5.0 (1)
50 min.
Ingredients
  • 1 package of phyllo dough
  • 1 kg sugar
  • 400 g walnuts
  • 350 g butter
  • ½ teaspoon lemon juice
Preparation
  1. Mix the crushed walnuts with cinnamon. Sprinkle each layer of dough generously with the mixture and stack them.
  2. Melt the butter until boiling and pour it over the dough while it is still hot.
  3. Roll the dough and cut it into slices. Bake the baklava at 180 degrees in a preheated oven.
  4. Once baked, remove it and let it cool and dry for at least 24 hours.
  5. The next day, prepare the syrup by mixing 1 kg of sugar with 1 liter of water and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, then bring to a boil.
  6. Do not boil for too long to prevent the syrup from thickening. Pour the syrup over the baklava and let it absorb for another 24 hours.
