Chickpea Butternut Pumpkin Patties


Chickpeas have a delicious nutty taste and buttery texture. Pumpkins are naturally low in calories and fat, rich in vitamin A and an excellent source of fiber. The match of chickpeas and pumpkins, for me, is the match made in heaven.
Not only are they delicious, healthy, and loaded with nutrients, but they could also be used to make a variety of healthier holiday or daily treats. These patties are very easy to make and bursting with flavours.

  1. Place butternut pumpkin puree, chickepea puree, glutinous rice flour and honey in a bowl. Mix with your hand until you have a smooth dough. Add more glutinous rice flour if needed.
  2. Divide it into 35 portions, each about 26 grams. Shape each into a ball. Divide the poppy paste into 35 portions too. Roll each pumpkin dough into a round, fill the center with poppy paste, and then seal to enclose the filling. Lightly press it down to flatten the ball.
  3. Heat up a skillet with some corn oil and pan fry patties over the low-medium heat until golden brown.

    These look amazing. I am a little confused about the butternut pumpkin puree. What is it? Pumpkin or butternut squash or either or both?

  25. Butternut squash and chickpeas are 2 of my favorites! i don't know what Poppy paste is though? And is the glutinous rice flour essential or can regular flour be subbed? I LOVE the look of these and so want to try them! Thanks!

  35. Interesting combo of chickpeas and pumpkin. I wonder how poppy paste plays a part in terms of flavour? Can't get anything 'poppy' in singapore as it's regarded as a narcotic. Any suitable substitute to recommend?

    ReplyDelete

    Amazing patties! I never thought to combine the flavors before, but now that you've put them together I'm definitely thinking good things about it :) Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  37. You always come up with something different and delicious! Fantastic!

    ReplyDelete
  38. Debbi Does Dinner Healthy: You can use flour instead, but the taste and texture would be very different. Poppy paste is mainly prepared with ground poppy seeds, and oil. You don't have to use poppy paste as the filling, others like red bean paste, or black sesame paste would be great too.
    busygran: Yes, use any bean paste instead if you can't get poppy pasta.

    ReplyDelete
  39. the patties looks so nice, I love the shining surface and color.

    ReplyDelete

  90. Looks really tasty! How do you puree the Chickpeas in a blender?

    Also does pumkin work instead of Butternut Squash?

    ReplyDelete
  91. @Tony@LED Grow Lights
    I just threw them (with a little of water if a bit dry) in the blender, and turn it on. Process until smooth. And yes, you can use other types of pumpkin instead.

    ReplyDelete
