About Pastel nata
Pastel de nata, a beloved Portuguese custard tart, is a rich dessert with a flaky pastry shell and creamy filling. Originating in monasteries during the 18th century, it features a luscious blend of egg yolks, sugar, milk, and flour, baked to perfection and often dusted with cinnamon or powdered sugar. While its buttery crust and sweet custard make it a decadent treat, moderation is key due to its high sugar and fat content. On the positive side, the eggs provide some protein, while the milk contributes calcium. However, its nutritional profile is primarily indulgent rather than health-focused, making pastel de nata best enjoyed occasionally as part of a balanced diet. This iconic pastry is celebrated for its exquisite flavor that reflects Portugal's rich culinary tradition.
