When you say pasteles, most people think of the traditional pasteles de masa, but there are many different kinds. One of the most popular variants is pasteles de yuca. As the name suggests, these delicious pasteles are made with yuca (rather than the green banana/yautia/yuca mix) and they are incredibly delicious! And since we are making them using pre-ground masa, they are also super quick and easy!
