Ingredients
- 350g pack croissant dough
- 100g feta , crumbled
- 1 tbsp za'atar
- 1 egg , beaten
Method
Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Unroll the croissant dough and use a knife to separate the dough triangles. Scatter the feta and ½ tbsp of the za’atar over the dough triangles, pressing it all in with your hands.
Starting from the base of one triangle, roll the dough upwards towards the narrow point. Bend each end in slightly to form a croissant shape. Repeat with the remaining dough. Put the croissants on the lined baking tray, brush each one with beaten egg and sprinkle over the remaining za’atar. Bake for 15-20 mins until deep golden brown.
