01 Step
Recipe View
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View
In a small bowl, gently combine the crumbled feta cheese, finely chopped green onions, and beaten egg until well mixed. (5 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View
On a lightly floured surface, unfold the thawed puff pastry. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the pastry into 12 equal squares (approximately 3 inches each). (5 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View
Place a generous, mounded tablespoon of the feta mixture in the center of each pastry square. Lightly moisten the edges of the pastry with a touch of water to aid in sealing. (5 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View
Carefully fold the pastry over the filling to form a triangle. Press the edges together firmly with a fork to create a decorative, sealed border. (10 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and cold water to create the egg wash. Lightly brush the top of each pastry with the egg wash for a golden, glossy finish. (5 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View
Arrange the prepared pastries on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one. (2 minutes)
08 Step
Recipe View
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed, golden brown, and the filling is heated through. (20 minutes)
09 Step
Recipe View
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of dried oregano or red pepper flakes to the feta cheese mixture.
Ensure the puff pastry is thoroughly thawed but still cold to prevent it from becoming sticky and difficult to work with.
For best results, use a high-quality feta cheese with a rich, tangy flavor.
The pastries can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking. Add 2-3 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
These foldovers are delicious served with a side of tzatziki sauce or a simple green salad.
