About Korean cinnamon pancake

Korean Cinnamon Pancake, or Hotteok, is a beloved street food in Korean cuisine. This sweet, chewy treat is made from a yeast-based dough of wheat flour, sugar, and milk, stuffed with a filling of brown sugar, cinnamon, and crushed nuts like peanuts or walnuts. Fried to golden perfection, it boasts a crispy exterior and a gooey, caramelized center. While it’s a delightful indulgence, Hotteok is a calorie-dense snack due to its sugar content and frying process. However, the nuts provide healthy fats and a dose of protein, and cinnamon contributes antioxidants and potential blood sugar-regulating properties. To enjoy Hotteok more healthfully, moderation is key, and alternative fillings, like seeds or less sugar, can offer a lighter option. Popular in Korea during the colder months, this pancake is the perfect balance of comfort food and cultural tradition.
