I call these Pumpkin Pancakes so that Adelaide will eat them. This was a favourite of mine as a child and is a great way to get rid of leftover pumpkin (or sweet potato).
Ingredients:
1 cup of pumpkin
1/2 cup of flour
1/2 tsp of baking powder
dash of salt
cinnamon to taste
1 egg
1/4 cup of sugar (you can leave the sugar out or reduce it)
Directions:
Make a batter with all the ingredients and then drop in a pan and fry until golden on each side (like a pancake).
Keep warm in the oven.
Mix cinnamon and sugar in a shaker and dust the fritters when you’re serving.
These freeze great between pieces of wax paper and can be toasted in your toaster. Totally baby friendly too.
[…] Also – this makes a ton of filling. You could mix it with flour and milk and make a pancake batter and then have sweet potato pancakes for breakfast. Check out this post for ideas Pumpkin Pancakes. […]
