_A Proper Newe Booke of Cokerye_ has a recipe for Panne Puffe (p. 27); I
don't know if it is the same thing or not.

Take the stuffe of Stock frytters and for hys paest take a quantitie of ale
and a lytle yest and Suger, Mace and Saffron, than heate it on a
chavyndysche and ut it to youre floure with the yolcke of a rawe agge, and
so after this maner make up your paest.

To Make Stock Frytoures

Take the same stuffe that you take to a vaute and that same paest ye take
for pescoddes, and ye maye frye them or els bake them.

To make Pescoddes

... and make youre paeste as fyne as ye canne, and as shorte and thyn as ye
canne, ...
