How to Make Almond Triangles Trigona

  1. Thaw phyllo dough overnight in the refrigerator. Do not thaw at room temperature.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  3. Lightly grease multiple baking sheets.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the almond filling ingredients: 1 cup ground almonds, ½ cup granulated sugar, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, ¼ cup olive oil, and 2 large eggs, until well combined.
  5. Unfold one sheet of phyllo and place it on a clean, flat surface. Brush lightly with melted butter.
  6. Top with a thin layer of almond filling, spreading evenly.
  7. Fold the phyllo in half, then in half again to form a triangle. Cut each large triangle into smaller triangles.
  8. Place the triangles onto prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each one.
  9. Brush the tops of the triangles with melted butter.
  10. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  11. Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
