As the holidays approach I thought it would be a perfect time to share these 3 easy appetizers using phyllo cups!

These sausage ranch cups (find the recipe HERE) have been a long time favorite, but I decided I wanted to mix it up and make some different flavors using these same phyllo cups!

You can find these is the frozen section of pretty much any grocery store. I have always grabbed the Athens brand that have 15 cups per box. Each cup is just a bite or two, so if you are making these for a crowd, be sure to grab more than one!

Rasberry Brie Pecan Bites

Sweet and savory…this was my family’s favorite of the three! You can easily change the jam flavor and make this SO many ways!

Ingredients:

2 boxes of Phyllo cups

1 8 oz round of brie

Jam of your choice- We used rasberry habenero

Chopped pecans (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375. Place cups on an ungreased cookie sheet. Put a spoonful of brie and a spoonful of jam in each cup. Top with chopped pecans. Bake 12-16 minutes, or until brie is melted.

Spinach Artichoke Bites

This is SO simple! It’s more of an idea than an actual recipe!

Ingredients:

2 boxes of Phyllo cups

Spinach and artichoke dip- I grabbed some pre-made from my grocery store’s deli, but feel free to make your own if you’d prefer

Parmesan cheese

Panko

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375. Place cups on an ungreased cookie sheet. Put a spoonful of spinach artichoke dip in each cup. Top with parmesan and panko. Bake 12-16 minutes, or until cheese is melted and panko toasted.

Maple Bacon Bites

Another sweet and savory option….and who doesn’t like bacon?!?

Ingredients:

2 boxes of Phyllo cups

4 oz cream cheese, softened

2 tablespoons of brown sugar

6 slices of bacon

Maple syrup

Directions:

Bake or fry your bacon about 80% of the way. It will bake more in the cup. Cut into small pieces. Preheat oven to 375. Preheat oven to 375. Place cups on an ungreased cookie sheet. Mix cream cheese and brown sugar. Put a spoonful of the cream cheese mixture in each cup. Top with bacon. Bake 12-16 minutes, or until bacon is desired crispness. Top with a drizzle of maple syrup
