The Savory Pie with Phyllo Dough in the Air Fryer is an amazing rustic dish, with a delicious filling of zucchini, potatoes, cheeses, and raw eggs that will cook in the cavities of the filling, all wrapped in a light and crispy shell. A perfect main dish for a family lunch or a picnic.
Phyllo dough, with its thin and flaky texture, pairs wonderfully with a variety of fillings, fresh vegetables, creamy cheeses, cold cuts, or flavorful meats—the possibilities are endless.

Steps
How to prepare the savory pie with phyllo dough in the air fryer
Trim the zucchini, wash and peel the potatoes, peel the onion. Using a large-holed grater, grate everything directly into the baking pan where you will cook the vegetables. Season with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, salt, pepper, and mix
Place the baking pan in the air fryer and cook at 340°F for 10 minutes, stirring a couple of times during cooking
The vegetables should remain slightly crunchy
Add the pecorino and the cheese cut into cubes and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary
Now unroll the phyllo dough and take 4 sheets. Brush with oil the first sheet and overlay the second
Continue for all the sheets you will use
Place the phyllo dough inside the baking pan that you have previously slightly greased
Add the filling, leveling it well and creating 3 grooves with the back of the spoon. If you want, you can add an egg, in this case, the grooves you need to create will be 4
Crack the eggs and place them in the space created
Close the phyllo dough and brush the surface with oil
Sprinkle the surface with sesame seeds and transfer the pan into the air fryer to cook
Cook at 340°F for the first 10 minutes, raise to 355°F and continue for another 7
Here it is, ready to win you over: every bite will be a celebration of flavors and texture!
