Simple banana bread has never failed me once. In this wonderful breakfast bread, I will show you how to make them healthier without using oil and sugar yet not compromise any goodness.

Instead, I opt for pure maple syrup and almond butter instead of regular sweeteners. It does not only add more moisture to your bread but also makes it more delectable. Furthermore, using oat flour and quinoa flour is better for those who are gluten intolerant.

It is also a vegan treat as I substitute the eggs with ground flax seeds. The texture of these seeds mixed with water assembles the egg’s texture. And guess what, it is high in fiber and omega-3, increasing the quality and nutrition in every slice of this banana bread.

After baking it until golden, you will have a soft, fluffy, and so delicious bread loaf that is irresistible.

Banana bread is the ultimate breakfast to make at home!

Tater tot breakfast casserole is a delicate yet scrumptious food. Plus, the golden brown of melted cheese and tater tots with a bit of chopped parsley on the top is truly appealing.

If you do not have too much time in the morning, this one allows you to prepare ahead of time, but you must cover the casserole with foil and keep it in the fridge. When ready to enjoy it, take them out and bake them on the middle rack at 350 F degrees for around 35 minutes.

If you are unsure how to know your food is cooked thoroughly, use a toothpick and insert it into a muffin. If a toothpick comes out clean, it means your cute, small treats are ready to serve.

19. Shakshuka

Total time: 25 minutes

Honestly, I am not a morning person, but since I have tried this egg-based dish, I usually wake up early on the weekend to immerse myself in this goodness named Shakshuka.

This is a Middle Eastern and North African delicacy normally eaten in the morning (or for any meal of the day). Shakshuka combines tomato sauce, spices, poached eggs, and more. There are also various versions of Shakshuka made with cheese or meat.

But as a wellness-oriented eater, I keep it simple with different healthy components, such as bell pepper, spinach, basil, and herbs. In addition, you do not need an oven to make Shakshuka. A lidded pan and stovetop are more than enough to create a masterpiece on the dining table.

For the best experience, serve your Shakshuka with a couple of slices of sourdough bread!

20. Almond Flour Pancakes

Total time: 20 minutes

Pancakes are another basic idea for breakfast. But to make them more special, I prefer almond flour instead of a normal one as I expect soft and nutty pancakes. And these fluffy treats totally meet all of my demands.

Besides the flour, you will need eggs, almond milk, baking powder, and other flavorings to ensure your pancakes go out perfectly. Though they are tasty on their own, a couple of blueberries and maple syrup drizzle is an outstanding addition.

These almond flour pancakes are as tasty as the traditional version. They are also gluten-free.

Utilizing an air fryer to make meals never go out of style, especially for those who always seek something healthier. Therefore, one thing to be sure about these breakfasts cooked in an air fryer is their benefit for human health.

These scones are ideally served warm. And it looks even more stunning with a glaze over the top. But keep in mind, if you want a flaky scone, the butter must be cold, not at-room-temperature. If possible, keep all components chill in the fridge before using.

You will need the help of the oven to make this meal. But what will make you love it more as this is a one-pot meal, meaning you do not have to clean a lot of things after enjoying it.

If you prefer a Mediterranean vegetable frittata for breakfast, this tutorial will open your mind!

25. Breakfast Tortilla Wrap

Total time: 10 minutes

This breakfast tortilla wrap is another Mexican delicacy that you have to try because it only requires a few ingredients. Plus, even if you are new to cooking, you can still nail it in no time.

Let’s begin with slitting a big burrito-style tortilla into quarters. Then make scrambled eggs and transfer them to the tortilla right after cooking. Spread other components like mashed avocado, salsa, and cheese on the remaining three quarters.

The final step of the prep part is to fold these quarters over others until a triangle appears. After that, throw it on the skillet and cook it for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until the edges are crunchy

These foods can freeze well, so if you want to enjoy them later, wrap them tightly and store your bagels in an airtight container in the freezer.

