Here's a couple from Cooks.com:

SUMMER SQUASH FRITTERS

2 c. finely grated summer squash
2 eggs, separated
1 tsp. salt, plus a dash
1/2 c. heavy cream
1 c. flour
1 tsp. baking powder

Combine. Beat egg whites and fold in last. Bake on a buttered griddle like pancakes.

SQUASH PANCAKES

1 lb. yellow squash, about 2 lg. ones
1 lg. beaten egg
1/2 c. flour
2 tbsp. grated onion
2 tbsp. cooking oil
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder

Grate squash and onion. Combine all ingredients and mix well. Drop by spoonfuls on hot griddle and cook until golden on both sides. Makes about 12.

Well, friends, while I know that you guys would never abuse by privacy, I don't like the fact that this group/our posts are searchable from the world's largest search engine. So, in a weak effort for more privacy(probably only keeping the honest folks honest), I intend to leave the list and reincarnate my identity. I've been here so long that you will have no problems recognizing me in my new identity, but I request that you don't refer to me by my old name, my real name, my farm name or any monikers like Bevstinator that might be cross linked in one post.
Ok, so since I have been on vacation this week, I have been baking like mad, making squash bread, squash muffins, etc. I've already put a bunch of squash in the freezer, made squash casseroles, and now have over 20 loaves or equivalents of bread. All this from four squash plants-I had 10 minutes free last spring and went out and just poked some seeds into the mulch. Voila, bountiful harvest of petit pan and crooknecks.
I grated the largest squashes and used most of that for the breads. I ran out of pecans about halfway through(how the heck do you live in GA and run out of pecans??) so I subbed on a batch or two using mixes of sunflower kernels, flax seeds, sesame seeds, sliced almonds, and millet. All of them turned out really well, so I say- don't be afraid to sub out ingredients...my recipe was actually for zucchini bread, but not one zuke was used in any of the 10 batches I made. Ok, on to my question...
I have about 4 cups of grated squash left. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel...I don't want to make any more bread...I have plenty of plain squash seasoned and frozen..no mas on the casseroles...what can I do?? The only thing I can come up with is pancakes...anyone got a recipe or any other ideas?
