Description

Pistachio Honey Baklava Rolls are a delightful dessert made with layers of flaky phyllo dough, filled with pistachios and drizzled with honey syrup.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (16 ounces) phyllo dough (thawed)
  • 1 cup unsalted pistachios (finely chopped)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine the finely chopped pistachios, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon. Mix well and set aside.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish (approximately 9×13 inches).
  3. Unroll the phyllo dough and cover it with a damp cloth to prevent it from drying out.
  4. Take one sheet of phyllo dough, brush it lightly with melted butter, and place another sheet on top. Repeat this process for about 4–5 sheets.
  5. Sprinkle a portion of the pistachio filling along one edge of the phyllo dough, leaving a small border.
  6. Carefully roll the phyllo dough over the filling to create a log shape. Place the rolled baklava seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with the remaining phyllo dough and filling.
  7. Using a sharp knife, cut the rolled baklava into slices about 1–2 inches thick.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  9. In a saucepan, combine the honey, water, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer for about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  10. Once the baklava is done baking, remove it from the oven and immediately pour the warm honey syrup over the hot baklava rolls, ensuring they are well coated.
  11. Allow the baklava to cool completely in the baking dish before serving.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.
  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg to the pistachio filling.
