Although I've had pumpkin patties a number of ways (& enjoyed most of them, to be sure), THESE WERE OUT-OF-THE-ORDINARY & VERY SATISFYING! And although it was probably the intent of the recipe to use a regular onion, I used a sweeter Vadalia! I also used whole wheat crumbs that I dried & crumbled myself! Thanks for the new pumpkin recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Every Day Is a Holiday tag]
