2022's Best Plant Based Breakfast Ideas!

I have a lot of simple ideas for plant based breakfasts that I would like to share with you today. The following dishes are fantastic, don't require much effort, and are suitable for you. They are so simple to prepare that even the busy weekdays won't be a problem. Even though I know that everyone has very varied preferences regarding the meals that help them feel their best in the morning, I'm confident that at least one of these simple plant-based breakfast ideas will spark creativity in you!

For many years, oatmeal has been a consistent part of my diet. It fulfills my hunger and makes me feel fuller than any other morning item I've tried. Oatmeal makes it one of my favorite breakfast foods in various ways. Some formats it can be purchased in include steel-cup, rolled, rapid cooking, and others. Experimenting with different preparation methods and toppings for oatmeal may keep you from being bored for a long time. Some examples are overnight oats, baked oatmeal, and oatmeal cookies for breakfast.

The bread I make with zucchini, the cake I make with carrots, the Mexican hot chocolate, and so many other creations inspire my oatmeal recipes. Check out some of the following recipes if you have a soft spot in your heart for oats but find yourself in a rut when preparing them.

Oatmeal Prepared On The Stove

Because I consider oatmeal cooked in a stovetop pot so fundamental, I have rarely provided the instructions for making it on my blog.

My standard, go-to recipe for oats cooked on the stove is.

• ½ cup quick oats
• and a tablespoon's worth of ground flaxseed
• Chia seeds, one teaspoon's worth
• Cooked in one and a half to two cups of liquid.
• Then, to that basic recipe, I typically put in a banana that has been mashed and is ripe for added sweetness, as well as other spices, depending on how I'm feeling at the time.
• I'll stir some cocoa powder into the oats if you want chocolate flavor.
• I will make pumpkin oatmeal by mixing some pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice into the porridge.
• I'll mix some shredded zucchini, raisins, and walnuts to make oatmeal that tastes like zucchini bread. Use your imagination! A mason jar containing peanut butter and jelly overnight oats and three other overnight oat tastes are visible in the background.

Overnight Oats

If cooked on a stovetop, overnight oats are soaked in milk or a combination of milk and yogurt the entire night, which is in contrast to traditional oats cooked.

Oats allowed to sit out overnight are delicious eaten cold and directly from the jar they were prepared. However, if cold oats aren't your style, you can always warm them up in the microwave for a speedy and hot breakfast option.

I've included a list of some of my favorite overnight oats recipes for you below.

• Overnight oats made with healthy cookie dough.
• Oatmeal with Vanilla Protein and Zucchini to Be Prepared Overnight
• Vegan Golden Milk Overnight Oats
• Brownie Batter Protein Overnight Oats
• Overnight Oats with Peanut Butter and Less Fat
• In addition, if you are someone who enjoys meal prepping, I have a whole page dedicated to teaching you how to create five different overnight oat dishes to accommodate your busy weekdays. This post discusses some of my favorite overnight oats tastes, such as double chocolate, mango coconut, lemon blueberry, cinnamon apple, peanut butter, and jelly.

• Oatmeal topped with a drizzle of peanut butter and ended with carrot cake.
• Oatmeal with Baking

I cannot get enough of the cake. For this reason, baked oatmeal is another breakfast dish that I adore.

Oatmeal that has been baked is delicious for a variety of reasons. Can obtain Multiple portions from a single batch. Oatmeal that has been baked is an excellent choice to create if you have a big family or if you want to prepare enough breakfast food for several days at once. In addition, it keeps well and packs easily, making it an excellent option for breakfasts or lunches that need to be taken on the move. The recipes listed below are some of my best attempts at baked oatmeal.

• Baked Oatmeal with Maple and Pecans
• Carrot Cake Baked Oatmeal That Can Be Prepared in Advance
• Baked Oatmeal Made With Vegan Brownie Batter
• Baked oatmeal with peanut butter and bananas for a healthy breakfast option
• Berry Baked Oatmeal

Smoothies

Smoothies are another type of simple morning food that may tailor to the individual's preferences. They are lovely for concealing the presence of vegetables and are easy to transport.

