This first recipe was invented by Maria of Portugal, <i>Duchess of Viseu<\/i>, which was the granddaughter of the King Manuel I of Portugal, in the sixteenth century. The &#8220;past\u00e9is de leite&#8221; were kind of similar to the &#8220;<i>past\u00e9is de nata<\/i>&#8221; as we know, but the dough was more firm.<\/p>\n<p>The first &#8220;<i>past\u00e9is de nata<\/i>&#8220;, with their puff pastry, only appeared one hundred years later, during the seventeenth century.

It is believed that it was invented by the monks, during the liberal revolution in 1820. The Portuguese convents and monasteries were closed, so the monks, in an attempt to survive, started to sell these pastries. Then, it is believed that an entrepreneur called Domingos Rafael Alves took the recipe from the monks, established in a former sugar refinery near the <strong><i>Jeronymos Monastery<\/i><\/strong>, and started selling the <i>past\u00e9is<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>However, some historians don&#8217;t believe that the actual <i>past\u00e9is de nata<\/i> recipe was born in the <strong><i>Mosteiro dos Jer\u00f3nimos<\/i><\/strong>. Because at that time, the Kings forbid the monks to use sugar. The kitchen activities were reserved to women, but there was no women in the Monastery. This leads historians to conclude that the recipe was actually born in the <strong><i>Mosteiro de Odivelas<\/i><\/strong>, where it was found in the notebook of the Abbess Bernadina da Concei\u00e7\u00e3o who died in 1866.<\/p>\n<p>While the true origins of the <i>Past\u00e9is de Nata<\/i> recipe are not very clear.
