In a medium bowl place the cinnamon and walnuts, and mix them
together. Brush the bottom of a 14" x 20" baking dish with the
butter. Place one pastry sheet in the dish and brush it with the
butter. 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 4 layers of 6 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.
Bake the baklava for 40 minutes, or until it is golden brown. In a
medium saucepan place the sugar, water, orange peel, lemon peel, and
cinnamon stick. Bring the ingredients to a boil and then simmer them
for 5 minutes. Add the honey and bring the mixture to a boil. 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.
