Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, egg, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, and salt. Mix well until smooth.

  2. 2

    Add Dry Ingredients

    Gradually add the all-purpose flour to the pumpkin mixture, stirring until combined. Fold in the pepitas, walnuts, and cilantro.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking.

  4. 4

    Fry the Fritters

    Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve with Pomegranate

    Serve the fritters warm, sprinkled with pomegranate seeds on top.
