Make this in a spring form pan with homemade jam which is much sweeter than store bought, add a crumb topping to it and it is good, you can tell by the extra baking powder and lack of sugar that this recipe depends on the jam to sweeten it, it was fast , easy and very good as a breakfast cake, experiment with it , I added fresh blackberries from the garden and used a brown sugar crumb topping, as well as cinnamon, this is a basic recipe so it is good for people who like to add their own touches to it

Being Greek Orthodox I took al the shortcuts my mom does, add some buttter to the nut recipe then you dont have to butter so much between the Phillo, and u dont have to thaw the Phillo out all the way it handles better partially thawed, simmer your syrup for at least 2 hours
