Servings: persons

1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons honey
4-1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted
1/2 cup Grape-Nuts
1/2 cup raisins
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
8 sheets phyllo dough (14 inches x 9 inches)

1
In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, water, honey and lemon juice. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat.
2
In a small bowl, combine the pecans, cereal, raisins, brown sugar and cinnamon. Stir in 3 tablespoons of honey mixture; set aside.
3
Stack phyllo sheets on a work surface; trim 1 in. from the 9-in. side. Cut in half lengthwise, forming 8-in. x 7-in. rectangles. (Keep remaining phyllo covered with plastic wrap and a damp towel to prevent it from drying out.) Overlap two pieces in a greased 8-in. square baking dish; spray with cooking spray. Repeat three times.
4
Spread nut mixture over top. Overlap two pieces of phyllo to cover nut mixture; spray with cooking spray. Repeat with remaining phyllo. Using a sharp knife, cut into 24 rectangles, about 2-1/2 in. x 1 in.
5
Bake, uncovered, at 350u00b0 for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Reheat reserved honey mixture; pour over hot baklava. Cool completely on a wire rack.
