Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 Phyllo pastry sheets
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup Cream cheese, softened
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 2 cups Cooking oil (canola or vegetable)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, honey, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined and smooth.
Carefully unroll the phyllo pastry sheets and cover with a damp kitchen towel to prevent drying out.
On a dry, flat surface, gently lay out one sheet of phyllo pastry.
Brush the entire surface lightly with melted unsalted butter.
Place one or two tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture about two inches from the end of the pastry sheet.
Fold the edges over the filling and roll up the pastry into a tight log, sealing the edge with a small brush of melted butter.
Repeat the process for the remaining phyllo sheets and filling.
Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat until shimmering.
Carefully place 2-3 rolls in the hot oil, frying them until they are golden brown and crisp on all sides (approximately 2-3 minutes per side).
Using a slotted spoon, remove the rolls from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
For a touch of sweetness, sprinkle the hot dessert rolls with a mixture of sugar and a dash of additional cinnamon.
Serve warm and enjoy your low sodium fried dessert rolls!