I nearly usually use frozen bananas as the foundation for my smoothies, but to make them more full, I put in a variety of other fruits, berries, greens, nut kinds of butter, etc. You may construct a smoothie bowl by pouring your smoothie into a bowl and then topping it with a variety of ingredients. This method is ideal for people who, like myself, like the act of chewing their meal.

Cereal

I'm sure you've heard this several times before, but I used to be obsessed with breakfast cereal. Even though I try to avoid store-bought grains because of the large number of additional additives that are often included in them, I still experience cereal cravings every once in a while. Whenever this occurs, I usually opt to have either Homemade Bran Flakes, Fruit Cereal, or one of my Homemade Granolas. Occasionally, I'll treat myself to a bowl of store-bought cereal that boasts a very concise list of components. Of course, I never forget to finish it with some sliced banana and fresh berries!

The following is a list of some of my favorite recipes for homemade granola:

• Granola with Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chunks
• Granola, Family Size, Vegan, Basic Ingredients
• The Finest Recipe for Granola Made at Home
• Chocolate Quinoa Cluster Granola

And, of course, you can't have cereal without some ice-cold soy or almond milk to go with it! When possible, I enjoy making my non-dairy milk at home. It is straightforward to do, and, depending on the type of milk you are making and the store from where you get your components, it is usually relatively inexpensive as well. I've compiled a list of my favorite homemade cow's milk alternatives that go wonderfully with breakfast cereal.

The Finest Almond Milk You Can Make at Home

• Oat milk that you make at home (it's so delicious and inexpensive!)
• Chocolate Oatmeal Milk Made at Home 
• Homemade Soy Milk
• A crunchy toast topped with almond butter and peaches that have been sautéed.

Toast

Recent years have seen a rise in the popularity of toast, and I can understand why. It is an alternative for a supper that can prepare very quickly, and you can top it with anything you choose. Toast made with avocado, peanut butter, and bananas is two of my absolute favorites to have for breakfast. You may view some other imaginative ideas for a plant-based toast right here!

When it comes to preparing the perfect dish of toast for myself, the first step is always to select bread of a high-quality. My whole wheat sandwich bread that requires no kneading is one of my favorite things to bake!

Chia seed pudding is an excellent example of a meal that can be prepared in advance, as it can prepare the night before, and then it can be ready to eat as soon as you get up in the morning. May make Chia seed pudding by combining three to four teaspoons of chia seeds with one cup of liquid in a blender or food processor. If you like a pudding on the thinner side, use three tablespoons; if you prefer a pudding on the thicker side, use four tablespoons. If you are going to be included any other ingredients, you will need to up the amount of liquid to approximately one and one-quarter cups. Here is my go-to recipe for chocolate chia seed pudding, which only requires four ingredients.

Banana Ice Cream

When my body craves something essential for breakfast, I go for banana ice cream instead of other options. Consuming a meal consisting of only one component at a time provides my digestive system with a much-needed respite from trying to break down the nutrients in various meals simultaneously. In addition to that, ice cream for breakfast?! I'll take that if you don't mind!

Instructions For Preparing Banana Ice Cream

To create banana ice cream, you need to slice some bananas and place them in the freezer for the night. First thing in the morning, throw the frozen banana slices in a blender or food processor with a high-speed setting and pulse until completely smooth.

Add cacao or cocoa powder if you want to make chocolate ice cream. If you're going to make a fruitier dessert, try adding berries.

You may top your ice cream with granola, almonds, seeds, or even extra fruit to give it a more interesting texture and make it last longer.

Breakfast muffins are made with oatmeal and served with a fork.

Baked Goods

Baked goods are excellent for you if you are someone who either does not have a lot of time in the morning or who wishes they could eat breakfast at a coffee shop every day. They are simple to prepare in advance, they keep very well, and they are excellent meals that can be quickly packed and taken with you. By creating your own at home, you have complete control over the ingredients, can produce massive amounts that will last for a while, and can pack them with nutritious fats and fiber to keep you feeling full longer. Please have a look at some of my favorite baked items to have for breakfast below!

