Persian Cream Puff (Nan Khamei) is a traditional and beloved Iranian pastry made from a light, airy dough filled with sweet, fresh whipped cream. This pastry is highly popular due to its soft texture, creamy sweetness, and elegant appearance, making it a favorite for celebrations, gatherings, and special occasions.

The dough for Nan Khamei is made using water, butter, flour, and eggs. After baking, the pastries naturally form a hollow center, which is then filled with freshly whipped cream. They are often dusted with powdered sugar or drizzled with melted chocolate for decoration. The key to the deliciousness of Persian cream puffs lies in the delicate texture of the pastry and the freshness of the cream, which is why they are usually made and consumed fresh.

These pastries are widely available in Iranian bakeries and have a large fan base. Nan Khamei is best stored in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness and offers an irresistibly delightful taste when served chilled.
