Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. Prepare a baking sheet by applying cooking spray.

  3. In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, carrot, parsnip, and squash, ensuring they are mixed well.

  4. Tilt the bowl away from you and use your hands to squeeze the vegetables, separating the juice.

  5. Transfer the squeezed vegetables to a separate bowl and add cinnamon, mixing thoroughly.

  6. After approximately 5 minutes, carefully pour out the juice from the first bowl, ensuring the bottom of the bowl is coated with starch.

  7. In a separate bowl, combine the starch with egg and flour, using a fork to mix them together.

  8. Take the starch mixture in your hands and gently knead it into the shredded vegetables.

  9. Divide the mixture into small balls, approximately 1 inch thick, and flatten them onto the prepared baking sheet.

  10. Bake the patties in the oven until they are lightly browned around the edges, which should take about 20 minutes.

  11. Flip the patties and continue baking until they become golden brown, approximately 5 more minutes.
