Delight your taste buds with these crispy and flavorful Pumpkin Patties, a perfect blend of savory spices and wholesome ingredients. Crafted with freshly grated pumpkin, aromatic garlic, and a hint of cumin and paprika, these patties deliver a satisfying crunch thanks to a touch of breadcrumbs. Quick and easy to prepare in just 40 minutes, they make an ideal appetizer, snack, or side dish. Serve them warm with your favorite dip or alongside a fresh salad for a light and wholesome meal. Packed with fall-inspired flavors and ready in no time, these golden, pan-fried patties are a must-try for pumpkin lovers.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated pumpkin, all-purpose flour, breadcrumbs, eggs, minced garlic, chopped onion, and cilantro.
Add the ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined. If the mixture feels too wet, add a little more breadcrumbs to achieve a moldable consistency.
Using your hands, form the mixture into small, round patties about 2 inches in diameter. Flatten them slightly for even cooking.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, place the patties in the skillet in a single layer, leaving enough space between them to flip easily.
Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp. Adjust the heat if necessary to avoid burning.
Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to remove any excess oil.
Serve the pumpkin patties warm with your favorite dipping sauce or as a side dish. Enjoy!
