Why I Love This Recipe
Quick and easy Haitian patties! Absolutely delicious!! They can be served for breakfast or at any Haitian partis as appetizers. These easy patties are made with store brought pastry dough (Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry Sheets) If you’re an expert at making your own dough(to get that authentic Haitian patties), be my guest.
