You can have Baklava using 5 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook it.
Ingredients of Baklava
- You need 15 sheets of pastry.

A layer of chopped nuts—typically walnuts or pistachios, but hazelnuts are also sometimes used—is placed on top, then more layers of filo. Most recipes have multiple layers of filo and nuts, though some have only top and bottom pastry. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. When you remove the baklava from the oven, drizzle half the saucepan evenly all over the top.
