Best Spaghetti Squash Fritters Recipes

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.

FAST AND EASY SPAGHETTI SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• The best way to cook Spaghetti Squash is to stab it a few times with a small knife. Microwave on High for 7 minutes, roll it over, and nuke til it gives when you push on it (about 7 minutes depending on the size of your squash). Cool til you can handle it. Chop off the stem end, cut lengthwise, scoop out the fibers and the seeds. With a fork, scrape out the spaghetti. Mix with all other ingredients and pan fry by large spoonfuls til crispy and golden brown. Warning -- These are addictive!
