About Chebakiah
Chebakiah, a traditional Moroccan pastry, is a sweet treat commonly enjoyed during special occasions like Ramadan. Made from a dough of flour, sesame seeds, and spices such as cinnamon and anise, it is shaped into intricate designs, fried until golden, and then coated in honey while still warm. The addition of orange blossom water gives it a fragrant, aromatic quality. While rich in flavor and cultural significance, Chebakiah is dense in calories and sugar due to its frying and honey coating. It also provides some nutritional benefits, such as healthy fats and fiber from sesame seeds, as well as antioxidants from the spices. However, its high sugar content and deep-fried preparation make it a dessert best enjoyed in moderation. Chebakiah is not only a symbol of Moroccan hospitality but also a flavorful indulgence that connects families and communities through its preparation and sharing.
