Walnut Baklava Recipe

Instructions

1. 1

   For the syrup, put sugar and water in a pot and bring to a boil. After it boils, add lemon juice, boil for a few more minutes, and leave to cool.

2. 2

   For the dough, mix eggs, oil, milk, vinegar, and salt. Gradually add the flour and knead until you get a dough that does not stick to the hands.

3. 3

   Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

4. 4

   Divide the rested dough first into 3 pieces, then divide each of those into 9 pieces to make a total of 27 dough balls. Cover them to prevent them from drying out.

5. 5

   Roll out the first 9 balls to the size of a plate using starch, sprinkle starch between them, and stack them.

6. 6

   Roll out this 9-layered group to the size of the baking tray and place it in the tray, gently separating the layers.

7. 7

   Sprinkle the crushed walnuts over the layer.

8. 8

   Prepare the next 9 balls in the same way, place them in the tray, and sprinkle walnuts again.

9. 9

   Roll out the last 9 balls and place them on top.

10. 10

    Cut the baklava into your desired shape.

    Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C for approximately 1 hour.
