About Kenafe
Kenafe, also spelled Kunafa or Knafeh, is a traditional Middle Eastern dessert known for its rich flavor and unique texture. It typically consists of a layer of shredded phyllo dough or semolina, which is baked to golden perfection and filled or topped with a soft, stretchy cheese or creamy filling. This indulgent treat is sweetened with fragrant sugar syrup, often infused with rosewater or orange blossom. Originating in the Levant region, Kenafe is enjoyed across the Middle East, especially during celebrations and holidays. While it’s a delicious dessert, Kenafe is high in sugar, saturated fats, and calories due to its syrup, cheese, and butter content. However, it can provide a small boost of calcium and energy, thanks to the cheese base. As a treat best enjoyed in moderation, Kenafe is both a taste of tradition and a decadent addition to any table.
