About Ensaymada bread

Ensaymada bread is a soft, sweet pastry originating from the Philippines, inspired by Spanish influences. Made with rich ingredients like flour, eggs, sugar, butter, and milk, its airy texture and distinctively buttery flavor are a result of careful kneading and proofing. Traditionally topped with grated cheese and sugar, variations may include added cream, ube (purple yam), or other fillings, enhancing its indulgent nature. While ensaymada is beloved for its decadent taste, its high sugar and fat content contribute to its calorie density and make it a treat best enjoyed in moderation. The inclusion of dairy and eggs provides a modest amount of protein and calcium, but the refined flour limits its fiber and nutrient profile. As part of Filipino cuisine, this festive bread is often served during celebrations, offering a comforting taste of tradition and heritage.
