Ingredients
- 8 Phyllo pastry sheets
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup Cream cheese, softened
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 2 cups Cooking oil (canola or vegetable)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, honey, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined and smooth.
Step 2
Carefully unroll the phyllo pastry sheets and cover with a damp kitchen towel to prevent drying out.
Step 3
On a dry, flat surface, gently lay out one sheet of phyllo pastry.
Step 4
Brush the entire surface lightly with melted unsalted butter.
Step 5
Place one or two tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture about two inches from the end of the pastry sheet.
Step 6
Fold the edges over the filling and roll up the pastry into a tight log, sealing the edge with a small brush of melted butter.
Step 7
Repeat the process for the remaining phyllo sheets and filling.
Step 8
Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat until shimmering.
Step 9
Carefully place 2-3 rolls in the hot oil, frying them until they are golden brown and crisp on all sides (approximately 2-3 minutes per side).
Step 10
Using a slotted spoon, remove the rolls from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 11
For a touch of sweetness, sprinkle the hot dessert rolls with a mixture of sugar and a dash of additional cinnamon.
Step 12
Serve warm and enjoy your low sodium fried dessert rolls!
