  • Combine the almonds, sugar, & cinnamon in a bowl. Gently melt the butter until just hot then add the almond mixture. Stir continuously until the mixture browns slightly, remove from heat.
  • Let the mixture cool then briskly beat the egg in with it. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Note: Make sure to keep the phyllo dough under a damp towel or it will dry out.
  • Fold each phyllo dough in half making a long thin strip. Place 2 tbsp of mixture at one end & make a triangle packet by folding one side over the filling, continue until the last section. Brush the last fold with egg yoke to seal. Set aside --.
  • Heat the oil & fry the triangles on each side for 1 minute. Finish cooking in the oven for 3 minutes. Place the triangles in a serving dish & pour the heated honey over them.
