richanddelish.com

This super delicious pistachio baklava is buttery, sweet, flakey, nutty, gooey, and surprisingly easy to make!

In a medium mixing bowl, add the ground pistachios and the cinnamon. Mix until well combined.

Trim the phyllo dough to fit in your baking pan. Add 7 sheets of phyllo dough into the pan.

And brush every sheet of dough with melted butter.

Sprinkle ⅕ of the pistachio mixture on top of the buttered phyllo and spread it evenly.

Top the pistachio mixture with another 5 sheets of phyllo sheets, buttering every sheet with melted butter.

Repeat four times until you run out of pistachios.

Top the last batch of pistachios with more 5 sheets of phyllo and brush with butter.

Use a sharp knife to cut the baklava into 4 rows lengthwise, and then cut diagonally so that each piece of baklava is in the shape of a diamond.

Bake in a 160c (320f) preheated oven for 1 hour or until the baklava is golden brown.

Remove the baklava from the oven and immediately drizzle the honey syrup all over the baklava.
