Pets De Soeur
- 1 lb Lard, Tenderflake or similar
- 6 cup Pastry flour
- 2 tsp Salt
- 1 tbsp Vinegar
- 1 Egg
- 1 as needed Brown Sugar
- 1 as needed Butter
- 1 as needed Cinnamon
- Mix together flour and salt.
- Cut the lard with two knives or a pastry cutter into the flour.
- The finished consistency should be similar to dry oatmeal.
- In a measuring cup lightly beat the egg and add the vinegar to it.
- Add enough cold water to make 1 cup of the mixture.
- Gradually stir the liquid into the flour/lard mixture.
- Only add enough of the liquid to make the dough cling together.
- Divide the dough into 3 balls and wrap 2 of them in wax paper or plastic wrap.
- These 2 can be frozen for future use, you will only need 1 for this recipe.
- Using a rolling pin, roll the ball of dough out on a floured surface to form a large rectangle.
- If you find the dough too sticky to work with it can be cooled in the refrigerator for a couple of hours prior to rolling it out.
- Liberally coat the dough rectangle with butter, then coat with brown sugar and a dusting of cinnamon.
- Roll the dough up like a tight jelly roll to form a long tube that is 2 to 3 inches in diameter.
- Cut the tube into 1 to 2 inch sections and stack these section on a pie plate vertically.
- You want to pack them together fairly close so they are all touching.
- Bake at 350F for 40 to 55 minutes, the time will depend on how many Pets De Soeurs you have on the pie plate.
- They will be done when they are bubbly and golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
- Break off individual rolls and enjoy!
