How to Make Baklava Mini Bites
- Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter in a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat.
- Stir in 1/2 cup honey, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens slightly (about 5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a medium bowl, combine the cooled honey mixture, 1 cup chopped walnuts, and 1/2 cup raisins.
- Mix well to combine.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cut phyllo sheets in half crosswise. You will likely need about 10-12 sheets depending on size.
- Place approximately 1 1/2 tablespoons of the filling onto one end of each phyllo rectangle.
- Tightly roll up each phyllo rectangle starting from the long edge.
- Prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup melted butter, 2 tablespoons honey, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
- Brush the glaze evenly over the rolled baklava bites.
- Cut each roll into 1-inch slices using a sharp knife.
- Arrange the baklava slices, cut-side down, on an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Let stand for 1-2 minutes before removing from the baking sheet.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
