Ingredients

For the Bites

  • 15 pieces frozen mini fillo shells (like Athens brand)
  • 3 pieces Mini Babybel Light cheese, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons sweetened dried cranberries, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons chopped pecans

Seasonings

  • 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350℉ (175℃).
  • Place the mini fillo shells on a baking sheet, leaving a little space between them.
  • Evenly distribute the chopped Mini Babybel cheese into each shell.

Baking

  • Bake the shells in the preheated oven for about 8 minutes, or until they are lightly browned and the cheese is melted.
  • After removing the shells from the oven, evenly distribute the chopped cranberries and pecans among the cheesy bites.
  • Finally, sprinkle a tiny bit of cinnamon on top of each shell for an extra layer of flavor.

Notes

These bites are great served on a platter and pair well with a light salad or drink. You can garnish with fresh parsley or mint for a nice touch. Prepare them in advance by storing assembled shells in the refrigerator before baking.
