About Papanasi

Papanasi is a traditional Romanian dessert made from fried or boiled dough, typically shaped like a donut with a smaller ball stacked on top. The dough is crafted from fresh cow's cheese, eggs, sugar, flour, and baking soda, giving the dish its signature soft and airy texture. It’s often served topped with sour cream and fruit preserves, creating a rich, decadent treat. Originating from Romanian cuisine, Papanasi is a beloved sweet with regional variations. Packed with protein from the cheese and eggs, it offers some nutritional benefits, but its fried preparation and added sugar can make it high in calories and fat. Opting for the boiled version or moderating toppings can enhance its health value. For those exploring Eastern European desserts, Papanasi is a delightful choice to savor in moderation.
