Whipped feta is light, airy, and fluffy. It's an easy yet impressive recipe that takes only 5 minutes to make in a blender with 3 simple ingredients.

Whipped Feta

oz. block feta cheese

Greek yogurt

olive oil

crushed red pepper flakes (optional,

Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor or blender and process until smooth. If the texture is too thick, add in 1 teaspoon of water at a time until desired consistency is reached.

Transfer to a serving bowl and serve with a drizzle with olive oil and crushed red pepper flakes, if using.

I like that the cream cheese is added.  That cuts the sharpness of the feta which seems to have become more acidic over the years.  It may be my taste buds?  But I baked this.  YUM  I used to bake the feta and it melts and is creamy and now the cream cheese added gives it more creaminess and lightness.

Really wonderful and versatile, but it’s smoother with a creamier feta - like the French (Valbreso), Bulgarian, or REAL Greek.  I find the American crumbles too dry and (like Deb) too acidic.  If you use full fat yoghurt and a good feta I don’t think you need the cream cheese, but it can’t hurt!