27. Gluten-Free Belgian Waffles

Total time: 17 minutes

Similar to pancakes, light and airy waffles is a classic idea for a speedy breakfast. But first, make sure that you have a waffle maker at home.

With some basic baking ingredients, all you need to do is mix them until well combined and pour the mixture into the maker.

I know many of you would like to make them in a big batch with many fluffy waffles. So if you wonder how to keep them warm, just place your foods in the oven and set a low setting (at 200 F degrees). And please note that you should not stack them on the plate as it will reduce the crispiness.

28. Kimchi Egg Skillet

Total time: 25 minutes

Kimchi is a signature Korean food. So if you want to make your egg-based breakfast with the Korean vibe, the kimchi egg skillet is a must-try one.

The appearance of oyster mushrooms makes them more “Asian”. Altogether, this meal delivers a full-of-flavor breakfast with spicy kimchi, creamy eggs, and earthy mushrooms.

Plus, the sauce mixture made from lemon juice, chili garlic sauce, tamari, and mayonnaise is a great drizzle to go with the treat.

29. Instant Pot Breakfast Tacos

Total time: 20 minutes

Stovetop, oven, crockpot, what other cookware can you use for cooking meals? Do not overlook the convenience that an instant pot can offer. Therefore, this breakfast dish cooked in an instant pot is one of the best solutions for busy cooks.

Breakfast tacos with the fillings cooked in this device are truly a life saver as all you have to do is prep the ingredients and mix them in an instant pot. Keep in mind to seal the vent and select an “egg” setting to cook the mixture on high pressure.

After 15 minutes, let the steam inside the cookware release for 5 minutes before opening the lid. This step will make sure you can prevent unexpected burns. And the final part is to assemble the egg mixture on the tacos with shredded cheese, green onion, and lime juice.

Total time: Around 4 hours 40 minutes

What dish do you usually make in a slow cooker? My favorite is this super easy crockpot breakfast called bread pudding. It is not only an amazing breakfast but also a sweet dessert that everyone would ask for more.

Things you need to have to make this pudding might already stay in your cabinet. They are white bread loaf, eggs, milk, cinnamon, and some minor components to make them more flavorful.

The prep is straightforward, too, as you only need to cut your bread into small cubes, mix them with other ingredients and toss them in a crockpot. Extremely easy, isn’t it?

32. Changua (Colombian Milk and Egg Soup)

Total time: 20 minutes

Morning meal with soup, why not? This is a special delicacy deriving from Bogota – the capital of Colombia. It typically comprises milk, eggs, scallions, and water. Therefore, its texture is very milky with a savory hint.

Although Changua is mostly served as a hearty breakfast, it is also a late-night dish as many people consume it as a good way to treat hangovers.

You can poach the eggs or cook them a bit longer for firmer yolk. It also depends on your preference as it does not affect the soup’s deliciousness. Finally, enjoy it with some toasted bread slices for a fulfilling meal.

33. Vietnamese Meatball Banh Mi (Banh Mi Xiu Mai)

Total time: 30 minutes

When it comes to a simple breakfast in Vietnam, bánh mì (bread in English) and its pairings always make me salivate. If you love meatballs, this recipe will definitely become your go-to morning food.

Do not assume it might taste like Italian-style meatballs! These are made from ground pork seasoned with simple flavorings like salt and pepper with minced garlic and onion. The sauce paired with it is tomato-based, but it tastes nothing like Italian spaghetti sauce.

Why? Because it is seasoned with soy sauce and fish sauce – the 2 iconic Asian sauces that you might easily buy in Asian markets. You can add cornstarch mixture to make the sauce thickener.

34. Hash Brown and Sausage Breakfast Casserole

Total time: 55 minutes

What should you do to prepare a healthy whole30 breakfast dish? Let me show you the hashbrown and sausage casserole, and I am pretty sure its richness and creaminess will enchant you for the first bite.

