Method

  1. Warm the cinnamon in the oil in the pan for 30 seconds, until it smells sweet, then scrape it into the bowl.
  2. Separate the eggs. Whisk in the mashed squash, yolks, yogurt and milk, fold in the flour, baking powder and poppy seeds, and rest 10 minutes.
  3. Whip the whites to soft peaks, fold them through, and cook ladlefuls over medium-low heat under a lid, 3 minutes a side, until risen and browned. Stack and trickle the maple syrup over.
Chef’s tipWarm the cinnamon in the oil for thirty seconds first: raw ground spice tastes dusty and no syrup covers it. Then whip the whites and fold them in for height.
KeepKeeps 2 days chilled. Freezes 2 months. Warm from frozen in a 160°C (325°F) oven for 8 minutes. Roast the squash on prep day alongside whatever else is in the oven, then mash it; it keeps 4 days chilled.
SwapNo poppy seeds? Black sesame, toasted first, looks and eats much the same.
