This recipe was adapted from The Abel & Cole Cookbook. The original recipe calls for some chopped black olives as well, but I didn’t have them on hand. If you have a jar of black olives at your disposal, do try and put some into these rolls. I bet they’ll taste great!
Ingredients:
- 120g pumpkin or squash, grated
- 190g all purpose flour
- 10g baking powder
- 30g + 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
- 2 eggs lightly beaten
- 1 tablespoon milk
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 190°C. Lightly grease a medium sized baking pan.
In a big bowl, combine grated pumpkin, flour, baking powder, salt, rosemary and 30 grams of Parmesan cheese. Add the eggs and milk and mix with a wodden spoon. The dough will be quite wet and somewhat sticky. If necessary, add some more flour so you can shape the rolls.
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and transfer each to the baking pan. Lightly flour your hands and shape the dough portions into 4 round patties. Sprinkle then with some flour and the rest of Parmesan cheese.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until nicely browned. Remove from oven, slightly cool on a wire rack and serve warm.
