About Pao de milho

Pão de Milho, also known as Brazilian Cornbread, is a traditional bread originating from Brazil, made primarily with cornmeal, wheat flour, eggs, milk, butter, and sugar. This rustic bread has a slightly sweet flavor and dense yet soft texture, making it a versatile companion to meals or a standalone snack. Rich in carbohydrates from cornmeal, Pão de Milho serves as an energy source, while the eggs and milk add protein and essential nutrients such as calcium and vitamins. However, its sugar content and butter can contribute to higher calorie and saturated fat levels, so moderation is key for those watching their intake. Often enjoyed plain or with cheese, it reflects Brazil's agricultural heritage and the blending of native and European culinary influences. Pão de Milho is a comforting choice that offers wholesome ingredients combined with indulgent flavors.
