Greek Biscuits, or "paximadia," are traditional baked goods from Greek cuisine, often enjoyed as a snack or accompaniment to meals. Typically made with flour, olive oil, seeds, honey, and spices like cinnamon or anise, they are baked twice for a crunchy texture similar to biscotti. Variations may include whole wheat or barley flour, providing additional fiber and nutrients. Olive oil, a key ingredient, offers heart-healthy fats, while nuts and seeds, such as sesame or almond, contribute protein and essential nutrients. However, the biscuits can be calorie-dense, especially if sweetened with sugar or honey. They are naturally free of artificial additives and preservatives, aligning with the Mediterranean diet's focus on wholesome ingredients. Greek Biscuits are a flavorful and versatile option, but portion control is recommended for those monitoring sugar or calorie intake. Enjoy them with coffee, tea, or alongside dips like tzatziki for an authentic Greek experience!
