- Repeat this process so that 6 pastry sheets line the bottom of the dish.
- Sprinkle 1/3 of the nut mixture over the top of the pastry sheets. Repeat this process so that there are 3 layers of the nut mixture and four layers of buttered pastry sheets, ending with 6 pastry sheets.
- Cut the baklava into 40 diamond shaped pieces. Insert a whole clove in the top of each piece.
- Preheat the oven to 350 F.

- Remove the pan from the heat and add the lemon juice. Stir the ingredients together and then let the syrup cool. Remove the orange and lemon peels, and the cinnamon stick.
- Spread the cool syrup over the hot baklava. Cover the dish with a towel and let it sit for 1 hour before serving
