Baklava

Baklava is a rich, sweet pastry made of layers of filo dough, filled with chopped nuts (often walnuts, pistachios, or almonds), and sweetened with honey or syrup. It’s a popular dessert in many Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and Balkan cuisines. The combination of crunchy filo layers and sticky sweet syrup makes it a favorite treat at celebrations and gatherings. Here’s a simple recipe for making baklava at home:

Ingredients:

  • For the Baklava:
    • 1 package of filo dough (about 16 oz, thawed if frozen)
    • 2 cups of mixed nuts (walnuts, pistachios, or almonds, finely chopped)
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
    • 1 ½ cups unsalted butter, melted (for brushing the layers)
  • For the Syrup:
    • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
    • 1 cup water
    • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
    • 1 tablespoon honey
    • 1 cinnamon stick (optional)
