Torta Della Nonna is a classic Italian dessert, originating from Tuscany, cherished for its simplicity and comforting flavors. This traditional pie features a rich custard filling made from eggs, milk, sugar, and flour, often enhanced with a hint of citrus zest or vanilla. The filling is nestled between layers of buttery shortcrust pastry and topped with pine nuts and a dusting of powdered sugar. While indulgent, Torta Della Nonna offers a source of protein through its eggs and traces of healthy fats from the pine nuts. However, it is primarily a treat, with its significant sugar content and refined flour limiting its nutritional benefits. Ideal for special occasions, this dessert embodies the essence of Italian home cooking while reminding us to enjoy sweets in moderation.
