How to Make Passover Baklava
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine the melted butter, honey, and lemon zest (if using).
- Lightly brush each phyllo sheet with the butter mixture, layering them in a 9x13 inch baking pan. Let some sheets overhang the sides for easy pulling after baking.
- Once you have used about half of your phyllo sheets, sprinkle evenly with half of the chopped nuts.
- Continue layering with the remaining phyllo sheets and top with the remaining nuts.
- Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the baklava into diamond or square shapes before baking.
- Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Let the baklava cool completely in the pan before drizzling with the remaining honey and sprinkling with powdered sugar.
- For best results, let it sit for at least 24 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
