Place the flour in a wide saucepan. Cook and stir over medium heat for approximately 15 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it turn yellow. Gradually add the sugar, stirring well until fully combined.

Stir in the melted butter and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly using a spoon or your hands, taking care as the mixture may be very hot, until it resembles a sand-like consistency. Press the mixture firmly into a 9×9-inch pan.

3

Cut the mixture into either baklava shapes or squares.

4

Chill until firm, approximately 1 to 2 hours, then serve.
