Hello, dear readers! It's been a while since my last blog post, but I'm thrilled to be back!
Ready to share some new, easy, and incredibly delicious recipes with you. Today, I'm bringing you a delightful treat – homemade Baklavas.
One of the reasons I love this recipe is its sheer simplicity. You can whip up a batch of 10 large, loaded baklavas in just an hour.
My Personal Notes:
-
Almond Prep: I used whole raw almonds with the skins on and used a Nutribullet to grind them into an almond meal. You don't need to make it super fine; leaving some larger almond chunks won't affect the outcome.
-
Orange Choice: While I used a naval orange for this recipe because of its scent, any regular orange will work just fine.
-
Baking Rings vs. Without: I tried two batches – one with baking rings and one without. Both turned out okay; the dough didn't unfold without the rings. But, admittedly, the ones with the rings looked a bit better.
-
Enhanced Flavor: To extract more aromatic oils, I recommend rubbing the orange zest with the sugar before using it.
Enjoy!
