I'm not a fan of pumpkin, but I decided to try these fritters anyway and I'm so glad I did! They were delicious. I'll definitely be making them again.

I'm allergic to eggs, so I substituted a flax egg in this recipe and they turned out great! I was so happy to find a pumpkin fritter recipe that I could enjoy.

These fritters are a great way to use up leftover pumpkin puree. I always have some on hand in the fall and winter, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use it in.

I followed the recipe exactly and my fritters turned out flat and dense. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These fritters were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
