Pumpkin and apple fritters are very tender, tasty and juicy. Such an unusual dessert is best done for breakfast, because after it comes a lot of satiety, and I absolutely do not want to eat until late in the afternoon. In addition, these flour products with vegetables and fruits are much more useful than ordinary pancakes, which were cooked in kefir or milk.

Essential ingredients for the base:
- whole pumpkin or a slice of a large vegetable - 350 g;
- medium-sized sweet apple - 2 pcs.;
- village milk of maximum fat content - ½ cup;
- granulated sugar - 1 large spoon (if desired, you can increase);
- flour, sifted, wheat - 4 large spoons with a hill;
- standard chicken egg - 1 pc.;
- small iodized salt - add to taste;
- refined sunflower oil for frying products.
Vegetable processing
Pumpkin and apple fritters are prepared from fresh vegetables and fruits (not boiled). Thus, you need to purchase a small piece of soft pumpkin, and then wash it well, peel it, peel, seeds and coarse fibers. After this, the product needs to be grated and put in a deep bowl.
Fruit processing
Pumpkin and apple fritters will turn out to be tasty and juicy, if only hard and sweet fruits are used to make such a dessert. They must be washed, peeled from the seed box and finely peeled if it is covered with wax. Next, apples need to be crushed using a large or small grater.
Kneading process
After the fruits and vegetables are carefully processed, they should be combined in one container, and then the following components should be added to them: village milk of maximum fat content, granulated sugar, chicken egg, small iodized salt and sifted wheat flour. All ingredients need to be mixed, as a result of which you should get a viscous orange base.
Heat treatment
Pumpkin and apple fritters are fried in a pan in the same way as a similar dessert made on the basis of kefir. To do this, it is necessary to warm up the stewpan with sunflower oil, and then lay several semi-finished products from viscous dough on its surface. Next, fritters need to be fried from 2 sides (within 10-12 minutes) and move to a plate.
How to serve for breakfast
Delicious and satisfying pumpkin pancakes (see the photo of the dish above) should be presented hot for breakfast. It is advisable to put such a dish in a pile on a plate, and pour on top with maple syrup, fresh floral honey or condensed milk. It is also recommended to serve sweet tea or strong coffee for this dessert.
Good advice to housewives
In order to significantly reduce the cooking time of such a dish in a pan, it is possible to add steamed pumpkin, not raw pumpkin, to the dough for fritters. To do this, it is advisable to put the peeled vegetable in a double boiler and heat treat for 17-20 minutes. Such a process will make the product much softer and more tender.
