Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 180°C and adjust oven rack to centre position. Roll out crescent dough and pinch together seams. Using a chef’s knife, cut into 24 squares; lengthwise into quarters and crosswise into sixths. Grease mini muffin tin with cooking spray and place squares into muffin tin slots.

Step 2

Fill each square with a piece of roasted red pepper, a cube of feta, and a sprinkle of thyme leaves and shallots. Season bites lightly with salt.

Step 3

Bake until dough is cooked through and golden, 15 to 17 minutes. Let it cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to serving platter and top with more fresh thyme leaves. Grate a light layer of lemon zest over the bites and serve.
