Gooey, sweet, and gloriously messy, these are the pastries that define Canadian baking. A brown sugar filling bakes down into something close to caramel, dotted with plump raisins and cradled in a flaky pastry shell. That runny-yet-set center is the whole point. Make a big batch for the holidays and watch them vanish faster than you can pull them from the tin.
