Pan de Yuca, originating from Colombia and Ecuador, is a delightful gluten-free bread made with yucca (cassava) starch, cheese, eggs, and baking powder. Often enjoyed as a snack or accompaniment to coffee, its small, round shape and light, chewy texture make it a popular treat in South American cuisine. The primary ingredient, yucca starch, is naturally gluten-free and rich in carbohydrates, providing quick energy. The cheese adds protein and calcium but also contributes saturated fat, which should be consumed in moderation. While Pan de Yuca is relatively simple and contains no preservatives, its high carb-to-protein ratio means it’s best enjoyed as an occasional indulgence rather than a regular staple. For those seeking a balance, consider serving it alongside fresh vegetables or a lean protein source to create a more complete meal.
