Easy Pumpkin Buns Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 cup grated fresh pumpkin
• 0.5 cup soft brown sugar
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
• vegetable oil for deep-frying

Instructions

1. In a small saucepan, combine the pumpkin, brown sugar, and salt over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the brown sugar is completely dissolved. Take the saucepan off the heat and let the mixture cool down to room temperature.
2. In a mixing bowl, incorporate the flour into the cooled pumpkin mixture until a dough forms. Incorporate 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil into the dough, then allow it to rest for 5 minutes. Divide the dough into 12 equal-sized balls and flatten each one into a disc approximately 2 inches in diameter.
3. In a skillet, heat the remaining vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the flattened dough in the hot oil until both sides are lightly golden brown. Place the cooked buns on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
