Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 1/2 oz water
  • 1/4 cup butternut squash purée
  • Oil (for frying)
  • Powdered sugar for sprinkling
  • Honey for serving

Steps

  • 1
    In a large bowl, mix together all ingredients.
  • 2
    On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough with your hands until stretchy, soft and well-mixed. The dough should not be sticky. Let rest for 15-20 minutes.
  • 3
    Using a rolling pin, roll the dough to 1/3” thickness. Cut dough into 12 squares.
  • 4
    In a deep pan or fryer, heat oil to 350ºF. In batches, fry squares of dough until they puff up and turn golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
  • 5
    Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve with honey.

Expert Tips
