BUTTERNUT SQUASH FRITTERS- Gluten Free

 

Ingredients:

5 cups shredded butternut squash

⅔  cups gluten free bread crumbs or you can use Almond Flour

2 large eggs, lightly beaten

1 teaspoon garlic

¼ teaspoon fine grain salt

⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine the shredded butternut squash, bread crumbs, eggs, garlic, ¼ teaspoon salt and ⅛ teaspoon pepper to the bowl, stirring until the mixture is combined. Line a plate with paper towels.

Liberally coat the bottom of a large sauté pan with vegetable oil and place it over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, scoop 3-tablespoon mounds of the mixture into the pan, pressing them lightly into rounds and spacing them at least 2 inches apart. Cook the fritters for 2 to 3 minutes, then flip them once and cook an additional 2 minutes until golden brown and cooked throughout. Transfer the fritters to the paper towel-lined plate and immediately sprinkle them with salt. Repeat the scooping and cooking process with the remaining mixture.
