About Panqueca

Panqueca, commonly referred to as Brazilian pancakes, is a versatile and delicious dish rooted in Brazilian cuisine. Similar to crepes, the batter is made from simple ingredients: flour, eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt. Traditionally, panquecas are stuffed with savory ingredients like ground beef, chicken, or vegetables, but they can also be filled with sweet options like fruit, chocolate, or dulce de leche. They are then rolled and topped with sauces, such as tomato or cheese-based sauces, for added flavor. While panqueca offers a good source of carbohydrates and can include protein and fiber depending on the filling, it may also be high in calories and fats, particularly when loaded with cheese or creamy sauces. Opting for lighter fillings and whole-grain flour can enhance its nutritional profile, making it a delicious yet balanced meal option.
