Claire Saffitz Makes Perfect Holiday Phyllo Pie | Dessert Person
In this episode, Claire Saffitz creates her fan-favorite Honeyed Nut & Phyllo Pie, an ideal dessert for the holiday season. This pie, a large-format twist on baklava, owes its deliciousness not just to the honeyed nut filling but also to the phyllo itself, which is layered with Kerrygold butter and sugar, caramelizing beautifully in the oven. The tart’s styling draws inspiration from Pastis Gascon, a traditional apple pie from the Gascony region of France, known for its rustic, folded phyllo. Follow along to make this stunning dessert for a crowd this holiday season!