You can serve it for dinner as well. No need to use any dairy product. That’s why this casserole is also healthier without reducing its quality. In this case, I choose cashew cream (or coconut milk/cream) to make them creamier.

It is acceptable to use frozen hash browns. But ensure you will thaw them before making this delight.

35. Cinnamon Apple Quinoa Breakfast

Total time: 30 minutes

They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away, so including this fruit in your morning delight is never a bad option.

Total time: Around 53 minutes

The delicious muffins with oatmeal, chocolate chips, and pumpkin is another great grab-and-go breakfast (or snack). So whenever the fall is coming, do not miss a chance to try this pumpkin morning treat.

These bite-sized meals are easy to throw together because the only prep is to stir all components to create the batter. Then pour the mixture into the muffin tin and bake them.

However, do not enjoy it right after you take them out of the oven. Let your muffin rest for 20 minutes, as removing the food from the tin would be much safer. Moreover, muffins are prone to breaking when they are still hot.

37. Congee (Chinese Rice Porridge)

Total time: 1 hour 20 minutes

The list of breakfast recipes in China is very long. But in case you are looking for something that can help you recover from the sickness quicker, nothing is better than a hot bowl of white congee, also known as rice porridge.

It is not a fancy dish, but it contains various flavors from chopped veggies, pickled ginger, garlic, eggs, and peanuts. On the other hand, you can choose your favorite topping to add.

Similar to the above porridge, cooking the rice takes a certain time. But it could be easier for you if your rice cooker has the “porridge” setting. If you have leftover white rice, you can also use it to make porridge to save more time.

Your stomach is not happy today? Well, this Chinese-style congee can fix it.

38. Ham and Cheese Puff Pastry

Total time: 35 minutes

You have too many leftover hams, but you do not know what to do with them? Let me help you with this yummy breakfast made with puff pastry. And no one can recognize that you use the leftovers.

These buttery and flaky pastries look like those you usually see in bakeries, which means they are delicious and beautiful. And there is nothing better than making them yourself.

Of course, it is not a difficult recipe, as long as you gather enough ingredients. But please kindly remember that your puff pastry must not be frozen when making this meal. And use a sharp knife to cut it into nice-looking pieces (around 5×5 inches).

A light layer of beaten egg on the top is highly recommended to increase the golden hue after baking.

39. Breakfast Charcuterie Board

Total time: 20 minutes

Here is an excellent idea for breakfast at the potluck as you can share it easier with everyone. Charcuterie board is a fun treat including various types of foods, such as fruits, veggies, cheese, cured meat, etc.

In this recipe, the appearance of mini pancakes, croissants, eggs, and granola makes the board look more wonderful. You do not have to make croissants and pancakes from scratch. Go for the frozen ones and reheat them in the oven for more convenience.

Total time: 10 minutes

Serving drinks for breakfast, like smoothies, is another quick way to fuel your body. Many people choose to wake up with the nice scent of coffee, but here is a twist that can upgrade your normal cup of coffee to a new level.

This is the banana coffee smoothie. You can already guess the main ingredients from its name, right? There is more than this. Cacao powder, vanilla extract, and milk are other things you need to add to this smoothie so they can come out creamy and refreshing.

Plus, please use frozen bananas to make it more enjoyable. If you forget to freeze it the night before, you can add some ice cubes to your blender. But the machine must be strong enough to puree ice.

41. Jok Moo (Thai Porridge With Pork Meatballs)

Total time: 1 hour 10 minutes

Jok Moo is a no-fuss breakfast in Thailand, and it has spread its popularity worldwide, thanks to its delicate flavor with easy directions.

It is basically rice porridge with pork meatballs. When it comes to porridge, the first thing that pops up in your mind must be its comforting, right? As Jok Moo always tastes best when served hot, this porridge is an outstanding meal to enjoy on chilly days.

It might take more than 1 hour to complete making it. Particularly, cooking the rice tender enough to collapse is the most time-consuming part. In contrast, making the meatball is foolproof as you just need to combine ingredients and shape them into ball-sized forms.

