Pumpkin fritters. Pumpkin fritters: a recipe for cooking Pumpkin fritters recipes for kids

Not so long ago I discovered a recipe for dessert pumpkin fritters. I don’t really respect pumpkin in cereals, but this product is very useful and you need to eat its food, so I was looking for where else to use it. And then my mother came to the rescue and advised me to make such a delicacy as pumpkin pancakes. Believe it or not, we didn’t feel the pumpkin flavor in them at all, though we also added an apple to the dough.

Today I made a selection of recipes from raw and boiled pumpkin, as well as with various additives that can greatly affect the taste and nutritional value of the finished dish.

To make your pancakes always turn out, I want to give some tips that experienced housewives have already identified.

  1. Any base, be it milk, sour cream or kefir, needs to be warmed up or simply removed from the refrigerator in advance. Somewhere around two hours.
  2. Eggs are taken at room temperature.
  3. Sift the flour two or three times before adding it to the dough, then the dough will become airy.
  4. It is necessary to fry on medium heat, otherwise the sides will burn, and the middle will remain raw.
  5. Pancakes from boiled pumpkin are more tender and there is less pumpkin flavor.
  6. Soda is introduced into kefir, its acid should be enough to extinguish it. Therefore, it is better to take kefir not the freshest, standing for a couple of days.
  7. For pancakes, choose a nutmeg meaty pumpkin, it has more sugar and vitamins. Large-fruited varieties are also suitable, if nutmeg was not at hand.
  8. If you have a non-stick pan, then add one tablespoon of vegetable oil to any dough so that the dough easily moves away from the bottom.

We have already prepared this dish before, and. But the ratio of ingredients changes slightly when new products are introduced. After all, it is worth considering whether they will give juice and whether it is worth increasing the amount of flour because of this.

In my opinion, this is the easiest and most delicious pancake recipe. Apples give a unique flavor, and in combination with pumpkin, they reduce the calorie content of food. Children will definitely appreciate the food, especially if served with sour store-bought sour cream.

It tastes like a sweet and sour product. But, if you take more sugar, then the sweetness will increase. I am for less sugar and more natural taste.


Ingredients:

  • 300 g pumpkin
  • 100 g apples
  • 3 tbsp Sahara
  • 2 eggs
  • 150 ml kefir
  • 200 g flour
  • 1 tsp soda
  • Sunflower oil

We cut the peeled pieces of pumpkin from seeds and peel, put it in the chopper bowl.

We peel the peel from the apples and remove the middle, cut the fruit into slices and lower it to the pumpkin.


Turn on your blender or food processor. You can replace this technique with a grater, then choose the large side of the grater and do everything manually.

Now we drive eggs to this mixture, pour kefir and sprinkle with sugar. Mix thoroughly.


Sift the flour into the dough, put the soda in the final step. It will begin to react to the acid of kefir, so for now we will put the mass aside and begin to prepare the container for frying.


Choose a heavy-bottomed frying pan, grease it with oil and heat it over high heat.


As soon as we start frying the dough, we immediately reduce the intensity of the fire to medium, otherwise it will simply burn with us.

Pumpkin can be taken frozen and boiled until tender. Then the dough will be homogeneous without grains and it will be difficult to guess what you have added inside.

A simple recipe for pumpkin and cottage cheese fritters

Some people call these pancakes cheese pancakes with pumpkin, but you and I, first of all, should be seduced by their taste, not the name. So, we add one more ingredient - cottage cheese. You can take any fat content, it also makes no difference whether you buy it or boil it yourself.
Just remember that the curd grains will be visible in the finished cake and felt in the mouth. Not everyone may like this.

I think it's better to grind the grains through a sieve or with a fork.


Ingredients:

  • 200 g cottage cheese
  • 300 g pumpkin
  • 3 tbsp flour
  • 2 tbsp Sahara
  • Vegetable oil

If your cottage cheese is not crumbly, but purchased in a bar, then gently knead it with a fork.


Whisk in the eggs and mix in the curd.

