Oven Fried Feta Rolls

Oven fried feta rolls take me back to a cozy afternoon when I wanted something savory yet flaky because I had friends coming over unexpectedly. I quickly wrapped creamy feta with puff pastry, baked them until golden, and the aroma filled the kitchen. The first bite was warm, cheesy, and perfectly crisp.

Since then, this recipe has been a favorite for gatherings because it’s simple, elegant, and full of flavor. The combination of creamy feta and crispy pastry makes these rolls irresistible every single time.

Ingredients

Here’s what I use for this recipe. You can always make substitutions if you prefer!

• Puff pastry – Buttery and flaky, forming the perfect roll
• Feta cheese – Creamy, tangy, and full of flavor
• Olive oil – Adds richness and helps with browning
• Fresh herbs – Brings a fresh, aromatic finish
• Garlic powder – Adds a mild, savory depth
• Egg wash – For a golden, shiny crust
• Salt and pepper – To enhance all flavors
• Tools You’ll Need
• Baking sheet – To bake the rolls evenly
• Parchment paper – Prevents sticking and ensures easy cleanup
• Knife – To cut the puff pastry and feta
• Pastry brush – For applying the egg wash
• Mixing bowl – To mix herbs and seasonings

Instructions

Step 1

I start by preheating the oven to 400°F and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

I roll out the puff pastry and cut it into strips wide enough to wrap the feta filling.

Step 3

I crumble feta into a bowl, mix it with a drizzle of olive oil, garlic powder, and herbs.

Step 4

I place a spoonful of the feta mixture on each strip of pastry, then roll them up tightly.

Step 5

I brush the tops with egg wash to achieve a beautiful golden finish.

Step 6

I bake them for 15-18 minutes, or until they’re puffed and golden brown.

Step 7

I sprinkle more fresh herbs over the warm rolls before serving.

Tips

I sometimes add a touch of honey or chili flakes to the feta filling for a sweet and spicy kick. You can also use a mix of cheeses for a richer flavor. Serve them with a dipping sauce like tzatziki for extra goodness.

Ways to Serve

These rolls are perfect as appetizers, party snacks, or even a light lunch with a side salad. They’re also great to serve at brunch or as a warm starter for dinner.
