SPAGHETTI SQUASH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and blend well.
• Heat a small skillet on the stovetop, add butter or cooking spray.
• Pour in batter, and spread into a disk with a spoon.
• Cook pancake slowly on medium heat for about 3-6 minutes (or when batter starts to bubble) and then flip.
• Continue to cook for 2-3 minutes on the other side. Repeat with remaining batter.
• Serve warm, with an extra pat of butter if desired.

SPAGHETTI SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• Place the squash in a large bowl. If it's too moist, wrap it in some paper towels and squeeze out the excess liquid.
• Add the arrowroot starch/flour, salt, green onion, and bacon and stir to combine well.
• Whisk the eggs in a small bowl, then add them to the squash mixture and stir to combine.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add enough oil to coat the pan, and when it's hot, spoon the squash mixture to form fritters of your desired size; 1/4 cup per fritter works well.
• When the fritters are crispy and browned on one side, about 5 minutes, use a spatula to flip them and continue cooking on the other side until crisped, about 5 minutes longer. Serve hot.

SPICED SQUASH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275 degrees. In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add shallots, jalapenos, and ginger and cook, stirring, until softened, 7 minutes. Stir in cumin and coriander and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Let cool slightly, 5 minutes.
• Transfer to a large bowl and stir in squash, eggs, and flour. Wipe out skillet, then lightly coat skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium. In batches, add batter in 1/4 cupfuls to skillet and cook until pancakes are golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes, flipping halfway through. Transfer pancakes to oven to keep warm; repeat with remaining batter.

SPAGHETTI SQUASH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Add flour& cheese to the strands of the cooked spaghetti squash.
• Mix well, using a couple of forks.
• Depending on the flavor you wish, or your dietary preferences, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat or heat olive oil in skillet instead.
• Spoon 1/4 cup squash mixture into prepared skillet.
• With a fork, press to form an evenly thick cake.
• Repeat to fill skillet.
• Cook cakes until bottoms are lightly browned, turn over and brown second side.
• Continue until you've used all the squash mixture (keep the cakes already made warm in an oven set at its lowest temperature until you are ready to serve).
• Use additional butter or oil as necessary for cooking.
• Sprinkle pancakes with salt and pepper and serve with sour cream and/or apple sauce.

BAKED SPAGHETTI SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• For the spaghetti squash, slice it in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, and either: 1) place the spaghetti squash cut-side down in a 9X13-inch pan with an inch of water and bake at 400 degrees F for 30-35 minutes until a fork pierces through the skin very easily OR 2) use the beloved Instant Pot method detailed here (basically, add 1 cup of water and the rack to the IP, add the spaghetti squash, seal the lid, and cook at high pressure for 7 minutes, quick release the pressure, and you are good to go).
• Scrape out the tender, cooked strands of spaghetti squash when it is cool enough to handle. Measure 2 packed cups (about 16-18 ounces) into a medium bowl. Let the squash cool to room temperature.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Add the egg, garlic powder, parsley, salt, pepper, panko, Parmesan, and flour to the bowl with the squash. Mix until evenly combined.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and generously grease with nonstick cooking spray (don't skimp here or the fritters will stick!).
• Scoop out the fritter dough onto the prepared baking sheet in mounds, a couple inches apart. I use about 2-3 tablespoons for each fritter (works great to get a heaping scoop in my #40 cookie scoop and portion out that way).
• Flatten the mounds until they are evenly about 1/4-inch thick or so.
• Bake the fritters for 10 minutes until they are browning on the bottom. Remove the pan from the oven and using a thin, metal spatula, flip the fritters and bake for another 8-10 minutes until golden on both sides.
• Serve immediately!

• Spoon the spaghetti squash mixture onto the skillet, measuring 1/4 cup per fritter. Lightly flatten with a spatula. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Flip them carefully - they're delicate.
