For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a splash of vanilla extract to the custard. Be sure to keep the phyllo dough covered with a damp towel while you're working with it to prevent it from drying out and becoming brittle. If the phyllo dough starts to brown too quickly during baking, tent the dish with foil. Leftover galaktoboureko can be gently reheated in the oven or microwave, but it's also delicious cold!
