Feteer meshaltet (Egyptian Arabic: فطير مشلتت [fɪˈtˤiːr meˈʃæltet], literally "cushioned pies" or "cushion-like pies"), often simply referred to as meshaltet (مشلتت), is a flaky Egyptian layered pastry.

It consists of many thin layers of dough and ghee and an optional filling.

Plain meshaltet is usually soaked in honey and spread with jam or cheese or served with olives.

As such, it was served to American president Barack Obama during his visit to Egypt in June 2009.

[3] Egyptian families traditionally give it as gifts to visitors and friends.
