This is a great Baklava recipe. A friend passed this along to me. I love the combo of apples and walnuts and is a favorite recipe when it's apple picking time. If you don't want to use rum; substitute 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 2 tablespoons lemon rind.

Excellent recipe! I didn't use nuts (allergies), but I'm sure with walnuts would be even better! I LOVED this recipe, was very easy to make. Thank you for posting it!

The filling was splendid. I sub'd brandy (had no rum) and pecans (no walnuts). I also did not have phyllo and used spring roll wrappers. The wrappers would have been good, but one wrapper = 3 sheets of phyllo. So, I should have cut down on the wrappers. Despite my subs, the recipe was EXCELLENT.

I love this recipe!! I made a few simple changes. I put the sliced peeled apples and walnuts into the processor with the sugar. Then into a bowl to add raisins, cinnamon and YES the rum!! Now Since I was serving this with a meat dish I used VCO coconut oil instead of butter for enriched health benefits...OMG, it worked wonderfully. So NO butter. Perfection. I did a trick with the last sheets so I would have plenty to tuck. Email me and I will go into how.
