Maltese Pastizzi
Pastizzi are a traditional snack in Malta and can be bought everywhere. They come filled with peas or ricotta. I fell in love with pastizzi in Malta and believe they should also be enjoyed in Denmark! They are super easy and quick to make and get a delicious crust from the crispy phyllo dough. Original pastizzi have an elongated shape, but I have chosen to make them as squares here.
