Add 100 grams of low-fat cream cheese to the cheese mixture.

Whisk 4 eggs and add them to the cheese mixture along with salt, pepper, and 2 dessert spoonfuls of olive oil.

Prepare a pie dish with non-stick baking paper at the bottom.

Layer two sheets of phyllo pastry in the bottom of the dish, buttering them well.

Spread a thin layer of the cheese mixture over the phyllo pastry.

Continue layering phyllo sheets and cheese mixture until reaching the top of the dish, buttering each layer.

Fold the edges of the phyllo pastry over the top layer before baking.

Bake in the preheated oven for around 50 minutes.
