Baklava

1: Place all filling ingredients (walnuts, cashews, pistachios, ghee, sugar, cinnamon) in a food processor and process lightly to avoid a cakey texture.

2: Melt the ghee and cut the filo dough in half to fit your tray.

3: Preheat the oven to 300°F.

4: Spread 1/4 cup of ghee at the bottom of the tray.

5: Layer the nut filling and cover with the remaining half of the filo dough.

6: Generously smother the top with the remaining ghee.

7: Bake for approximately one and a half hours.

8: For the simple syrup, simmer 2 cups of sugar with 1 cup of water until combined, then squeeze in the lemon and set aside to cool.

9: Immediately after the baklava is finished baking, drizzle the simple syrup over it and allow it to rest.
