Dough Balls are small, bite-sized portions of bread dough, often baked or fried to golden perfection. Originating from European cuisines, particularly Italian cuisine, they are a popular appetizer or snack commonly served with garlic butter or marinara dipping sauce. Made from basic ingredients like flour, water, yeast, sugar, and oil, Dough Balls are soft, fluffy, and versatile. While their simplicity is appealing, their health benefits depend largely on preparation. They offer energy from carbohydrates and may contain small amounts of protein, but they tend to be low in fiber and higher in calories due to added fats or toppings. Some variations may incorporate whole-grain flours for added fiber or limit oils for a lighter option. Moderation is key to enjoying Dough Balls as part of a balanced diet, as their irresistible nature can quickly lead to overindulgence.
