Place of origin Spain

A mollete is a flatbread from the Andalusian region, in southern Spain. It is a soft round white bread, usually served lightly toasted with olive oil and raw garlic or spread with lard (usually in the forms of manteca colorá or zurrapa de lomo [es]) in an Andalusian breakfast. The most famous are the ones from Antequera, Málaga.[1]

Manteca colorá (English: red lard), is lard cooked with pork and paprika and often spread on toasted molletes.

It should not be confused with the Mexican dish of the same name.
