Ingredients

1/2 cup pistachios

1/2 cup walnuts

1/2 cup almonds

1 lemon, zested

1/4 cup, plus 3 tablespoons sugar

2 tablespoons butter, melted

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 boxes mini filo shells, 15 shells each

1/2 cup water

1/4 cup honey

Directions

Special equipment: 2 (12-cup) mini cupcake pans, food processor Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Place pistachios, walnuts and almonds on a baking sheet and toast in oven until golden and fragrant, about 8 minutes.

Let nuts cool slightly and add to a food processor along with the lemon zest, 3 tablespoons of sugar, butter, cinnamon, salt, and vanilla and pulse to combine.

Place mini fillo shells in wells of 2 mini cupcake pans.

Add 1 teaspoon of the nut mixture into each shell.

Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until reduced and slightly thickened, 8 to 10 minutes.

Pour 1 teaspoon syrup into each cup and allow it to soak in, then repeat with another teaspoon.

I make baklava all the time and it takes so long to butter each sheet of the dough while trying to keep the rest from drying out. This would be so much easier! Great post. Five forks.
