About Kunafa
Kunafa is a traditional Middle Eastern dessert renowned for its rich, sweet flavor and unique texture. Originating from countries like Lebanon, Egypt, and Palestine, it is typically made with shredded phyllo dough or fine semolina dough, layered with a creamy, cheese-based filling, and soaked in fragrant sugar syrup infused with rose or orange blossom. Sometimes it’s topped with crushed pistachios for added flavor and crunch. Kunafa is high in calories due to its sugar and butter content, and its refined carbohydrate base can contribute to spikes in blood sugar. Cheese provides a small amount of protein and calcium, but its dense richness and sugary coating make it more of a treat than a nutrient-packed dish. While Kunafa is a beloved indulgence, moderation is key to enjoying its decadent flavors without overwhelming your dietary goals.