We rub the pumpkin on a fine grater, combine it with the curd mixture and sprinkle with sugar.


Sift the flour and add it to the dough, mixing everything well.

You can add cinnamon for flavor.

Fry the dough in a hot frying pan with hot oil.

If you overdo it with oil, then spread out a paper towel and pancakes removed from the pan, put on it. So the towel will absorb unnecessary fat, and you will eat fewer wrong calories.

Lush pancakes on kefir

Oh how we all love fluffy pancakes! On a kefir basis, it is easy to make them, because kefir perfectly extinguishes soda. But for this, it is necessary that he sweats in the refrigerator for a couple of days and becomes more vigorous, and also that he warms up warm for a couple of hours before the cooking process.

Then he will have a good concentration of acid and will not have to resort to vinegar. I will still give a recipe using vinegar, because with it everything is a little more complicated than just pouring soda into kefir.


Ingredients for 21 pieces:

  • 350 g peeled pumpkin
  • 0.5 l kefir
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbsp Sahara
  • 1 tsp soda
  • 2 tsp vinegar 9%
  • 500 - 550 g flour
  • Vegetable oil

We rub the pumpkin on a fine grater.

In a separate deep bowl, mix eggs with salt and sugar. Then pour warm kefir and add the sifted flour.



Now pour out the soda and extinguish it with vinegar. Vinegar can be omitted if you are sure that kefir acid will be enough to interact with soda.


Check the dough, the pumpkin could start up the juice and dilute the mass a little. If it worked out for you, add a couple more tablespoons of flour.
Let the mass sit for 10 minutes.


Pour a little oil into the pan, heat it well and spread the pancakes, immediately reduce the fire.


Fry until golden brown, see how well the dough rises.

Recipe with raw pumpkin in the oven

All of the above recipes are based on the raw part of the pumpkin. This is the most common option, when in the autumn period, you need to clean up all the vegetables, and even better, eat them in order to get enough vitamins for the winter.

But it can also be replaced with boiled pumpkin mass. I will talk about this a little later. Now let's look at how we cook pancakes without a frying pan.


Ingredients:

  • 400 gr peeled pumpkin
  • 2 tbsp Sahara
  • 0.5 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tbsp yogurt
  • 1.5 cups flour
  • some salt
  • Oil for greasing the mold

Rub the pumpkin slice peeled and seeds on a coarse grater.


Now add three eggs, yogurt, cinnamon sugar and flour to the pumpkin bowl.

We mix the dough. It should have the consistency of thick sour cream.


Take a deep mold and line it with parchment paper. The paper must be greased with vegetable oil, otherwise you will tear off the finished pancakes along with it.


Now spread the lumps of dough at a small distance from each other.

Bake them in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 15 minutes. Then take out the mold and gently turn them over with a spatula to the other side and leave in the oven for another 10 minutes.

How to make pumpkin pancakes without eggs

Well, here comes the turn of the most dietary and lean recipe. It is for true gourmets who recognize the taste purity of products. There is practically nothing in it except flour and the pumpkin itself.

By the way, this is where we use a cooked vegetable, not a fresh one. Frozen pumpkin is also perfect for cooking.


Ingredients:

  • 400 g pumpkin
  • 3 tbsp Sahara
  • 1.5 cups flour
  • Vanillin
  • 0.5 tsp soda
  • Quarter of lemon

Steam the pumpkin and pass it through a sieve. It will turn out very soft, so you can even just grind the pulp with a fork into a homogeneous puree.

Add sugar, vanillin and soda slaked with lemon juice to it. Now add the sifted flour. This is an important condition for the pancakes to become lush.

Look at the consistency, it should become like thick sour cream. Therefore, you may need less flour.


The dough differs from the usual only in color.

Also pour it into the pan, forming circles and fry until cooked through over medium heat.

I think that this treat with pumpkin is still more suitable for dessert or an afternoon snack, so add more spicy seasonings: vanilla, cinnamon or lemon zest. You will immediately feel how their taste will change for the better.

