A piaya ( Hiligaynon: piyaya, pronounced [piˈjaja]; Spanish: piaya,^[2] pronounced [ˈpjaʝa]; Hokkien Chinese: 餅仔; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: piáⁿ-iá) is a muscovado-filled unleavened flatbread from the Philippines especially common in Negros Occidental where it is a popular delicacy.^[3] It is made by filling dough with a mixture of muscovado and water. The filled dough is then flattened with a rolling pin, sprinkled with sesame seeds and baked on a griddle.^[4] Piaya is best eaten warm.^[5]
