Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Pumpkin puree
- 0.75 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups Panko breadcrumbs
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.75 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, eggs, garlic powder, cumin, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.
Gradually add the all-purpose flour and breadcrumbs, stirring until the mixture reaches a thick, scoopable consistency. If the mixture is too wet, add a bit more breadcrumbs or flour.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Using a spoon or a small ice cream scoop, scoop about 2 tablespoons of the pumpkin mixture and gently flatten it between your palms to form a patty.
Carefully place the patties into the heated skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Transfer cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat the process with the remaining pumpkin mixture, adding more oil to the pan as needed.
Once all the patties are cooked, garnish with chopped fresh cilantro if desired and serve warm.
