- walnuts
- pistachios
- sugar
- cinnamon
- 2 sticks butter
- phyllo sheets
Lay a phyllo sheet in the pan and lightly butter it; repeat six times.
Sprinkle half the nuts over, reaching all the edges. Top with a phyllo sheet and butter it.
Layering phyllo, butter and nuts
Sprinkle on the remaining nuts to the edges, then layer seven more phyllo sheets on top, buttering each.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350F for 40 minutes, rotating the pan halfway so it browns evenly.

Pour the syrup over the whole baklava, seal airtight and let it sit overnight.
