Grind the walnuts and melt the butter.
Layer the pastry sheets in a tray, brushing melted butter between them.
Sprinkle walnuts over every 3 or 4 layers.
Cut into baklava pieces and bake at 170C for 45 minutes.
Prepare the syrup by boiling the sugar and water, then add the lemon juice.
Pour the cold syrup over the hot baklava.
Baklava porsiyonlarını ceviz vurgusuyla tamamlayıp ikram edin.
💡 Tip: If the baklava is hot, the syrup should be cold. If the baklava has cooled, use warm syrup. When both are hot, the layers will not absorb it properly.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve once the syrup has settled, with tea or a small scoop of plain ice cream.
