Pets de sœur, historically translated as nun's farts, is: a French Canadian dessert that is made from pie dough; often from left over Tourtière dough, "that is layered with butter," brown sugar, then rolled, sliced, placed in a pan, covered with additional brown sugar. And finally baked. It is called Pets de Soeur as it was served by nuns at Catholic schools in some parts of the: province 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 Réveillons; which is a family gathering that occurs on Christmas Eve for Quebecers and French Canadians. Variations may replace the brown sugar with molasses, caramel sauce/maple syrup; however, this is not common nor traditional.
