Preheat oven to 325.

2. Take half the dough out fo the bowl a roll it between two sheets of parchment paper as thin as possible. Take flattened crust out of the paper and put on a baking dish. Do the same with the other half of the crust, but set the flattened crust aside.
Make the Baklava Filling:
Mix all ingredients together and spread evenly on the Pie crust. Place other pie crust on top and pack down evenly. Brush with more melted butter or coconut oil. Cut and place into the oven for 15-20 minutes, making sure it does not burn.
For the syrup

Once the Baklava has finished cooking, pour syrup over evenly and place in the freezer until stiffened.
Note: Ingredients may have to be adjusted based on how thin crust is. Also, the crust should be applied as firmly as possible with out breaking to make the top stay on.
