ingredients

Prepare the bottom of your pan (I use a 9x13x2-inch pan) by brushing it with aquafaba mix or butter so it doesn’t stick.

[{"selector":"#anim-34447e15-2b9c-4586-adfd-e36b407bc3d5","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e982f070-cd03-4623-8e05-e2bcbc984717","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-115.18988%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-cbf3273a-bcf6-4bc8-8bc7-54b09ab849b3","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ff2988b5-2eae-4a42-bcd0-f69daee4c900","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-120.16808%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] See Recipe

Next, lay one phyllo sheet at the bottom of the pan, brushing it with aquafaba mix or butter.

[{"selector":"#anim-562bcec7-508c-4e03-9050-cafe4b9bb5f9","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3c40d696-d31b-494d-b980-b53228d17190","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-117.92114%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-11f48281-494d-4815-aaa3-ba8fbf1bc952","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-382b2e12-168d-4154-826b-bffb33794fde","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-119.04763%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] See Recipe

Then, spread one thin layer of nuts and cover that with one phyllo sheet.

[{"selector":"#anim-82db4660-4d07-4898-af1a-6b0ea3dc7095","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ee28b403-c40e-4e02-8811-87630f36f3fc","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-116.05352%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ba015185-caa3-485c-907a-49e93196ec64","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-84bcb6c3-9bb9-4134-9779-d526c698e5e3","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-119.04763%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] See Recipe

With a sharp knife, I cut the baklava into either squares or triangles.

[{"selector":"#anim-6b2cdc12-0400-47f7-b94a-5e87b92451fc","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-27f2164f-4add-44bc-844e-e29ce4476fe6","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-117.45455%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c2e013fb-9d06-486f-9762-5c8f27a6dba9","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-5abc947c-5b2a-4670-be42-1b01c40c4ffc","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-119.27712%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] See Recipe

Now, I recommend inserting a clove in the center of each triangle to hold the phyllo sheets together.

[{"selector":"#anim-384f9c7c-0c84-4d75-8306-27a3323457b6","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-67f256a6-da6c-4e47-b486-19a857545f7a","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-115.89405%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-325c54ad-09de-4b49-8e39-881882502b1c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-13c60a8f-c83a-4b1a-a4c0-5f24f776d641","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-130.37976%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":400,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] See Recipe
