About Biscocho bread
Biscocho bread is a popular Filipino snack known for its crunchy texture and sweet, buttery taste. Originating from Western Visayas in the Philippines, this delightful treat is made by twice-baking slices of stale bread, typically enriched with butter and sugar, which gives it its signature crispiness. Key ingredients include flour, sugar, and butter, with occasional flavorings like margarine or cheese for variation. While Biscocho is an enjoyable indulgence, it is not considered a highly nutritious option due to its high sugar and fat content. However, it does provide energy from carbohydrates, making it a quick source of fuel during active days. Moderation is key when incorporating Biscocho into your diet. Typically enjoyed with coffee or tea, it’s a cultural favorite that combines practicality—reusing leftover bread—with the pleasure of a sweet, satisfying snack.
