Pancakes

We can make gluten free pancakes in every possible flavor and texture. From the classic stack to 4 ingredient banana pancakes and everything in between!

Waffles

A good waffles recipe does double duty: as a fancy brunch recipe, and as a make-ahead breakfast for busy weekday mornings. Bet you didn't know how well they freeze!

Special Dishes With Eggs

A special quiche or a hearty breakfast casserole can turn an ordinary breakfast into something worth celebrating. Brunch is served!

Two Types of Breakfast Recipes

Grab & Go

First, you need grab-and-go breakfast ideas and recipes to make them, like oatmeal breakfast cookies and gluten free cereal bars or gluten free granola bars. Weekday mornings are hectic, and despite my best-laid plans, I'm not getting up 30 minutes early to make eggs for the troops.

Brunch

Second, you need fancy-looking (but still easy!) recipes for a leisurely breakfast or brunch on a weekend or just for a special occasion. Who doesn't love a gluten free breakfast casserole, a special pancake, gluten free waffles and a big, bakery-style gluten free blueberry muffin with a big cup of coffee?

Expert Tips To Make Breakfast Easier

Batch cook and freeze

This is my absolute number one tip for making sure you've always got a gluten free breakfast ready to go. With a well-stocked freezer, breakfast is easy. Even if you suddenly find yourself feeding half of your extended family.

Aside from gluten free quiche, you can make many of these recipes ahead of time and freeze them, ready to thaw or reheat whenever you need them.

Make dry mixes for pancakes, etc.

Another really simple but so effective tip for making gluten free breakfast is to make up all your dry mixes ahead of time. For example, make up a big batch of gluten free pancake mix or gluten free muffin dry ingredient mix, and store the dry ingredients mixes in glass jars.

Then, when you need to make a gluten free breakfast on the fly, half of the measuring is done for you. All you need to do is scoop out the right amount of dry mix and add your wet ingredients.


Make a healthy breakfast with a few simple GF substitutes

If you're trying to avoid refined sugars but still like some sweetness in your life, switch out processed sugars and refined syrups for date sugar, coconut sugar, maple syrup, or honey. Maple syrup adds a beautiful touch of sweetness without being overwhelmingly sweet.

Consider switching from fried eggs to baked eggs to cut down on fat intake. Add a spoonful of chia seeds to your oatmeal, gluten free overnight oats, or gluten free corn muffins for a boost of healthy fats, fiber, and nutrients.

A gluten free breakfast option isn't automatically healthier. A lot of the store-bought cereals and breakfast products are full of sugar, fillers, and chemical flavorings and preservatives that we just don't need or want.

But making your own gluten free breakfast recipes puts you back in control of what you're eating and lets you choose when to go for healthy ingredients and a nourishing breakfast.
