Even better, switch your pastry from shortcrust or puff to filo. This is the lowest-fat pastry by far, with 2.9g fat per 100g. This compares with 26.2g for puff or 31.4g for shortcrust. Filo is the lowest-calorie option too, and it’s easy to use.

And there are reasons to feel good about phyllo: Because the dough has no trans fat, no saturated fat, no cholesterol and just 160 calories per 5 sheets, it makes the perfect substitute for puff pastry, ready-made piecrusts and refrigerated pie dough.

Filo – a healthier alternative Short pastry, the least fatty of regular pastries, has around 250 grams of butter in a quantity that would be used for a large pie or quiche; based on eight serves, that’s more than 30 grams of fat per person from the pastry alone!

Winner: Filo pastry Edmonds Flaky Puff Pastry is similar to a homemade flaky pastry — it’s high in both total and saturated fat. The reduced-fat version has half the amount of fat and saturated fat, but filo has little saturated fat, leaving room for some saturated fat in the rest of your meal.

Each 1-ounce serving of phyllo dough contains 1.7 grams of fat, or less than 3 percent of the daily value, and less than 0.5 grams of saturated fat. Saturated fat raises your total and unhealthy LDL cholesterol levels and increases your risk of developing heart disease.

Filo – a healthier alternative The meat pie after all could be considered our national dish! Puff or flaky pastries, used in meat pies, have double that quantity of fat – and it’s not usually heart-friendly fat. Filo pastry has a huge health advantage because there is no fat in the mix.
