About Zwieback

Zwieback is a type of crispy, twice-baked bread originating from Germany, traditionally made with simple ingredients like flour, sugar, yeast, butter, and eggs. Its name, meaning "twice baked" in German, reflects its unique preparation, resulting in a light, crunchy texture. Often used as a snack or baby food, zwieback is prized for its long shelf life and digestibility. Nutritionally, it is low in fat and can provide a source of carbohydrates for quick energy. However, it is not a significant source of fiber or protein and may contain added sugar, depending on the recipe. Zwieback is sometimes enriched with vitamins and minerals, making it a suitable choice for children and adults looking for a mild, easily digestible option. Those monitoring their sugar intake or seeking whole grains may need to look for specially formulated variations of this classic bread.
