About Cajeta empanada
Cajeta Empanadas are a dessert pastry rooted in Mexican cuisine, celebrated for their rich, sweet caramel filling made from goat’s milk, known as cajeta. The empanada dough is typically crafted from flour, butter, sugar, and eggs, creating a flaky, golden crust that envelops the creamy and indulgent filling. While these treats offer a satisfying sweetness and a touch of cultural tradition, they are best enjoyed in moderation due to their high sugar and fat content. Cajeta provides a small amount of protein and calcium from the goat’s milk, but these benefits are offset by the addition of sugar. As a dessert, Cajeta Empanadas are a delightful way to experience Mexican flavors, but they should be viewed as an occasional indulgence rather than a daily staple for those seeking a balanced diet.
