    Title: Apollo Pastry Baklava Pie
    Categories: Pastry, Herbs, Desserts, Nuts
    Yield: 6 Servings

    MMMMM---------------------------CRUST--------------------------------
    10 Sheets frozen Apollo phyllo
    - dough; thawed overnight
    1/3 c Granulated sugar
    1 tb Cinnamon
    1 ts Allspice
    12 tb Butter; melted

    MMMMM----------------------------PIE---------------------------------
    5 tb Butter; melted
    1/2 c Granulated sugar
    1/4 c Brown sugar
    3/4 c Honey
    1 ts Pure vanilla extract
    3/4 ts Salt
    3 lg Eggs
    2 1/2 c Rough chopped nuts

    Set the oven @ 375ºF/190ºC.

    Place a 9" pie plate on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

    MAKE THE CRUST: Unwrap the phyllo dough, but keep it
    covered with a slightly damp kitchen towel (this will
    prevent it from drying out and cracking). In a small
    bowl, mix the sugar with the cinnamon and allspice to
    combine.

    Place a sheet of phyllo dough on your work surface.
    Brush it all over with melted butter, then sprinkle
    evenly with the sugar mixture to coat. Place another
    sheet of phyllo dough on top of it and repeat the
    process. Repeat with the remaining sheets of phyllo
    dough.

    Transfer the layered phyllo dough to the pie plate,
    allowing the excess to hang over the edge. Cover the
    crust with a damp paper towel while you prepare the
    filling.

    MAKE THE FILLING: In a large bowl, whisk the melted
    butter with the sugar, brown sugar, honey, vanilla
    extract and salt to combine. Add the eggs one at a time,
    mixing thoroughly to combine.

    Uncover the dough and place the nuts in an even layer
    inside the crust. Pour the custard over the nuts.

    Fold the excess crust over the filling. Brush the crust
    with the remaining melted butter.

    Bake until the crust is golden and the custard is set,
    35 to 40 minutes. Cool completely before slicing and
    serving.
