Bakar Khani is a traditional flaky pastry originating from Bengal, particularly cherished in Bangladeshi and East Indian cuisine. Made from all-purpose wheat flour, clarified butter (ghee), sugar, and a pinch of cardamom or cinnamon for flavor, it features layers of rich texture that are folded to perfection and baked into golden-brown rounds. While it offers a delightful treat, Bakar Khani is notably indulgent due to its high content of refined flour and added sugar. Its ghee content contributes to its buttery taste but also makes it calorie-dense, with significant saturated fats. For those mindful of dietary balance, it’s best enjoyed occasionally as a snack or dessert rather than a daily staple. Traditional variations may also include nuts or dried fruits, offering small amounts of beneficial nutrients. Despite being an energy-rich food, its limited fiber and protein make it less ideal for sustained fullness or nutrition.
