Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh pumpkin puree. You can make your own puree by roasting a pumpkin and then blending it until smooth.
  • If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining ground cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
  • Be sure to let the batter rest for at least 10 minutes before frying the fritters. This will help the flour to absorb the liquid and make the fritters more tender.
  • When frying the fritters, be sure to use a deep fryer or large saucepan with at least 2 inches of oil. This will help the fritters to cook evenly.
  • Serve the fritters warm with maple syrup, honey, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Spicy pumpkin fritters are a delicious and easy-to-make fall treat. They're perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. The pumpkin puree and spices give the fritters a warm and cozy flavor, while the cayenne pepper adds a bit of heat. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce for a truly unforgettable experience.
