For the Chili Honey:

• ¼ cup honey
• ½ tsp red chili flakes (adjust to taste)
• 1 tsp lime or lemon juice

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with cooking spray.

Place a small amount of feta cheese (about 1 tsp) in the center of each wonton wrapper. Sprinkle with oregano. Fold the edges over and seal by brushing lightly with beaten egg.

3. Bake the Rolls
Arrange the rolls on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the tops with cooking spray. Bake for 18–20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

4. Make the Chili Honey
While the rolls bake, combine honey, red chili flakes, and lime or lemon juice in a small saucepan. Warm over low heat, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.

5. Serve
Drizzle the warm chili honey over the hot rolls just before serving. Enjoy immediately for maximum crispness.
