Rich and savory autumn pancakes made with carrots, apples, and orange zest, seasoned with warming spices and spiced ghee.
This week marks the first week of autumn here in the United States, and this morning, I woke up in the mood for something to celebrate the season.
I love the changing of seasons. I think there is something magical about living in a world that rotates and cycles. Everything is constantly changing, but every year, we have fall. Over and over and over.
