Pattypan squash is a variety of summer squash (<i>Cucurbita pepo</i>) notable for its small size, round and shallow shape, and scalloped edges, somewhat resembling a small toy top, or flying saucer. The name "pattypan" derives from "a pan for baking a patty". Its French name, <i>pâtisson</i>, derives from a Provençal word for a cake made in a scalloped mould.
