Baklava is one of the most famous desserts around the world. Usually, it’s made of layers of filo filled with chopped nuts and and held together with honey infused syrup. Even though it originates from Constantinople and no one really knows if it’s a Greek or a Turkish dessert, both countries are giving it justice with some phenomenal variations.

My variation comes in the form of Baklava tartlets. It’s unbelievably easy to prepare and bake and each tartlet is an individual portion so no need for cutting the dessert which makes it ideal for parties. A lot of people use pistachios for Baklava but I know that traditionally -where I come from at least- it’s mostly walnuts that are used and some almonds. You can use any nuts you like or have in hand really.

Right, let’s get baking my darlings!
