Trigona panoramatos is a traditional sweet pastry originating from the outskirts of Thessaloniki. These crispy and buttery triangular (cone-shaped) phyllo pastries are typically soaked in syrup and filled with creamy custard. The custard is usually made with a combination of egg yolks, flour, butter, milk, sugar, vanilla, and heavy cream.

The phyllo triangles are baked until golden brown, dipped in cold syrup consisting of sugar and water, and then filled with the chilled custard. Trigona is often garnished with chopped nuts before consumption.

Bougatsa is a traditional, rustic Greek pie consisting of a phyllo pastry layered with a filling of semolina custard, although there are variations with minced meat or cheese. The name of the dish is a derivation of the Ottoman word pogatsa, denoting a pie filled with cheese.

Bougatsa has origins from the Byzantine period, when Constantinople was Greek, and it began as a dough that was stuffed with numerous sweet and savory fillings. Over time, bougatsa evolved to incorporate a thinly rolled, hand-made phyllo pastry. As many Turkish immigrants settled in Northen Greece, bougatsa became a specialty of Serres and Thessaloniki. 

Fouskakia are traditional Greek donuts or loukoumades that are prepared on the islands of Skopelos and Alonnisos, in the northwest Aegean Sea. The name of this specialty derives from the Greek word foúska, meaning a bubble, referring to the typically small spherical shape of the fluffy fried pieces of dough which resemble bubbles.

These donuts are typically made with a simple batter of flour, water, and yeast, and once deep-fried in oil, they’re usually eaten while still warm. Fouskakia are usually enjoyed drizzled with honey on top and sprinkled with cinnamon or nuts, although they can also be accompanied by scoops of ice cream on the side.

Spanakopita is a Greek spinach pie consisting of a buttery, flaky phyllo pastry with a filling of cooked spinach, lemon juice, feta cheese, and sometimes dill. It can be served either as a small snack, an appetizer, or a light main course. Due to a farming tradition of handheld foods, the pies were originally invented for the field workers who would carry them in their pockets and consume them while working.

Although spanakopita has humble beginnings, it has risen to greater gastronomic heights, so today it can be found in most Greek diners, taverns, and upscale restaurants. It is likely that the dish originated 400 years ago, during the Turkish occupation of Greece, since a Turkish dish called ispanaki is almost identical in presentation. 

Tiropita is a popular Greek snack consisting of sheets of phyllo dough that are filled with a combination of cheese (usually feta) and eggs. The dish is typically wrapped in triangular pieces and brushed with melted butter before baking. This tasty pastry is found in almost every Greek bakery, although it is commonly served as an appetizer, when it is accompanied by numerous dips on the side.

There are several theories about its origin, but most link the dish with either Byzantine, Roman, or Turkish cuisine. Tiropita is mostly consumed in the mid-morning in Greece, since breakfast is usually reserved only for bread with butter and a cup of coffee. 

This traditional Greek dessert consists of numerous phyllo sheets that are sprinkled with melted butter and coupled with a light semolina custard. When baked and well-chilled, the pastry is traditionally doused in the orange spiced, sugary syrup, allowing the layers to absorb the flavors and transform galaktoboureko into a soft, velvety treat.

This Greek classic is commonly found in pastry shops and traditional taverns across the country.

These Greek pastries consist of two layers of yeasted dough. The dark-colored part is enriched with cocoa and cinnamon and is neatly wrapped with a layer of white, vanilla-flavored dough. Roxakia is then cut into bite-size pieces, and when baked, doused in a sweet syrup.

These pastries are best served well-chilled when they thoroughly soak up the syrup.

Skopelitiki tiropita is a type of Greek cheese-filled pastry (tiropita) that has been traditionally prepared on the island of Skopelos. The pastry uses local goat milk feta cheese and olive oil from the area of Skopelos for the filling, while the dough typically consists of all-purpose flour, olive oil, water, salt, and vinegar.

Once it reaches a soft and elastic consistency, the phyllo dough is rolled out, drizzled with olive oil, sprinkled with crumbled feta cheese, and shaped into a spiral. The spiral-shaped pastry is then usually deep-fried in hot oil until golden brown and crispy on both sides, although it can also be baked in an oven. 

Hortopita, from the Greek words horta, meaning wild greens (also a general term for greens in Greek), and pita, which means pie, is a traditional savory pastry that’s filled with a variety of wild or cultivated greens.

The pastry is typically made with phyllo dough, while apart from the greens, the filling usually contains aromatic herbs, crumbled cheese (such as feta cheese), and sometimes eggs. These pastries can be made with any combination of greens and herbs; therefore, there’s no set recipe for hortopita.
