First I made steamed buns and pancakes with pumpkin, then I made rice pudding and porridge with pumpkin, and yesterday I made these pumpkin flavored cheese balls with pumpkin. It's soft, sweet, cheesy and super tasty right out of the oven. I fell in love with it the first time I made this. For those who like crunchy texture, you can also make it by deep frying, which is definitely better than baking, so I just baked it for my family's health, and it tasted superb. If you like sweet flavors, we recommend adding the right amount of sugar when kneading.

Tips:
1, when making pumpkin cheese balls, the amount of pumpkin puree and glutinous rice flour is recommended to be adjusted according to the different water content of pumpkin puree. The dough should not be too soft or too hard. If the dough is hard, it will crack easily when baking, and if the dough is soft, it will collapse after baking;
2. Before using mozzarella, take it out of the freezer and let it thaw naturally at room temperature;
3. If you don't have cooked sesame seeds at home, you can replace them with breadcrumbs or coconut;
4. The baking time and temperature are for reference only. When doing so, it is recommended to make adjustments according to the actual situation of their own ovens;
5, if you use oil to fry, the oil temperature should not be too high, to fry slowly over low heat, the oil temperature is high and easy to fry batter;
