Parathas (Indian flat breads) are a must in North India, where the cold season is rather extreme.
Although parathas can be made with different fillings, the chana dal flat bread, made from cooked chana dal, flour and spice powders like garam masala and amchur is a winter favorite.
Top it up with some ghee to keep you warm throughout the day.

Luchi, also known as puri, is a deep-fat fried bread made from unleavened flour.
Teaming it up with dry aloo torkari, which is basically dry and crunchy potato curry, is a fantastic breakfast.
A dish which is loved by Bengalis (including me), this can brighten up anyone's morning.
Also since it is served hot, it becomes a great breakfast during winter.

Buttermilk pancakes are, in general, a healthy breakfast. Making it with gingerbread brings warm elements like ginger, cloves, honey, etc. to your diet, which can be useful during winter.
Instead of breaking an egg for this pancake, use a vegan egg- flax meal and water- and add some protein powder to the mix.
When served hot, they will bring coziness to your morning.

For a rich flavor, top it up with fruits like blueberries, pomegranates and other toasted nuts and seeds.
A superfood with many benefits, quinoa works together with the other mentioned ingredients to energize your body.
