About Hawaiian roll
Hawaiian rolls are soft, slightly sweet bread rolls originating from Hawaii, influenced by Portuguese sweet bread brought to the islands in the 19th century. They are known for their fluffy texture and mild sweetness, primarily made from enriched flour, sugar, eggs, butter, and milk. Hawaiian rolls are often used as dinner rolls, sandwich bases, or for making sliders. Nutritionally, one roll (about 28g) provides approximately 90 calories, 2g of protein, 1.5g of fat, 16g of carbohydrates, and 3g of sugar. They are low in fiber and typically fortified with iron and B vitamins from enriched flour but are also relatively high in simple carbohydrates and sodium depending on the recipe or brand.
