Ube Ensaymada with Cheese is a Filipino pastry that combines the soft, fluffy texture of a sweet brioche-like bread with the rich flavors of ube (purple yam) and savory cheese. This delightful treat is made with flour, milk, sugar, butter, eggs, and mashed ube, which gives it its vibrant purple color and subtle earthy sweetness. Topped with a generous layer of grated cheese and sometimes butter and sugar, it offers a balance of sweet and salty flavors. While ube provides dietary fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants, the pastry's high sugar, butter, and cheese content contribute to its indulgent nature, making it a decadent but occasional treat. A beloved item in Filipino cuisine, it’s perfect for sharing during celebrations or as a snack paired with coffee or tea. Moderation is key to enjoying this flavorful classic while maintaining a balanced diet.
