Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh cranberries, chopped
  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 4 large tortillas or 1 sheet puff pastry, rolled and cut into rectangles
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

Optional Add-ins

  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary or thyme, chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
  • Crushed red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a bowl, combine the chopped fresh cranberries, crumbled feta cheese, and drizzle with honey or maple syrup. Mix gently until the ingredients are evenly coated and flavorful.
  2. Prepare your base: Lay tortillas flat on a clean surface. If using puff pastry, roll it out and cut into rectangles large enough to hold the filling.
  3. Assemble the roll-ups: Spread a generous layer of the cranberry and feta mixture evenly over each tortilla or puff pastry piece, leaving a small edge for sealing. Add any optional herbs or nuts at this stage.
  4. Roll and seal: Carefully roll up each tortilla or puff pastry piece, tucking in the sides to keep the filling inside. For puff pastry, brush edges with water or beaten egg to help seal.
  5. Cook or bake: For tortillas, serve as is or warm lightly in a pan to soften. For puff pastry, bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes until golden and flaky.

Notes

  • Use fresh cranberries to maintain brightness and avoid sogginess caused by canned ones.
  • Drain excess moisture from cranberries if needed to prevent soggy pastries or tortillas.
  • Secure roll-ups with toothpicks if necessary before baking or serving.
  • Chill puff pastry roll-ups briefly after baking for neat slicing.
  • Experiment with herbs like rosemary, thyme, or za’atar for varied aromatic touches.
