Tim Laplant's favorite family dish

Mary Laplant, Tim's mother made pasties from scratch a few times a year. Tim enjoys the memories of how he would feast on these after a long day of hunting, that's if his mom wasn't out hunting with them. 😁The whole family enjoys the warmth of the dish along with all the pleasant memories they created together making them.

Add half the batter into pan and spread evenly.  Add broccoli pieces and
cover with remaining batter. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until
a toothpick inserted comes out clean.  Top with favorite cheese after cooking
