Ingredients

  • 1. A generous cup of freshly grated pumpkin
  • 2. Half a cup of soft brown sugar
  • 3. A pinch of salt for flavor
  • 4. A cup filled with whole wheat flour
  • 5. A teaspoon of versatile vegetable oil
  • 6. Additional vegetable oil for the deep-frying process

Step 1

Mix the pumpkin, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan placed over medium-low heat. Let it simmer until the brown sugar completely dissolves. Once done, take it off the heat and let it cool down to room temperature for a bit.

Step 2

Next, blend in the flour with the now-cooled pumpkin mixture to create a smooth dough. Introduce a teaspoon of vegetable oil to the dough and give it a good rest for about 5 minutes. Shape the dough into 12 equal-sized balls and gently press them down to form 2-inch wide discs.

Step 3

In a skillet, warm up the rest of the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Cook the dough in the sizzling oil until golden brown on both sides. Once cooked, place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain off any excess oil.
