About Loukoumas

Loukoumas, a traditional Greek treat, is a fried dough dessert often enjoyed for its crisp exterior and soft, airy interior. Typically made from a simple batter of flour, water, yeast, and a pinch of sugar, these round, golden bites are deep-fried to perfection. They're traditionally drizzled with honey or syrup and sprinkled with cinnamon or sesame seeds, adding a signature sweetness. As a rich, energy-dense food, loukoumas provides quick carbohydrates but offers little in the way of essential nutrients. While it captures the essence of indulgent Greek cuisine, its high sugar and fat content make it a treat best savored in moderation. Pairing it with fresh fruit or unsweetened tea can help balance its sweetness while keeping it as part of a varied, mindful diet.
