Ingredients for Almond Triangles Trigona
How to Make Almond Triangles Trigona
- Thaw phyllo dough overnight in the refrigerator. Do not thaw at room temperature.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly grease multiple baking sheets.
- 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.
- Unfold one sheet of phyllo and place it on a clean, flat surface. Brush lightly with melted butter.
- Top with a thin layer of almond filling, spreading evenly.
- Fold the phyllo in half, then in half again to form a triangle. Cut each large triangle into smaller triangles.
- Place the triangles onto prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each one.
- Brush the tops of the triangles with melted butter.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
