PHYLLO DOUGH TARTLETS RECIPES

Steps:

• Position a rack in the lower third of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Combine the nuts, cinnamon and ground crackers in a bowl.
• Brush a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with some of the butter. Layer 10 pieces of phyllo in the dish, brushing each piece with butter before adding the next (keep the remaining dough covered with a damp towel). Sprinkle a quarter of the nut mixture over the dough. Layer 4 pieces of phyllo on top, brushing each with butter before adding the next; sprinkle with another quarter of the nut mixture. Add 4 more phyllo pieces on top, brushing each with butter, then add another quarter of the nut mixture, 4 more pieces of phyllo with butter, and the remaining nuts.
• Layer the remaining 10 pieces of phyllo on top of the nuts, brushing each with butter; brush the top piece with extra butter. Cut into the baklava to make strips, about 1 1/2 inches wide. Then make diagonal slices, about 1 1/2 inches apart, to create a diamond pattern. Bake until golden, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, make the syrup: Bring the sugar, honey and 1 1/2 cups water to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat and cook, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the lemon juice and boil 2 more minutes, then let cool slightly.
• Pour the syrup over the warm baklava; let soak, uncovered, at least 6 hours or overnight. Garnish with nuts.

Steps:

• Add all of the ingredients, except the rice flour, to the bowl of a stand mixer. Stir everything together with a dough whisk or wooden spoon to moisten the flour.
• Mix on low with the dough hook for one minute, and then mix on second speed for 7 minutes.
• Turn the dough out onto the work surface, form it into a ball, and place it into an oiled bowl or dough rising bucket. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 40 minute to an hour.
• Line a half sheet pan (13 by 18 inch rimmed baking sheet) with parchment paper and heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and form each piece into a tight ball. Place the balls in the pan, 3 across and 4 down. Wet your hand and press down on rolls and cover with oiled plastic wrap. Let rise for about 30 minutes, until puffy.
• Remove the plastic wrap and sprinkle the tops of the rolls with rice flour.
• Place the pan on the middle rack and bake for 20 minutes, until the bread reaches an interior temperature of 200 degrees F. Optionally, turn the oven to broil and brown the tops of the rolls, watching very closely. Alternatively, you can also use the convection function of your oven for the last five minutes to brown the rolls.
• Cool the rolls on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
