Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 1 package Phyllo Dough Provides a flaky base; keep covered to prevent drying.
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Adds richness and ensures the phyllo crisps up beautifully; be generous when brushing.
For the Filling
  • 3/4 cup Semolina Flour Gives the creamy filling its unique texture and thickness.
  • 3 large Eggs Offer a rich structure to the filling, making it custard-like.
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar Sweetens the filling; reduce for a less sweet flavor.
  • 2 cups Whole Milk Supplies moisture and creaminess; substitute with almond milk for a dairy-free version.
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon Infuses warm flavor, enhancing the pie’s aromatic appeal.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg Adds subtle depth; optional but recommended.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt Balances sweetness and elevates the overall flavor profile.
For the Finish
  • 1/2 cup Honey Drizzled on top for natural sweetness and a sticky finish; agave nectar is a fantastic vegan alternative.
  • 2 tablespoons Toasted Sesame Seeds Adds crunch and a nutty flavor that's simply delightful.

Equipment

  • 9x13 inch baking dish
  • mixing bowl

Step-by-Step Instructions for Greek Honey Pie
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with unsalted butter.
  2. Layer one sheet of phyllo dough into the greased dish, then brush lightly with melted butter, adding six sheets total.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together semolina flour, eggs, sugar, milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until smooth.
  4. Pour the filling evenly over the phyllo base, then add another sheet of phyllo brushed with butter on top. Score the surface lightly.
  5. Bake for 40-45 minutes until golden brown. Allow to cool for 10 minutes.
  6. Drizzle warmed honey over the pie and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds before serving.
