Check between the layers for sticking and sprinkle a little starch as needed.

4

Switch to a steel rolling pin for better rolling of the dough layers.

Place half of the rolled dough in the tray, ensuring even coverage.

Generously place walnuts on top of the dough in the tray.

Sprinkle melted butter between the layers of dough using a brush, applying it in small drops.

Bake the baklava in the oven at 170 degrees Celsius for about 1 hour, checking for doneness as it may vary by oven.

Once the baklava is baked, pour the hot syrup evenly over it and allow it to rest before serving.
