Ingredients

  • 1 butternut squash, about 3 pounds, peeled and shredded
  • ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon dried sage
  • ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  • 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.
