About Streusel

Streusel is a crumbly topping made of butter, sugar, and flour, often enhanced with spices like cinnamon or nutmeg. Originating from Germany, the term "streusel" means "sprinkle" or "strewn" in German, reflecting its use as a finishing layer on baked goods such as cakes, pastries, and muffins. While streusel adds a delightful texture and sweetness, it's calorie-dense due to the high amounts of fat and sugar. Some recipes may incorporate nuts, oats, or whole-grain flours, offering slight nutritional benefits like fiber and healthy fats. Streusel is primarily a treat, best enjoyed in moderation as it is generally low in nutrients and high in carbohydrates. This indulgent topping however epitomizes the comforting essence of traditional baked goods, often associated with holidays, gatherings, and enjoying a touch of European culinary heritage.
