Vegan Baklava

Vegan Baklava
Tasty Vegan Baklava is a Middle Eastern Dessert dish. It is different from traditional baklava because it is egg-free and dairy-free. Beautiful layers of phyllo sheets are filled with chopped nuts, ground cinnamon, and syrup to enhance the dish’s aroma. This tasty dish gives soft, fluffy, sweet, crunchy, and juicy flavors. Easy-to-find vegan items used to cook this delicious dish are available in any supermarket or local market. Enjoy the yummy nutty baklava with friends and family.

Baklava Ingredients Notes
Phyllo Dough: Another name for it is filo pastry.
Cinnamon: Use a pinch to give a mild cinnamon flavor.
Vegan Oil: Instead of this, you can use vegan butter.
