2 1/2 cups shelled sunflower seeds ( fresh or dried)
3 cups water
6 tablespoons fine cornmeal
3 tablespoons maple syrup
1/2 cup oil

Simmer the seeds in the water, covered, for 1 hour. Drain & grind the seeds when done. Mix the syrup & cornmeal, 1 tablespoon at a time, into the ground seeds, making a stiff dough. Shape into 3 inch flat cakes, about 15 cakes. Fry the cakes in hot oil on both sides. Drain on paper towels & serve hot.
