Pandesal is a soft, slightly sweet Filipino bread roll made from flour, yeast, sugar, salt, and breadcrumbs, traditionally baked until golden brown with a fluffy interior and a mildly crusty exterior. Originating during the Spanish colonial period and popularized in Manila, Philippines, it is a beloved staple of Filipino breakfasts and meriendas (afternoon snacks). Pandesal is typically enjoyed warm and paired with butter, cheese, eggs, or filled with savory meats or sweet spreads. Sold by local bakeries in the early morning, it represents both comfort and community.

Common variations include cheese pandesal, ube pandesal, and filled pandesal with corned beef, adobo, or chocolate.
