Ingredients for the dough

• 1 packet of self raising flour
• 1 cup coffee oil
• 1 glass milk
• 1 sachet yeast
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon sugar
• ½ package of margarine

Ingredients for the filling

• 200 gr. feta cheese
• 70 gr. anthotiro or cream cheese
• 70 gr. mozzarella
• 60 gr. Parmesan
• 1 egg
• Pepper

• 2 egg yolks for spreads

METHOD

1. Sieve the flour and put it in a bowl with the yeast, sugar and salt and stir.
2. In the middle make a hole and add in there the oil and the milk and begin to knead until it becomes a dough like bread.
3. Let the dough a bit on the side and prepare the filling.
4. Grate all the cheeses, beat the egg, mix together and add the pepper.
5. Then take the dough and form an elongated loaf which cut into five equal pieces.
6. Take one piece and roll out a sheet the more rounded as we can.
7. Then take a knife and cut the sheet as follows:
   • Make a cross, thus dividing it into four pieces and then cut each piece in other two equal pieces, thus forming a total of 8 triangles.
8. Then take a spoonful of the mixture with the cheese and place the stuffing in the middle of our base of a triangular sheet, cover well with the two ends of the filling and roll so the little pie has the shape of croissants. Continue with the remaining pieces of dough.
9. Meanwhile smeared with margarine a large baking pan and place in it all the little pies with the nose to the bottom so they don’t open during baking.
10. Leave enough distance between them bacause it will swell.
11. Beat the 2 egg yolks with some water and brush on top to get color during baking.
12. Bake in the air for about 20′-25′ until golden.
