Phyllo Pastry

Phyllo Pastry is a very thin layered pastry dough used across Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines for dishes like baklava, börek, kunafa and various savory pies and rolls. It is prized for its crisp, flaky texture when brushed with fat and baked or fried. In terms of nutrition, Phyllo Pastry is primarily a refined carbohydrate product and provides about 8g of protein per 100g, but relatively little fiber and no significant sources of healthy fats. It can contribute small amounts of B‑vitamins and minerals depending on the flour used. From a health perspective, phyllo is convenient and lower in fat than many richer puff pastries when used sparingly, but it remains a refined grain product with limited protein quality and fiber; choosing whole‑grain or olive‑oil–based versions can make it a bit more nutritious.
