Standard Serving
1 felie (80g) contains 296 calories.
Best time: Occasionally, as a festive dessert - not as a daily staple food
Benefits
- ✓Contains eggs and milk, which bring protein and calcium alongside the caloric content
- ✓Walnuts or cocoa in the filling add healthy fats and antioxidants to the base recipe
- ✓Dense, quick energy, useful occasionally as a festive dessert or after intense physical effort
- ✓A homemade recipe allows control over the amount of sugar and the type of fat used
- ✓Values are average, indicative figures - they vary noticeably between recipes (with/without walnut, Turkish delight or cocoa)
Considerations
- !Very caloric per serving (about 296 kcal/80g slice) - one slice can equal a substantial snack
- !Sugar and fat in the dough and filling significantly raise the caloric density compared to plain bread
- !Commercial versions often contain preservatives and hydrogenated vegetable fats - homemade cozonac is preferable
FitAzi Tip
FitAzi recommends a moderate portion of cozonac (one slice, not more) as an occasional holiday dessert, not as part of daily eating. If you make it at home, you can reduce the sugar in the classic recipe without majorly affecting the texture, for a slightly more balanced version.
