Bolos, a term commonly used in Portuguese cuisine, refers to cakes or baked treats that can range from sweet to savory. Traditional bolos often incorporate ingredients like flour, sugar, eggs, butter, and baking powder, and may include flavorings such as citrus zest, vanilla, or spices. Some regional variations feature wholesome additions like fruits, nuts, or seeds, enhancing their nutritional profile. While bolos are celebrated for their rich flavors and cultural significance, they can be calorie-dense due to added sugars and fats, making moderation key. Healthier adaptations, such as swapping refined flours for whole-grain alternatives or reducing sugar, can make bolos a more balanced indulgence. Often enjoyed during gatherings or celebrations, bolos provide a delicious way to explore Portuguese culinary traditions while offering flexible ingredients for diverse dietary needs.
