Fluffy Pumpkin-Feta Fritters - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 medium pie pumpkin or (15 ounce) cans pumpkin puree
4 eggs (separated)
1/4 red onion, finely diced
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup fresh oregano, finely chopped
1 1/4 cups flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
pepper
cooking spray
Preparation
-
Cut the pumpkin in half, scoop out the goop (and reserve the seeds to bake later!).
Roast the pumpkin at 375 F for about an hour.
Scoop out the cooked pumpkin and mash or puree.
Add the egg yolks to the mashed pumpkin.
Using a stand or hand mixer, beat the egg whites until they are foamy and form soft peaks.
Fold the egg white into the pumpkin, and mix in the remaining ingredients.
Spray a large pan with cooking spray.
Over medium heat, drop a spoonful of the pumpkin mixture into the pan. One spoonful will create a 2-3 inch fritter. To make your life easier, cook no more than four fritters at once.
After approximately 2 minutes, flip the fritter.
After 2 minutes on the second side, set aside.
Continue with the remaining batter until you're done!
