Think of puff puff as the West African cousin of a doughnut, crispier on the outside, and with a soft, airy middle that practically melts in your mouth. These golden-brown pillows of joy are deep-fried to perfection and can go from sweet to savoury with just a few tweaks. Traditionally, they’re made with flour, sugar, yeast, and a touch of nutmeg then deep-fried until puffed and irresistible.

In homes and street corners across Nigeria, Ghana, and beyond, puff puff, bofrot or boflot is the life of the party. Whether it’s served as appetisers aka small chops at a wedding or naming ceremony, enjoyed for breakfast alongside Hausa Koko or passed around at a backyard hangout, puff puff brings people together. It’s finger food that feeds the soul!

And let’s be honest once you pop one, you’re going to need at least five more. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.  Try out this Low sugar version that simply ticks all the right boxes.
