Preparation

In a pot we put the chancaca, the orange peel and the water (over low heat until it reaches point). the honey should have a thick, dark consistency.

Mix the pumpkin puree and milk in a blender (add little by little). then add the flour and the cornstarch without stopping beating at this time, add the yeast (previously dissolved in the pumpkin water, prepared with sugar). After forming a uniform dough, we place the preparation in a container (it must be in the oven for a minute); When we turn off the oven, do not remove the dough (wait a moment until it is full).
Finally, in a frying pan (with enough oil or butter) we fry the preparation (make a thread shape, using your hand or a stick).
We serve the hot picarones, bathed with the chancaca honey
