About Pastel de nata

Pastel de Nata, also known as Portuguese custard tart, is a beloved pastry originating from Portugal. These treats consist of a flaky puff pastry shell filled with a rich, creamy custard made from egg yolks, sugar, milk or cream, and a touch of cinnamon or lemon zest. Traditionally baked to achieve a caramelized top, their texture balances a crisp crust with a smooth, velvety interior. While Pastéis de Nata offer a delightful indulgence, they are calorie-dense due to their sugar, butter, and cream content. They provide a small amount of protein from eggs and may contain calcium from the dairy, but are best enjoyed in moderation as a sweet treat rather than a nutritious snack. Widely loved for their decadent flavor, these iconic pastries are a symbol of Portuguese cuisine and are often accompanied by coffee for a quintessentially European experience.
