The pompe aux grattons

The pompe aux grattons is a typically Bourbonnaise recipe, made using a classic brioche dough,
but with a third less eggs, a little saltier than usual, the butter being replaced by grattons.

The grattons are the waste of melted pork fat to which is added, once golden,
a few grains of salt.

Like the pâté aux pommes de terre, most bakers in the region offer it to their customers.
Often served warm as an aperitif, it is traditionally offered in the region’s wines of honor.
