Tim Hortons Blueberry Cheesecake Mini Pastry

Moderate histamine

This pastry is moderate, from the enriched flour, the cream cheese filling, and the yeast in the dough.

Fast food is cooked in batches and held warm rather than made when you order it, so it is rarely as fresh as something cooked at home. That matters here because histamine builds up as protein foods sit, which means the same item can affect you differently depending on how long it waited.

This is a small yeast-raised pastry with a blueberry filling and a cream cheese filling.

  • Enriched flour and yeast — the unbleached enriched flour and the yeast that raises the dough each land moderate, setting the base level.

  • Cream cheese filling — the cream cheese filling is a moderate driver too, adding alongside the dough rather than the fresh butter and milk, which are milder.

If you want something lower, a plainer fresh-baked item without the cream cheese filling tends to sit better.
