This is a fusion of Greek and Turkish baklava because I love the honey floral sweetness of Greek baklava but I hate the taste of cooked walnuts and I love pistachios like in the Turkish version. I add almonds for two reasons, I love almonds and to make it less expensive. Let’s face it, pistachios are crazy expensive. I use a mixture of pistachios and almonds but you can use any nut or blend of nuts you like. I also use a mixture of honey, 1/2 clover and 1/2 mountain flower. You can use pretty much any honey but make sure it’s not a super strong one. You may need only 1 box of phyllo but buy 2 just in case. I learned this the hard way. The box said 16 ounces but there was only 18 sheets so I had to be creative with my trimming and ended up with 34 layers so I adjusted accordingly.
