Pumpkin pancakes are the perfect easy, seasonal fall breakfast
南瓜饼是完美的简易秋季早餐
“During the fall months, these are a favorite with the kids because they smell and taste like pumpkin pie. I often substitute pumpkin in recipes that call for butternut squash,” Fox wrote in her book, “Spice Kitchen: Healthy Latin and Caribbean Cuisine.” “It bakes the same as butternut, giving a very similar flavor profile but with fewer carbs and more fiber. It’s a win-win. Topping these pancakes with maple syrup is great, but try them with some coconut cream and a dust of cinnamon too.”
“在秋季,这些是孩子们的最爱,因为它们闻起来和吃起来像南瓜派。福克斯在她的书《香料厨房:健康的拉丁和加勒比菜》中写道:“在需要冬南瓜的食谱中,我经常用南瓜替代。”“南瓜烤起来和白胡桃一样,味道非常相似,但碳水化合物更少,纤维更多。这是一个双赢。在这些煎饼上加枫糖浆很棒,但也可以试试加一些椰子奶油和肉桂粉。”
