Mga Baklava Cookies
Ingredients
- ¾ tasa Flour ng Almond - (tala 1)
- ¼ tasa Tapioca Starch - (tala 2)
- ¼ kutsarita Baking soda
- ½ kutsarita kanela
- 3 tablespoons Langis ng niyog - (note 4) melted
- 3 tablespoons Matamis - I use vegan honey (note 3)
- ½ kutsarita Orange Zest - (tala 5)
- ¼ tasa Mga almasiga
- ¼ tasa Mga nogales
Orange Honey Syrup
- 2 kutsara Orange juice
- 3 tablespoons Orange marmelada - (tala 6)
- 3 tablespoons Matamis - I use vegan honey (note 3)
- ½ kutsarita kanela
tagubilin
- Painitin ang oven sa 350°F (180°C). Lagyan ng parchment paper ang isang malaking baking sheet. Lagyan ng kaunting mantika ang papel gamit ang cooking oil spray. Itabi.
- In a NutriBullet, add the walnuts and pistachios. Pulse 2-3 times for 3 seconds each time, scraping down the sides of the jug. You want a fine ground. It's ok to have a few larger bites, but not too big. Don't over-blend or it will turn into a paste.
- Set aside 2 tablespoons of the walnut/pistachio meal. You will use this to decorate the cookies later.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the remaining pistachio/walnut meal, almond flour, tapioca starch, baking soda, and cinnamon. Stir to combine.
- Add orange zest, coconut oil, and honey.
- Stir with a rubber spatula until a sticky cookie dough forms. If too dry, add a little extra honey. If too wet, add a little more almond flour. It should be sticky but easy to shape into balls.
- Divide into 10 balls of about 1 tablespoon each. Place on the prepared baking sheet, leaving half an inch between the cookies.
- Bake the cookies for 14 minutes at 350°F (180°C) until golden brown on the sides.
- Remove from the oven and keep for 10 minutes on the baking sheet to cool down at room temperature.
Orange Syrup
- Now you have two syrup options. If you don't like orange, warm the honey and cinnamon, and drizzle over the cookies. If you like orange, go to the next step.
- In a non-stick saucepan, add orange juice, orange marmalade, honey, and cinnamon.
- Stir and bring to a boil on medium-high heat. Reduce to medium heat and keep to a simmer for 2 minutes to thicken.
- Alisin mula sa init.
- Pour a tablespoon of syrup on top of the lukewarm cookies and sprinkle the pistachio/walnut meal you set aside on top of each cookie. Transfer the cookies to a plate and pop it in the fridge to set.

Ingredients at Substitutions
Kaunting simpleng sangkap lang ang kailangan mo para gawin ang resipe na ito. Narito kung paano pumili at magpalit ng mga ito.

- Flour ng Almond – This gives the cookies a tender, moist, and slightly nutty base. You can also use almond meal, cashew flour, or sesame flour for similar results.
- Tapioca Starch – This helps bind the ingredients and creates a chewy texture. Arrowroot powder also works well. Other options like all-purpose gluten-free flour or cornstarch will work but can make the cookies drier and harder.
- Baking soda – This is a leavening agent that helps the cookies rise and spread slightly, giving them a nice texture.
- kanela – This adds a warm, spicy flavor that is essential to the baklava taste.
- Langis ng niyog – This adds moisture and richness to the cookies. Any other mild-flavored oil, such as light olive oil, or melted plant-based butter works as a substitute.
- Matamis – This provides sweetness and helps bind the dough. I use a plant-based, bee-free honey, but you can also use maple syrup. If you use honey, a classic baklava flavor will be present.
- Orange Zest – This adds a bright, tangy citrus flavor. It’s optional, so you can skip it if you don’t like it.
- Pistachios and Walnuts – These are the key nuts that give the cookies their authentic baklava flavor and a little bit of crunch.
- Orange juice – This serves as the liquid base for the orange syrup.
- Orange marmelada – This provides a sweet and slightly bitter citrus flavor for the syrup. Apricot preserves also work well for a less bitter option.
How to Make Baklava Cookies
This recipe is super simple. Here’s how to make it in a few pictures.




Mga Tip sa Pagbe-bake ni Carine
Hayaan ninyong ibahagi ko ang ilan pang mga tip para sa isang perpektong cookie.
- Go Nutty – You can customize the flavor by swapping the walnuts for more pistachios or another type of nut that you love.
- Tunay na Lasang – For a flavor closer to traditional baklava, try adding a quarter teaspoon of orange blossom water to the cookie dough.
- Citrus Swaps – If you don’t care for orange zest, you can use lemon zest instead. Many baklava variations use lemon, so feel free to experiment with different citrus flavors.
- Simpleng Syrup – If you don’t want to use the orange-flavored syrup, simply warm some honey with cinnamon and drizzle it over the cookies.
- No Over-Blending – When grinding the nuts in the blender, be careful not to over-blend them. Pulse them in short bursts to get a coarse meal, not a paste.







Masarap at madali!
Salamat sa iyo kaya magkano!
are these soft cookies or solid/hard like regular cookies?
They are soft, melt in your month cookies.
I’m not a fan of cinnamon, so would it be ok to omit it for this recipe?
Or could you recommend a substitute to cinnamon?
Salamat!
You can absolutely leave it out! If you like another spice, ground ginger or ground cardamom will be lovely too.
Do you think I could substitute a runny tahini for the oil?
Probably, but I didn’t try so I am not sure how it will impact the cookie texture. I am guessing the dough will be crumbly and the cookie dryer.
