None None Date Jam
1 cup pitted dates, chopped
2 tbsp granulated sugar
None None Milk Pie
8 sheets filo dough
4 tbsp butter, melted
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup 2% milk
2 None egg yolks

1
Preheat oven to 350u00b0F. Lightly grease 4 - 5 inch pie dishes. Place on a baking tray.
2
To make the date jam, bring dates, sugar and 1/2 cup water to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-6 mins, until thick. Let cool.
3
Brush 2 sheets of filo dough with butter and layer together. Spread 1/4 of the date jam along center then scrunch short ends towards each other in even folds (like a fan without pleats). Roll up into a loose spiral and fit inside of a prepared dish. Repeat with remaining filo dough, butter and jam. Bake for 8-10 mins, until pastry is crisp and slightly golden.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