• Breakfast Muffins with Zucchini, Carrots, and Oatmeal
• Breakfast muffins made with chocolate that are good for you
• Banana Bread made with Chickpea Flour (Vegan and Gluten-Free)
• Simple vegan lemon scones with lemon zest
• Banana Nut Muffins that are Vegan and Wholesome
• A square of oatmeal is served on a plate.
• Granola Bars, Energy Bites, and Other Snacks

Energy bites and granola bars are the ideal morning foods to bring along because of their portability. They are great for meal preparation at the beginning of the week, can be stored in the refrigerator for many days (or even weeks!), and can be easily packed up and taken with you for a quick breakfast on the move. Energy bites and granola bars are two of our favorite things to munch on between meals, and we sometimes even eat them for dessert. My favorite go-to recipe is for my Adaptable Granola Bars, which require five ingredients and are always available in our refrigerator. Either shape the dough into balls using a rolling pin or flatten it onto a sheet and cut it into bars using a cookie cutter. You may use any nut butter, sweetener, and add-ins. 

The following are some of my additional favorite recipes for granola bars and energy bites:

• Energy Bites with Lemon and Coconut
• Granola Bars with Homemade Sticky Popcorn that Are Homemade
• Granola Bars with a Chewy Center made with Almond Butter and Dates.
• Homemade Lara Bar Bites with Mint Chips and Brownies
• Peanut Butter Coconut Granola Bars
• Bite-Sized Almond Joy Brownie Bars
• Granola Bars with Oatmeal and Dates That Are Simple to Make at Home
• A stack of pancakes atop a fork

Pancakes

Until lately, in my opinion, pancakes have always been considered a treat to consume with breakfast. I've been making pancake batter in my blender and having these 2-Ingredient Oatmeal Banana Blender Pancakes for breakfast in the middle of the week. The refrigerator is a great place to store pancakes; you can quickly reheat them in a toaster oven. They are also great for freezing, so make extra whenever you have the chance! No rule says pancakes have to be served with syrup all the time. Check to try my Savory Chickpea Flour Falafel.

Pancakes if you're searching for a breakfast dish with a more savory flavor profile. The following is a list of some of my other favorite pancake recipes:

• Pancakes made with whole wheat and bananas, vegan style.
• The lightest and fluffiest pumpkin pancakes made on a sheet pan
• Pancakes made with chickpea flour and chocolate are healthy.
• Vegan Gluten Free Banana Pancakes
• Vegan Pancakes made with Whole Wheat and Lemon Yogurt.
• A stack of my delicious falafel pancakes made with chickpea flour and arranged on a platter.

Savory

Even though I've always been more of a fan of sugary breakfasts, there are days when nothing but something savory would do.

In addition, I know that many of you are seeking savory breakfast ideas based on plants, and I am here to help!

A delicious alternative to scrambled eggs, tofu scramble goes wonderfully with some crusty toast and is a terrific way to use leftover tofu. May make an excellent and satisfying vegan breakfast burrito by wrapping tofu scramble, black beans, salsa, and guacamole in a tortilla with some salsa guacamole.

Incredible as they are, the savory chickpea flour falafel pancakes that I make, served with sautéed mushrooms and chopped tomatoes, are topped with a drizzle of tahini.

Toasted avocado is a dish that never fails to impress me. I enjoy applying a thin layer of marmite below the avocado and then adding chopped tomatoes or mushrooms that have been sautéed on top of it. YUM! Even if marmite or Vegemite isn't one of your favorite spreads, you'll adore this combo.

Another mouthwatering and savory option for breakfast is an everything bagel topped with herby cream cheese. A fantastic vegan breakfast sandwich may be made by including some slices of tempeh bacon or marinated tofu between two slices of bread.

Fruit

The fruit notion of a breakfast that is based on plants is relatively easy to understand. Eating fruit is something that I frequently do whether I'm pressed for time or when I want something light and pleasant to eat. When I wake up, my body usually functions better with more fiber and protein, but every once in a while, the thought of biting into a juicy melon seems excellent.

If you don't feel like preparing anything for breakfast but still want something to eat, grab a couple of bananas, cut up some cantaloupe or watermelon, and enjoy!

I hope that all of these options for plant-based breakfasts don't leave you feeling overwhelmed, but rather that they motivate you to try something entirely plant based breakfast sometime this week!
