Christmas Recipes – Pumpkin Bilharacos:

1 Cook the pumpkin with a cinnamon stick. Once cooked, squeeze it well to remove excess water and set aside overnight.

2 In a bowl, mix the squeezed pumpkin with the egg, lemon zest, and ground cinnamon to taste.

3 Gradually add the flour to the mixture, ensuring it is well combined.

4 Chop the peanuts and add them to the batter, along with the baking powder.

5 Turn on your air fryer and preheat it.

6 Place parchment paper on the air fryer rack and pour in the batter little by little, forming small cakes.

7 Cook the cakes in the air fryer at 170°C for 7 minutes to achieve a crispy texture.

8 While the cakes are cooking, mix sugar and cinnamon on a plate.

9 After removing the cakes from the air fryer, brush them with agave syrup and coat them in the sugar-and-cinnamon mixture.
