This nun’s farts recipe, also called pets de nonne, is the delight of French-Canadian children. The traditional French recipe is for a light choux puff, but in Canada it evolved as a way to use leftover pastry scraps. This treat is brushed with butter, sprinkled with sugar, and rolled into spirals. The pastry spirals are then baked into crispy, flaky confections that are best eaten fresh and warm
Ingredients
Ingredients
1 recipe pastry dough or 1 package store-bought pie dough
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1/2 cup pure maple sugar (substitute light brown sugar)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
Preparation
Preheat an oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Roll out the pastry dough into a 9-inch by 12-inch rectangle. Brush the butter over the dough, and then evenly sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon over the butter. Starting at the 9-inch end, roll up the pastry dough into a tight spiral. Slice it crosswise into 8 pieces, each slightly wider than 1 inch.
