About Tamale de pina
Tamale de Piña is a sweet tamale originating from Mexican cuisine, often enjoyed as a dessert or snack. It’s made by combining masa (corn dough) with fresh or canned pineapple, sugar, and sometimes a touch of cinnamon for added flavor. The blend is wrapped in corn husks and steamed until soft and tender. This treat highlights the tropical sweetness of pineapple, which provides vitamin C and antioxidants, supporting immune health and digestion. While the masa offers energy-sustaining carbohydrates, the sugar content makes it a higher-calorie option. Tamale de Piña is typically gluten-free, making it suitable for those with specific dietary restrictions. However, it’s best enjoyed in moderation due to its sugar levels, particularly for individuals monitoring blood sugar. This festive dish represents a delicious fusion of tradition and indulgence within Mexican culinary culture.
