Baklava Cinnamon Rolls
Report
With the help of store-bought puff pastry, these Baklava Cinnamon Rolls are a cinch to taste together and taste EXACTLY like their namesake - cinnamon rolls meet baklava.

Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups pistachio raw and unsalted
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup brown sugar packed
- 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp white sugar
- 1/2 tsp maldon salt
- 2 heets puff pastry thawed
- 4 tbsp butter melted
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/8 cup honey
Instructions
- Place a rack in the bottom third of the oven. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter or grease a quarter baking sheet or 9x12 baking pan with non-stick spray.
- Add nuts, brown sugar, 2 tablespoons white sugar and cinnamon to a food processor. Pulse until the nuts are finely chopped. You want mostly very small pieces, but also a few bigger ones. (See photo). Add salt and pulse one more time. You don't want the salt to be broken up!
- Slightly roll out each sheet of puffy pastry on a lightly floured board or surface. Brush each sheet with two tablespoons of butter. Evenly sprinkle the nut and sugar mixture between the two sheets. Roll up jelly roll-style. Cut the very ends off of the rolls, so you have an even edge. Cut evenly into 16 equal rolls.
- Place the rolls, nut side-down in prepared baking dish. Bake until golden brown and cooked through, about 25-30 minutes. Keep and eye on them and make sure they don't burn.
- While the rolls cook, make the syrup. Add remaining sugar, water, honey and lemon juice to a small sauce pan. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer until thickened, about five minuets. Set aside.
- When the rolls come out of the oven, let them rest for 2 minutes. Pour the syrup on top. Serve after a few minutes. Can also be left at room temperature for a few hours.