42. Pain Au Chocolat (French Chocolate Croissants)

Total time: 30 minutes

If you need a French meal for the morning that fits your tight budget, I do not think there is any better solution like this easy Pain Au Chocolat (aka French chocolate croissants). With only 3 components, such as puff pastry, chocolate chips, and milk/oil/aquafaba, to brush on the surface.

Another good thing about these croissants is their simplicity in prepping. Do not forget to thaw the frozen puff pastry first. Once the puff pastry is ready, spread it on the floured work surface to limit the stickiness. You should cut it into 4 (for big croissants) or 8 parts (for smaller ones).

After rolling them, you need to brush the tops with the liquid ingredient I mentioned above. Finally, bake your croissants for around 20 minutes until these rolls turn a golden brown. Flaky, sweet, and melt-in-your-mouth, please do not feel guilty about enjoying a lot of them.

A beautiful work to create Pain Au Chocolat is waiting for you to explore.

43. Tortang Giniling (Filipino Beef Omelette)

Total time: 40 minutes

Let’s find out what a true Filipino breakfast looks like with this recipe called Tortang Giniling. For more information, the word “torta” refers to various dishes, but mostly flat cakes. And the term “giniling” is “ground meat” in Tagalog.

In this case, this is an omelette dish mixed with ground beef and vegetables that you can enjoy as breakfast, lunch, or even a snack. In the Philippines, many locals serve it with fried rice and banana ketchup for the most fulfilling meal.

In general, this omelette idea is soft and flavorful, with different textures in one bite. However, since they contain different ingredients, it might be hard for you to flip them if you use a large pan. So I recommend making them into pancake-sized ones (around 3-inch diameter) for easier flipping.

44. Rava Idli (Steamed Semolina Cake)

Total time: About 10 minutes

Indian cuisine is famous for its burst-in-flavor dishes, and so is its breakfast. Among many Indian breakfast options, I choose Rava Idli to introduce as it only takes around 10 minutes to make them.

They are steamed semolina cakes that are especially prominent in South India. They comprise chopped curry leaves, yogurt, baking soda, and obviously, semolina flour. In this country, people usually eat these savory cakes for breakfast with coconut chutney.

This one is also acceptable to make in advance, but you have to store the batter in the fridge. And you will need a mold to pour the mixture on it.

There are 2 ways to steam it: on a stovetop or in a microwave. Different kitchenware will have different cooking times, so please carefully check your cake’s texture. Perfect Rava Idli should be soft and fluffy.

45. Tamagoyaki (Japanese Sweet Rolled Omelette)

Total time: 30 minutes

Tamagoyaki is a Japanese dish for the morning made from eggs, sweet dashi (Japanese soup stock), and oil. So technically, it is a kind of omelette in rolled form. And it has a sophisticated look that might require some practice.

But trust me, once you nailed it, you would want to make it over and over again. However, the ideal pan to make Tamagoyaki is a square or rectangular one so they can be formed properly. Therefore, using your regular round pan might result in a not-good-looking rolled omelette.

Other tools to prepare are a sushi mat (for the final touch) and long chopsticks. Overall, Tamagoyaki is a recipe that can help you upgrade your cooking skill and have a closer look at the sophistication of Japanese cuisine.

46. Healthy Yogurt Bowls

Total time: 5 minutes

This 5-minute breakfast can offer various types of proteins, healthy fats, carbs, and nutrients with only 4 components such as Greek yogurt, berries, sliced almonds, and low-sugar granola. And I do not think that this delight can trouble you.

To make it healthier, please carefully check the sugar level in your yogurts. If possible, go for an unsweetened one. And please skip sweetened toppings like dried fruits, coconut, etc. Instead, you can choose chia seeds, flaxseeds, or hemp hearts to increase the benefit of your yogurt bowl.

