Spanish bread, also known as Señorita bread, is one of the most popular Filipino breads that you can purchase at a Filipino bakery. I remember having these as a kid, enjoying it with Tang or a mug of hot “tsokolate” (chocolate milk)!

This Spanish bread recipe is similar to how you would make pandesal, except it’s got hidden treasure inside: BUTTER AND BROWN SUGARY GOODNESS! If you want, you can fill this with anything really – I was thinking of filling it with ube butter or even homemade Choc-Nut butter!

You can make this Spanish bread in smaller sizes, so it’s not such a challenge finishing one if you’re not too hungry. It’s REALLY good though, it’s not like it would be difficult to run through a couple pieces in one sitting.

Let me know in the comments, are you going to make this at home? And let me know if you have any recipe recommendations.

  1. This is the best recipe I’ve seen yet growing up in California. This was a staple in our house every weekend. Oh my God, the line will be lined up out of the store on Sunday. Everyone would come after church.

  2. It origins is spanish regardless how you wanna see it. They introduce wheat bread and sugar( possibly arabs)to the islands. It's very similar to many Latin American sweet pans. Like how Filipino noodles aren't Filipino its Chinese. Filipino food is basically a mix of different cultures from Europe America Asia. It stead of trying to take the European out of Filipino culture ,which you cannot do at all without eliminating filipinos all together, just to make it sounds more asian, just own it and accept it. Even my mom own generation would tell you how spanish Philippines is how their food is spanish influenced. The younger generations are hopping on the anti white evil colonialism band wagon. True indigenous Filipinos aren't nothing like the majority of those who call themselves Filipinos. Just retelling what my mom and her family have told us.

  3. Ooh yes there is much Spanish about it….don't you know that Phillipines people have Spanish blood in them…many of your foods have Spanish similarities…and. many Phillipines people have Spanish names…that's one thing I never understood about Phillipines people…they deny their Spanish inheritance

  4. Your recipe was easy to follow. It only took me 2 attempts to get it down. The first time, I found out my yeast was dead. The second attempt, I poured the yeast in like you did but yours was instant and my was active dry yeast so after letting my dough sit for an hour and I didn't see any changes, I realized what I did wrong so I put some yeast in warm water to proof it then add it to my dough and knead it. The only thing I need to work on is making them all the same size. I also shared your recipe with a fb page that showed a lot of interest. So happy I found your recipe! Thank you for sharing!

  5. Hi I have a question, regarding the measurements can I use the cups instead of grams bec. I don't have a bakingscale right now, but the problem is the measurements is somewhat different from the cups and grams.. Esp. The flour I used grams before when i had my baking scale.. It's 560gm but in cups it measures only 3 1/2cup but in the description it's 4 1/2 which one is correct.. Thank you so much.

  6. First attempt…my dough didn't rise at all after 2 hr so I tested my yeast and it was dead 😤. I tried salvaging my flat dough by adding baking powder. It turned out OK, just not light and fluffy bread like how senorita breads should be. Better luck next time, I guess.
