🥛MilkSwaps and substitutions
For a dairy-free version, swap the garlic herb butter for olive oil or a plant-based butter with garlic seasoning. For a tree-nut-free option, replace the pecans with toasted pumpkin or sunflower seeds; for lower sugar, use less sweetness on the topping.
What to serve with it
Serve these as a crisp side with roast chicken, grilled salmon, or a simple steak for a fresh sweet-savory contrast. They also work well alongside mashed potatoes, rice, or a grain bowl to round out a lighter dinner.
