Baklava is a traditional Middle Eastern dessert known for its rich, sweet, and nutty flavors. This recipe for Walnut and Pistachio Baklava combines the crunch of walnuts and pistachios with the sweetness of honey and zesty notes of lemon, making it a delectable treat for any occasion.
- To ensure your baklava is perfectly crispy, be sure not to over-saturate the layers with butter. Lightly brush each layer instead.

- Cut your baklava before baking to make it easier to serve once it’s baked and cooled.
- If you prefer a more traditional flavor, omit the garlic from the ingredients.
- Toast the nuts lightly before using them to enhance their flavor.
