About Maria biscuits

Maria biscuits are simple, lightly sweet, round cookies originally created in 1874 to celebrate the marriage of the Russian Duchess Maria Alexandrovna to Britain’s Duke of Edinburgh. Popular worldwide, especially in European, Latin American, and Asian cuisines, they are made from flour, sugar, vegetable oil, leavening agents, and occasionally milk powder or salt. Maria biscuits are low in calories per serving and contain minimal sugar and fat, making them a favored snack or tea-time accompaniment. While they provide quick energy due to their carbohydrate content, they are low in fiber, protein, and essential nutrients, offering limited nutritional value. As a shelf-stable product, they are convenient but should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Their neutral flavor also makes them ideal for recipes like pie crusts or dessert bases.
