Nun's Farts
French-Canadian desert
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nun's farts (French: pets de sœur) is a French Canadian dessert that is made from pie dough; often from left over Tourtière dough, that is layered with butter and brown sugar, then rolled, sliced, placed in a pan, covered with additional brown sugar, and finally baked.[1] It is called Pets de Soeur as it was served by nuns at Catholic schools in some parts of Quebec and Acadia.
In Quebec and French-speaking Canada, they are often served during the Christmas holidays and may be served as part of a réveillon, a family gathering on Christmas Eve. Variations may replace the brown sugar with molasses, caramel sauce or maple syrup; however, this is not common nor traditional.
