About Pandeyuca

Pandeyuca is a traditional Colombian and Ecuadorian bread made from yuca (cassava) flour, cheese, eggs, and a small amount of butter. This gluten-free snack is prized for its chewy texture and subtly cheesy flavor, making it a popular choice for breakfast or as an afternoon treat. Yuca, the primary ingredient, is a starchy root rich in carbohydrates, providing a quick source of energy. While it’s naturally gluten-free and easy to digest, pandeyuca can be calorie-dense due to the addition of cheese and butter. It offers small amounts of protein and calcium from the cheese, but its high carbohydrate and fat content mean moderation is key for balanced nutrition. Often baked rather than fried, it’s a lighter alternative to other fried snacks, making it a delicious yet indulgent treat that brings a taste of South American culinary tradition to your table.
