Ingredients

Servings

• 6 sheet Phyllo pastry sheets
• 250 gram Mushrooms
• 1 medium Onion
• 2 clove Garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoon Butter
• 4 tablespoon Cream cheese
• 2 sprig Fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic cloves. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
3. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and become golden brown, about 10 minutes.
4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Transfer the mushroom mixture to a food processor.
5. Add the cream cheese, fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper to the food processor. Pulse until well combined and smooth.
6. Cut the phyllo pastry sheets into squares. Grease a muffin tin and line each cup with a square of phyllo pastry, allowing the edges to hang over the sides.
7. Spoon the mushroom pate mixture into each phyllo pastry cup.
8. Fold the overhanging phyllo pastry over the filling, creating a basket shape.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the phyllo pastry is golden brown and crispy.
10. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
