Filo pastry recipes

Wonderfully flaky and satisfying crispy, filo pastry is a truly versatile ingredient. Discover our favourite filo pastry recipes below.

Ideal for adding texture to sweet or savoury dishes, use filo in desserts including our chocolate tahini ruffle pie and honey, sesame and filo cheesecake puddings or to create stand-out mains, such as Ottolenghi’s curried cauliflower cheese pie.

We’ve got filo pastry recipe classics too, such as spring rolls, spanakopita, cherry strudel and baklava (plus a chocolate version), as well as alternative ideas using this thrifty ingredient. These sausage rolls with cider and apple use filo rather than puff pastry for an extra-crunchy finish – and this salmon pie is topped with filo for the same effect.

Check out our best shortcrust pastry ideas and puff pastry recipes too.