47. French Brioche Loaf

Total time: 2 hours 20 minutes (including 1.5 hours proofing time)

Brioche is a well-loved French bread due to its buttery flavor in light and fluffy texture. You can find them in many supermarkets, but it would be more entertaining to make them at home.

It requires some basic baking components, but you need to spend more than 1 hour letting the dough rise. Thus, I highly recommend making them in your leisure time.

Brioche is also ideal for making ahead of time (2 days in advance is better). You can place the dough in the fridge. As it sits longer in the machine, its flavor is stronger.

And the final step is baking it until your bread puffs up. It is already good to enjoy on its own, but your breakfast will be better if you serve your brioche slices with butter, jam, or Nutella. You can pair it with other savory foods like cooked eggs.

48. Irish Potato Farls

Total time: 40 minutes

Here is an authentic Irish morning delight that you should try once in your life. Irish potato farl (aka potato cakes, potato fadge) is a classic breakfast that many locals love to enjoy on St Patrick’s Day. But feel free to make it on any day of the year.

Plus, this recipe offers you the best way to use up leftover potatoes. It is also a humble recipe that everyone can make, even beginners. With only a few ingredients and simple directions, you can yield several golden brown, fluffy cakes in triangle shapes.

Keep in mind the ratio of flour to potatoes is very important as it decides the texture of your farls. For choosing the right potato varieties, the best ones for this recipe are Russets, Maris Piper, or Roosters.

49. Sheepherder’s Breakfast

Total time: 30 minutes

Sheepherder’s breakfast is a simple one-skillet meal including eggs, onion, hash brown, and chopped bacon. You do not need to use too much effort to make it. With 3 easy steps, you will have a completely beautiful and yummy treat for a morning meal.

When it comes to bacon, it always starts with cooking it with onion to make the bacon crispier and drain the excess grease. Next, you will cook hash browns until golden brown (about 10 minutes), then add egg and cook for another 10-minute.

Once the white part of the egg starts to set, let’s finish it with some cheese and let it melt before you turn off the heat. And voila, your hearty Sheepherder’s breakfast is good to go.

Grab your skillet, and let’s make a sheepherder’s breakfast today!

50. Kale Ginger Green Smoothie

Total time: 17 minutes

A cup of fresh smoothie to start a day is what you need for a busy day. What’s better, it is packed with a lot of nutrients to boost your health excellently.

What you need are some green veggies, pineapple, dairy products, and protein powder. Regarding vegetables, I choose kale and celery. These two are an ideal combo in many nutrient-dense smoothies to prevent many health problems.

Moreover, ginger will enhance the overall flavor and warms your stomach. For a less-work recipe, I also opt for store-bought frozen pineapple chunks to make this drink. But if you have a fresh one, please freeze them overnight in advance.

51. Avocado Toast With Egg

Total time: 10 minutes

No matter how busy you are, you should always have a nutritious breakfast before going to work or study to keep you stay energized throughout the morning. Thanks to its simplicity, these avocado toasts with egg is a flawless idea in this circumstance.

Actually, it is a customizable recipe as you can serve your toast with different toppings, including scrambled, fried, poached, or boiled eggs. It is all up to you! But regardless of what type of cooked eggs you choose, do not miss spreading a thin layer of mashed avocado on the toast.

You do not need to use a bowl to mash this fruit. Instead, doing it right on the bread is preferable to reduce the cleaning task afterward.

52. Biscuits And Gravy Without Sausage

Total time: 40 minutes

The last recipe is for those who love to have biscuits for breakfast. These small-bite foods are so tender that goes perfectly with the thick gravy.

Homemade biscuits are not as hard as you think because you simply throw all biscuit ingredients together to create a dough. You might knead it a little before cutting them into round, smaller biscuits. If the dough is too wet, you should sprinkle more flour for easier kneading.

While waiting for the biscuits to be baked, you can prepare creamy gravy with some simple steps. Make sure you simmer it over medium-low heat to prevent burnt bottom.
