Description
Low-fat crescent rolls are a light and healthy version of the traditional crescent buns, known for their soft texture and characteristic semicircular shape. These rolls are made with selected ingredients to reduce fat content while maintaining a pleasant flavor and fluffy crumb.
Originally popular in different regions, crescent rolls have roots in European baking, especially in countries like France and Austria, where they are reinvented in a healthy way to adapt to modern lifestyles and balanced diets.
Among their properties, they feature a lower caloric and lipid intake compared to the traditional version, making them an ideal option for those looking to watch their diet without giving up a good bun. Their low fat content allows for more frequent consumption within weight control diets or for people with specific nutritional requirements.
In different Hispanic American countries, these rolls may have different names that function as synonyms in the culinary context, such as low-fat medialunas, light crescent rolls, or dietetic medialunas. It is important to be aware of these terms to facilitate the search and preparation of healthy recipes.
