Ingredients
  

Fillo Pastry and Filling
  • 10 sheets Fillo pastry sheets
  • 1 cup Fresh figs, sliced
  • 8 oz Brie cheese, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons Honey
  • 3 tablespoons Butter, melted For greasing and layering
  • 1/4 cup Chopped nuts (optional) Use as a garnish
  • Salt To taste
  • Pepper To taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly grease a pie dish with some melted butter.
  3. Layer one sheet of fillo pastry into the baking dish and brush lightly with melted butter; repeat with 5 more sheets.
  4. Evenly layer the sliced figs over the pastry, then distribute the Brie slices on top.
  5. Drizzle honey over the filling and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Top with the remaining fillo sheets, brushing each with butter.
  7. Crumple the top layer of pastry gently to create the 'crinkle' effect.
  8. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy.
  9. If using, sprinkle chopped nuts over the pie shortly before it finishes baking.
  10. Remove from oven, let cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve warm.

Notes

For substitutions, try replacing figs with pears or apples for a different flavor. Keep an eye on the pastry while baking to prevent burning. If any pastry tears, layer them as needed.