Recipe without flour with semolina

I also want to tell you about an interesting recipe without flour. We will make a thickening base from semolina and oatmeal. But, both of these ingredients take time to swell and become soft, only then they will not be felt in the pancakes in the finished treat. Flakes can be taken not whole, but ground to make the dough softer.


Ingredients:

  • 400 g pumpkin
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 tbsp decoys
  • 2 tbsp oatmeal
  • 3 tbsp Sahara
  • ¼ tsp salt

Grate the pumpkin finely. We drive eggs into it, add sugar and semolina.

Oatmeal is better to grind a little in a blender. And pour them into a common bowl.

Pumpkin dough should not turn out liquid, it will be better if it keeps its shape on a spoon.


Choose a pan with high sides and a thick bottom.

Lubricate the bottom and spread the dough, not forgetting to leave a distance between the cakes.

Turn the heat down to medium so that the pancakes have time to cook.

We spread the finished pancakes on a paper towel so that excess fat from frying is removed from them and serve.


Semolina fritters are much tastier when hot, so try to cook them just before serving. But, of course, they can always be reheated in the microwave or oven.

Video on how to make savory pancakes with zucchini

And yet the pumpkin is combined with vegetables and fruits, as well as with meat. Therefore, I will give a video on how to cook savory pumpkin pancakes.

You may want to use more than just wheat flour. And replace it, for example, with corn or rye. Then the taste will be more interesting and unusual than the usual ones.

Thank you for your attention and I will be happy to know how you feel about pumpkin pancakes.

Nadys, I promised lovers of vegetable dishes to lay out delicious pumpkin pancakes. I post it, and not even in a year, but in just a couple of weeks. And all because pumpkin helps with sclerosis and selective amnesia (just kidding, just kidding).

In fact, this year I have grown pumpkins immeasurably, so we stew-steam-cook-fry-bake everything with pumpkin every other day, potatoes yearn for nothing in the basement, I’m even somehow uncomfortable in front of her. Moreover, dad handed over from his miracle garden under the river several pumpkins the size of a carriage (well, not from a carriage, but 15-20 kg each). In general, I'm covered in pumpkins up to the very tomatoes, y-hee-hee!

My pumpkin pancakes are made quite elementary, now I will tell you everything step by step.

To create delicious pumpkin pancakes, we need:

  • 600-700g peeled and seeded pumpkin
  • 3 eggs
  • 3 tablespoons sour cream
  • 5-6 heaping tablespoons of flour
  • 2 teaspoons sugar (optional)
  • A pinch of salt
  • Vegetable oil for frying

From the indicated amount of products, 2.5 - 3 large pans of pancakes are obtained.

Delicious pumpkin fritters recipe:

  1. Beat the eggs with a whisk with salt, add sour cream and flour, stir until smooth with the same whisk or blender.
  2. We clean the pumpkin from the peel and bones, weigh the right amount, remove the excess in a bag in the refrigerator (we will soon cook soup from it, so it will not be lost!).
  3. Three pumpkins on a fine grater. Pumpkin is not a squash for you, especially late varieties - it will take a little more time to rub it, so let's concentrate on the heart chakra and let's go!
  4. We mix the grated pumpkin with our egg-sour cream mixture, mix thoughtfully and thoroughly so that the dough envelops all the pumpkin shavings.
  5. We heat the oil in a frying pan and spread our pancakes with a tablespoon. One spoon with top - one pancake. If smooth edges are more aesthetically pleasing to you, after laying out each pancake, immediately correct its shape with a silicone spatula.
  6. We slowly fry our pancakes on both sides over a fire slightly less than average, so that the pumpkin has time to cook and does not make a raw crunch. To golden color, yes.

Delicious pumpkin pancakes are ready! Well, of course, you can not put sugar if the pancakes go as a side dish. And, of course, you can put sugar, and more, and rub an apple without a skin into these pancakes. And you can also throw a little curd in them if there is nowhere else to attach it. Although in this case, I would advise you to better master the airy cottage cheese casserole (I will write a recipe soon, I swear!).

