Remove from oven and recut through all lines. Great recipe for Baklava with Lemon Syrup. I'm not really a syrup kind of pastry fan, I am more of a white chocolate with strawberry fan. :) But because I do love to cook and bake I decided to make this Greek Syrup Pastry.

To get started with this recipe, we have to prepare a few components. You can cook baklava with lemon syrup using 9 ingredients and 3 steps. Here is how you cook it.

The ingredients needed to make Baklava with Lemon Syrup:

1. Take 1 cup Almonds crushed
2. Prepare 1 cup Walnuts crushed
3. Prepare 1 tablespoon Cinnamon powder
4. Make ready 250 gram Butter melted
5. Prepare 700 grams Baklava dough sheets
6. Prepare Syrup
7. Get 2/5 cups Sugar
8. Take 2 cups water
9. Prepare 1 Lemon Peel

Reduce the heat and stir in the lemon rind and juice. Leave the syrup to cool in the pan. When the baklava is ready, remove it from the oven and gradually pour the cold syrup over the piping hot pastry. It's as simple as this: blitz walnuts or pistachios until they are fine crumbs.

Steps to make Baklava with Lemon Syrup:

1. Start off by making the syrup, so that this has cooled off by the time the pastry is done. In a sauce pan add the Sugar, Water, Lemon Peel let this boil at medium heat. You will know when the syrup is ready by doing this test, take a knife and just pour two drops of the syrup to the tip of the knife tip it over, if the syrup rolls off slowly then its ready. :)
2. While the syrup is boiling, melt the butter and set aside. Separate the dough sheets into two halves, then take a baking pan and brush the pan with the butter and start adding in a dough sheet, one at a time…and brush each sheet with butter. Add and brush very simple to do. When you have finished the first half of the dough sheets, add in the mixture. Take all the excess dough sheets and cover the mixture, butter the sheets and continue adding the rest of the dough sheets and butter.
3. If you have left over butter spread it over the top of the Baklava and brush thoroughly. With a sharp knife start cutting into the pie and cut small pieces diagonally, but keep in mind not to cut all the way down, cut just so that you have made small pieces. Bake until golden brown at 180 degrees. Once your Baklava has been baked, pour on the cold syrup and let it sit until the syrup has been absorbed. :) Kali Orexi!

Alternate with layers of phyllo pastry, brushing every sheet with butter, and walnuts. Cut into diamonds, bake, pour over honey lemon syrup. Stir in vanilla and remove from heat. Spoon over warm (not hot) baklava and cool completely before serving. Whereas it is most common to find baklava made entirely with walnuts here in Greece, I prefer a combination with almonds.
