Piaya is a traditional Filipino flatbread with a sweet, flaky texture. Originating from the region of Negros Occidental, it is typically stuffed with muscovado sugar and sometimes includes sesame seeds for added flavor. The dough is made from flour, water, and oil, resulting in a crispy yet tender bite when cooked on a griddle. While Piaya offers a quick energy boost due to its sugar content, it is not ideal for those seeking a low-calorie or low-sugar diet. The muscovado sugar, however, does provide trace nutrients like potassium and magnesium, which are healthier alternatives to refined sugar. High in carbohydrates and calories, Piaya is best enjoyed in moderation as a treat or accompaniment to coffee or tea. This Filipino delicacy exemplifies a cultural tradition of pairing sweetness with simplicity in snacks and desserts.