I love pumpkin pancakes without any bells and whistles, just with fresh natural sour cream, my husband likes them too, and the kid said that he saw them in a coffin, with any sauce. Today I seriously talked with him about healthy and unhealthy food (harmful, of course, we have conditionally only sweets so far).

He seemed to be even a little imbued (as far as it is possible to be imbued with such topics at the age of 5). Because for lunch I even ate a little oven-baked pumpkin with chicken, and for dinner I ate a good piece of cottage cheese casserole, which I experimented with in a slow cooker today. But the pumpkin with chicken turned out really tasty, these are not vile sugary gruels for you. Awesome thing. I will also write soon.

Pumpkin has always been considered the cheapest vegetable. Not without reason, even in the fairy tale about Cinderella, the carriage was magically turned from a large pumpkin. But it turned out that the “simple” pumpkin is not so simple! According to the content of nutrients, pumpkin will give odds to any vegetable. That is why we need to cook pumpkin dishes more often, but if our picky children and husbands do not want to eat healthy, we, the housewives, have to contrive, inventing dishes that even the most picky will not refuse.

Pumpkin fritters are one of the easy and effective ways to fall in love with pumpkin dishes. Depending on the ingredients that make up the pancakes, they can be served as an independent dish, quite capable of replacing breakfast or a pre-dinner snack (or even dinner - if calories are important to you!), or served as a dessert. Sour cream, honey, jam and all kinds of sauces, sweet and savory, are served with pumpkin pancakes, as with ordinary pancakes.

For savory pancakes, you can use an ordinary pumpkin that grows in any village garden, but for a dessert option, it is best to buy a nutmeg pumpkin - it is more fragrant and sweeter.

The point is small - among the recipes collected by our site, you will definitely choose the one that suits you!

The older children get, the more difficult it is for them to instill a taste for healthy food. It would seem that grown-up boys and girls, young young people and future young ladies already understand more than unintelligent babies, they can be explained the harm of decorated sweets and breakfast cereals, demonstrate the delicious aroma of Roquefort and the delicate structure of brie, give them a taste of a piece of silky soufflé and a sip of fragrant onion soup. But no. Arguing very maturely about not eating a lot of salted crackers and chocolate-covered marshmallows, the daughter reaches out for a doctor's sandwich and refuses.
We have to look for compromises and, as in the period of the first feeding, hide the useful in what the baby eats with pleasure.

Pancakes for breakfast are almost always the key to success. A rare child will refuse golden fluffy pancakes - sweet, soft, airy. And - oh, a miracle! - it turns out that if you cook pumpkin pancakes, children's love for such a breakfast instantly increases - maybe because of the pleasant yellow color? Or a particularly tender crumb? I don’t know what the secret is, but it’s been proven: pumpkin pancakes are one of the easiest ways to feed a child tasty and relatively healthy.

Cooking pumpkin pancakes:

We clean the pumpkin, rub it on a fine grater.
Add a little salt, leave for 5 minutes, then squeeze the juice.
Mix pumpkin pulp with kefir and egg, add soda, sugar and flour. Knead a fairly thick dough. If the mass is liquidish, the pancakes will rise when baking in a pan, and fall off on a plate, they will not be airy. If, on the contrary, you shift the flour, the pancakes will turn out to be rubbery, dense. The task is to find your personal golden mean and, believe me, not a single recipe will give it to you, all proportions are very, very conditional. The juiciness of the pumpkin, the amount of squeezed juice, the fat content of kefir, the weight of the egg, the humidity of sugar and air in the kitchen - there are dozens of factors that will affect the final amount of flour in the dough.
There is only one recommendation - your culinary intuition. Well, and experience. Focusing on the basic recipe and the average weight of the ingredients, try, feel, experiment.

Bake pancakes in a well-heated frying pan with a small amount of vegetable oil on both sides until golden brown. Delicious with jam, sour cream and.
