I love how recipes can bring you so close to memories, no matter how long ago they may be. Making these delicious pumpkin patties take me down memory lane to spending time in Puerto Rico, especially during the holiday season.

Since we moved to Florida, I started making homemade pumpkin patties myself to ease the cravings that reminded me so much of a place I once called home.

Well, they are a fresh pumpkin fry-up with a touch of vanilla and cinnamon. They have a soft and mushy consistency that will delight everyone's palate!

The sweet smell of this simple and traditional pumpkin recipe will give your house a delicious scent too.

And the sweet but not too sweet flavor will make everyone want to eat more and more. Even the kids will love these, and it is a great way to get them to eat pumpkin.

They never disappoint. Enjoy my sweet friends!
