Phyllo Dough Triangles with Jam

If you want to make some delicious, tasty, and also original snacks, I suggest you try these small phyllo dough triangles with jam. They are super crunchy and disappear almost immediately, just the time to bake them. This is a little recipe I recommend keeping in mind when you have leftover phyllo dough sheets from other preparations. Unfortunately, it is a dough that is best consumed entirely once you open a package. However, not all the sheets are always used, so… what to do with those that remain? The answer is: these sweet triangles.

Ingredients for 10 Phyllo Dough Triangles with Jam

For this recipe, I used four phyllo sheets measuring 14.5 x 9.8 inches. You will need two sheets to make five triangles.

You can make these triangles with any type of jam or preserve. I can also see them being great with hazelnut cream, for the unrepentant sweet tooth. 

  • 4 sheets phyllo dough (14.5 x 9.8 inches)
  • jam or preserve (any flavor you like)
  • vegetable oil
  • milk
  • brown sugar

Tools

  • Brush
  • 1 Baking tray

Preparation of Phyllo Dough Triangles with Jam

  • Take the first sheet of phyllo dough and brush it with some vegetable oil. 

    Cover it with a second sheet and brush it with oil as well. 

  • Then cut five strips about 2.75 inches wide. 

  • Place a teaspoon of jam or preserve at the base of each strip and fold the phyllo dough diagonally over the filling as shown in the photo. 

  • Repeat this process diagonally to the end of the strip to form a triangle. 

  • Do the same with the other strips and place the 5 triangles obtained on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Follow the same procedure to make the other five triangles. 

  • Once ready, brush them with a little milk and sprinkle with brown sugar. 

  • Bake the phyllo dough triangles with jam in a preheated static oven at 356°F for about 10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy! Paola
