Greek Baklava Greek Baklava
My Greek Yiayia (meaning Grandmother in Greek) raised me after my mom died when I was 6 years old. She is from the Peloponnese part of Greece and she always made Baklava and other Greek foods as well. We lived in ALABAMA so she used the pecans from her pecan tree. This was a task because she gathered, cracked and cleaned all of the pecans herself and then milled them with an old fashioned hand turned grinder that she clamped to the side of the kitchen table. She made everything from scratch and I am truly blessed to be raised by her !! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ #baklava #greek

Rolled Baklava Rolled Baklava
Baklava, in its simplest form, because simple things are always a success.*The secret to good baklava, as my mom used to say, is the aroma of the butter combined with the scents of cinnamon and clove.*A very quick dessert that comes together easily as long as you have the ingredients.
