Macadamia Nuts are creamy, rich nuts native to Australia but now grown in warm regions worldwide, commonly used in baking, confections and as a snack. They are notable for being calorie-dense and high in fat, containing about 76.1g of fat per 100g, and are prized in cuisine for their buttery texture and delicate flavor. Nutritionally, macadamias are an excellent source of monounsaturated fats and provide trace minerals such as manganese and B1 (thiamine); they are lower in protein and fiber compared with many other nuts, so small portion sizes are typical. From a health perspective, macadamias deliver heart-friendly unsaturated fats and some micronutrients, but because they are energy-dense they are best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
