Smoothies
Smoothies are a fantastic option for busy mornings because they require minimal ingredients and preparation. Whether you are craving a fruity blend, a creamy protein-packed concoction, or a veggie-loaded green smoothie, I've got you covered!
Tip: If you want to prep ahead, gather your ingredients, divide into individual freezer bags, label and freeze!
Flavored Yogurt
With the combination of convenience, delightful flavors, and nutritional benefits, flavored yogurts make an excellent choice for a satisfying morning meal.
And rather than relying on store-bought varieties loaded with added sugars, create your own homemade flavored yogurts to take control of the ingredients and tailor them to your preferences.
You can easily personalize your yogurt creations by topping with fresh fruit, cereal, no added sugar granola, nuts, etc. I love to fill up a snack tray with an assortment of toppings for my kids to choose from.
Sometimes they make the most beautiful yogurt bowls and other times they eat just the yogurt or the toppings, but either way it helps them exert their independence and makes mealtimes more fun and engaging.
Overnight Oats
As a busy mom of 2 littles who wake up hangry, I don't know what I'd do without overnight oats! Simply mix the ingredients, let it sit in the fridge overnight, and wake up to a ready-to-eat meal!
The true beauty lies in their simplicity and versatility. You can personalize them to suit your taste preferences and dietary needs.
Prepare a batch, store individual portions, and enjoy throughout the week with whatever toppings you are in the mood for!
Overnight Weetabix
This simple breakfast is similar to overnight oats, but instead of oats you will need Weetabix. Additionally, rather than stirring everything together, you are going to layer the ingredients, which is super easy to do!
Chia Puddings
Chia puddings are an excellent egg-free breakfast option for the whole family, offering a perfect blend of nutrition, versatility, and convenience.
Packed with fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential nutrients, chia seeds create a creamy and satisfying pudding-like texture when combined with liquid.
Customizable with a variety of flavors and toppings, chia puddings are the perfect make ahead breakfast for kids and adults.
Eggless Pancakes
I, too, was skeptical at first, but it turns out you CAN make perfectly fluffy and tender pancakes without eggs!
Plus this basic eggless pancake recipe is highly customizable! You can stir in all kinds of add-ins like fresh fruit, nuts, chocolate chips, and even vegetables for a savory twist.
Stovetop Oatmeal
Oatmeal is the breakfast superstar with endless possibilities for personalization - whether you're craving something sweet or savory, theres a delicious way to make it uniquely yours!
Here are my family's go-tos
Baked Oatmeal
While eggs are commonly used in traditional baked oatmeal recipes, there are many egg-free alternatives available, like mashed bananas, unsweetened applesauce, and chia or flaxseeds.
With its soft and chewy texture, baked oatmeal provides a comforting experience reminiscent of freshly baked goods! Plus, it can be prepared in advance and reheated, making it an excellent option for busy mornings.
Whether you enjoy it plain or top it with yogurt, fresh fruit, maple syrup, etc., baked oatmeal is a delightful and nutritious way to fuel your morning without the need for eggs.
Tofu Scramble
While tofu scramble may not taste like scrambled eggs, the crumbled and seasoned tofu creates a light and fluffy texture that is absolutely delicious.
Tofu absorbs flavors exceptionally well so have fun experimenting with different herbs, spices, and vegetables.
This is a high protein, filling, and nutritious breakfast option for the whole family.
Banana Roll Ups
Simply set up a station with the tortilla, banana, peanut butter (or any nut or seed butter), and various toppings (e.g. grated carrots, zucchini, hemp seeds, shredded coconut, crushed freeze-dried fruit, etc.). Next, invite your child to make their own tortilla roll up!
Toast
From sweet to savory, simple to extravagant, there's no limit to the creativity and deliciousness you can achieve with toast!
Although my kids are perfectly happy with peanut butter and strawberry jam toast all day every day :).
Breakfast Cookies
Cookies for breakfast? Sign me up! These egg-free cookies are made with wholesome ingredients like oats, nuts, seeds, and natural sweeteners, providing a balanced mix of carbohydrates, healthy fats, fiber, and protein to kick off the day.
To make a well-rounded meal, serve the breakfast cookies alongside yogurt, milk, fresh fruits, vegetables, or spread some peanut butter, nut butter, or sunflower seed butter if there is a nut allergy.
Eggless Muffins
Muffins are such a great way to pack in a lot of nutrition into an easy-to-eat, portable form. And if you thought moist and tender muffins are not achievable without eggs, these recipes are going to wow you in the best way possible!
