These mini pea and sweetcorn fritters make a delicious healthy snack or breakfast which we sometimes serve with fried or poached eggs. We only ever use 1/2 teaspoon of the chilli flakes as this gives the fritters a bit of a kick, but doesn’t make them too spicy. When making these you might find that the fritters split or crack when you try to flip them over (it shouldn’t happen if you only use 1 teaspoon of the mixture). If this happens we’d recommend trying them with less mixture and making smaller fritters, this way it’s easier to flip them without breaking.

Pumpkin recipes are blowing up Pinterest this year, more than I remember seeing before. I love the put-pumpkin-in-everything craze as much as anyone, but this year I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed by it all. Maybe because it started too early, before I was even thinking about pumpkins. Maybe because I’ve had pumpkins on my porch for almost 2 months and I’ve yet to actually cut one open. Either way, I’m late to this game. If you’re not all pumpkin-ed out yet, you may enjoy this recipe for chocolate pumpkin bread. It’s free of nuts, dairy, gluten and all grains.
