Here is my scrumptious baklava recipe. I’ve been asked to share the recipe by a few of my Turkish friends, and I’ve been told that cinnamon gives it a great touch.

Ingredients
- 2 pounds Cornish hen, giblets removed
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat an air fryer to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Pat Cornish hen dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper on all sides.
- Place hen in the basket of the air fryer and cook for 15 minutes. Spray the top of the hen with nonstick cooking spray and cook for 15 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Transfer the hen to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes. Carve and serve.
- If you use a frozen Cornish hen, make sure it is fully thawed before cooking.
