Butternut Squash Patties Recipes

5-INGREDIENT BUTTERNUT SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the shredded butternut squash, flour, eggs, minced sage, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 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.

SQUASH PATTIES RECIPE

Steps:

• Finely chop yellow squash and place into a microwave-safe glass bowl along with onions and peppers.
• Microwave on HIGH for 9-10 minutes or until squash is thoroughly cooked and soft. Drain. Mash. Drain again. (I place cooked veggie mixture in a sieve and press on it with a big spoon.)
• Add remaining ingredients to cooked squash and stir to combine.
• Heat a large skillet on medium. Add oil and heat until it glistens. Drop batter by spoonfuls into your skillet without crowding. Flatten with the back of a spoon to make a patty.
• Cook until golden brown on one side, then flip to fry the other side (similar to making pancakes). Serve immediately.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine butternut squash, flour, garlic, eggs, thyme, sage and nutmeg; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Scoop tablespoons of batter for each fritter, flattening with a spatula, and cook until the underside is nicely golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side, about 1-2 minutes longer. Serve immediately.

BAKED BUTTERNUT SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400F° and grease or line with parchment paper a baking pan.
• Peel the butternut squash, chop it in half lengthways, remove the seeds and grate it. Measure 4 cups.
• In a bowl, place the shredded squash, eggs, sage, flour, parmesan, salt* & pepper. Mix well until combined.
• Take a heaping tablespoon of the mixture and form a ball. Place on baking pan and flatten slightly with your hand, so that each piece is about 1/2 inch thick.
• Bake the fritters for 10 minutes, then turn them over and keep baking for a further 10 minutes or until golden and crispy.
• Serve while they're still warm.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• Peel the butternut squash, chop it in half lengthways and remove the seeds. Grate the squash and weigh out 200g or 2 cups of it.
• Sieve the flour and baking powder into a large bowl. Add the eggs and milk and mix well.
• Stir in the grated butternut squash, spring onion, garlic and herbs and mix well.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Heat a little oil in a frying pan and add in a heaped tablespoon of the fritter batter. Press down gently with a spatula and repeat until the frying pan is full. I was able to cook 4 fritters at a time in my frying pan but it will depend on the size of yours. I made a total of 8 fritters from the batter.
• Fry the fritters on a medium heat for approximately 3-4 minutes on either side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
• Serve immediately with a little creme fraiche or greek yogurt for dipping.

SPINACH-STUFFED BUTTERNUT SQUASH PATTIES

Steps:

• Combine butternut squash, potato, onion, and salt in a large bowl; let sit until moisture is drawn out, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a colander and squeeze out excess moisture.
• Place squash mixture in a bowl and mix in flour, egg, black pepper, and baking powder until well blended.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir spinach until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season spinach with salt and pepper; transfer to a bowl.
• Scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons squash mixture and form into a small ball using your hands; flatten into a patty. Add 1 teaspoon spinach to the flattened patty and form patty around the spinach into a ball. Flatten the ball with the palms of your hands. Repeat using the remaining squash mixture and spinach creating 12 to 14 more spinach-stuffed patties.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook patties until lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer cooked patties to a plate and repeat with remaining oil and patties.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH PATTIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place butternut squash, cut-side up, in a 9x13-inch baking dish; cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until squash is tender, about 45 minutes. Cool slightly. Scoop flesh from butternut squash and transfer to a bowl; mash.
• Cook and stir pine nuts in a dry, heavy skillet over medium heat until toasted and fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Stir pine nuts, rice, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, basil, egg, ginger root, garlic, salt, and black pepper into mashed butternut squash until evenly combined; shape into patties.
• Heat oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat; cook patties, working in batches, until crispy and browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
