Butternut Fritters

Great as a starter or snack, these fritters are creamy and delicious with a hint of spice.

Ingredients:

2 cups cooked and mashed or pureed butternut

1 tablespoon butter

½ cup flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ teaspoon ground ginger

1 egg

Method:

Simply mix all the ingredient together, and fry spoonfuls in canola or sunflower oil (canola is better for your <3) until golden brown. Leave to rest on kitchen towel, and make your sugar mixture by placing about 1/3 of a cup of sugar and 1 to 2 teaspoons of cinnamon in a bowl. Mix well and use to coat the fritters. Serve nice and hot (a few seconds in the microwave won’t harm the fritters if they go cold), with a squeeze of lemon juice. As tasty and comforting as pancakes, with all the goodness of a vegetable!
