Ratatouille is the 2007 Disney·Pixar movie about a rat who dreams of being a chef in Paris; its ride, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, is at Epcot’s France pavilion and Disneyland Paris. This is our own quick, family-friendly version of a dish from the movie or the pavilion, not an official recipe.
The France pavilion in Epcot, where Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure opened in 2021, has a bakery full of croissants and pastries, and the smell wanders out into the square. These are our quick at-home version.
Make it a learning moment: real croissant dough is folded with butter again and again to make dozens of thin layers. Peel one open and count the layers you can see.
