Preparation for the vegan baklava recipe

Before you start preparing, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients on hand. You may need to order some special ingredients in advance or look for them in an international supermarket. But don't worry, it will definitely be worth it 😉.

Ingredients for vegan baklava

For the recipe you will need the following ingredients:

• 1 package filo dough
• 200 g mixed nuts (walnuts, pistachios, hazelnuts)
• 100 g sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 150 ml maple syrup
• 100 g vegan margarine
• 1 lemon peel

Tools for the preparation

You will need the following tools:

• Baking pan
• Mixer for the nuts
• Knife for crushing the nuts and cutting the baklava
• Brush to brush the dough

Step 1: Prepare the nut mixture

Mix the nuts, sugar and cinnamon in a blender. The mixture should not be too finely ground. The texture should remain rather coarse and crunchy. 👍

Step 2: Prepare the filo dough

Spread out the filo dough and cut it to fit the baking pan. If the dough seems too dry, you can moisten it with a little water. 😎

Step 3: Layers of the baklava

Place a layer of filo pastry in the baking dish and brush with the melted vegan margarine. Repeat until about half of the dough is in the mold. Then sprinkle the nut mixture evenly over the top. Cover the nut mixture with the remaining filo dough, again brushing each layer with margarine. 😊

Step 4: Baking the baklava

Bake the baklava in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for about 40 minutes or until golden brown. Make sure that the baklava does not burn. 🔥

Step 5: Soaking the baklava with maple syrup

After the baklava is baked, let it cool a bit. Then drizzle it with maple syrup and sprinkle the grated lemon zest. Let the baklava sit overnight. Enjoy your meal! 😍
