Feteer, or Feteer Meshaltet, is a layered, flaky pastry originating from Egypt. Traditionally made with simple ingredients like flour, water, butter, and sometimes milk, it resembles a cross between puff pastry and crepes. Feteer can be served plain or filled with sweet or savory additions, such as honey, cheese, cream, chocolate, or meats. While celebrated for its rich, buttery texture, feteer is calorie-dense due to its high fat content, primarily from butter and oil used in the layering process. It’s a source of carbohydrates and provides quick energy, but it lacks significant protein, fiber, and essential vitamins. Although not inherently a health-focused food, opting for smaller portions or pairing it with nutrient-rich fillings and sides can balance its nutritional profile. Feteer is a beloved treat in Egyptian cuisine, symbolizing generosity, and often served during celebrations and family gatherings.
