How to Make Burek Or Feta Cheese Phyllo Pie
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, crumble the feta cheese. Add the eggs, olive oil, and milk. Stir until well combined. Season generously with salt, pepper, and oregano.
- Lay out one sheet of phyllo dough in the prepared pan. Brush lightly with melted butter. Repeat with remaining sheets, overlapping slightly, to form 6-8 layers.
- Pour the feta cheese mixture evenly over the phyllo layers.
- Fold the overhanging edges of the phyllo dough over the filling to create a rustic top.
- Brush the top with melted butter for extra crispiness and golden color.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the phyllo is golden brown and the filling is heated through.
- Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm!
