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!
