Faysalieh

(فيصلية, Faisaliah )

Faysalieh is triangle-shaped baklava combining a nut filling and an outer shell that is made from thin threads of kataifi (knefe) dough. The pastry is typically filled with pistachios, but some varieties replace the nut filling with cream.


These triangular pockets are baked and then doused in sugar syrup, but should always remain crispy. They are typically associated with Lebanon.
