This Baklava Ice Cream Sundae combines the traditional flavors of Middle Eastern baklava with minimal effort. It features layers of crispy phyllo dough, store-bought vanilla ice cream, aromatic spiced nuts, and warmed honey, all ready in just 10 minutes. Perfect for delighting guests, friends, and family!
Ingredients
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4-6 sheets phyllo dough, torn into pieces the size of a deck of cards
1/2 cup crushed walnuts
1/2 cup crushed pistachios
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp brown sugar
8 scoops vanilla ice cream
1/2 cup honey warmed, or maple syrup
Directions
Fry the phyllo sheets: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, heat about 1/4 cup of oil until shimmering. Once the oil is hot, add the phyllo and fry, turning, until it’s crispy and golden brown on both sides (about 1 to 2 minutes per side). Use a pair of tongs to transfer the crispy phyllo to a large paper towel-lined plate lined to drain any excess oil.
Season the nuts: In a small bowl, combine the walnuts, pistachios, cinnamon, and brown sugar.
Assemble and serve: In four small serving cups, add a bit of the crispy phyllo to the bottom. Top with one scoop of the ice cream, followed by a tablespoon of the nut mixture, and a drizzle of warmed honey. Add more of the crispy phyllo and repeat in the same pattern, adding a scoop of ice cream, more nuts, and a drizzle of honey to finish. Serve immediately.
