Pumpkin Fritters / Pampoenkoekies





My Easy Cooking
My radio is op RSG en Nina Timm deel haar Pumpkin Fritter resep, dit is of ek dit kan ruik en proe, ai is sommer lus en gaan gou huistoe om dit te maak.

Ingredients
500gr pumpkin - weigh after it has roasted, so you will have to roast about 800 gr (even butternut will do)
120g flour
½ tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon

2 tsp baking powder
2 eggs
vegetable oil for frying
cinnamon sugar for dusting

Peel and cut the pumpkin into chunks and roast in a preheated oven on 180C until the pumpkin is soft and has little bits of caramelizing. Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Mash the pumpkin and mix with all the other ingredients.Heat a little oil in a pan and when the oil is hot, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the oil. When golden brown on both sides, take out of the oil and drain. Dust with cinnamon sugar and serve.
