Winter is a time for more decadent meals that are warm and comforting! I’ve adapted this recipe from the traditional fritter type to a simpler flapjack-style breakfast option.
Ingredients
- 500g cooked pumpkin, mashed or blended until smooth
- 2 eggs
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 250g flour
- 1 teaspoon mixed spice
- 1 tablespoon butter
- honey or maple syrup to serve
- grilled bacon
Method
- Combine the flour, baking powder, salt, mixed spice in a bowl
- Whisk together the eggs and pumpkin and stir into dry ingredients. Strain through a sieve to remove lumps if necessary
- Melt butter in a non-stick pan and fry fritters until golden and cooked on both sides
CHEF’S TIP: Serve drizzled with honey or maple syrup and crispy bacon for breakfast or with apple compote and yoghurt for dessert or a tea-time treat!
