With little time to prepare, or with picky eaters, the most important meal of the day can also be the most challenging. Start your morning off right with these delicious and easy recipes!
Animal-Themed
If you’re dealing with a picky eater, take note: few foods catch a kid’s attention more than those with a face. Animal-themed breakfasts, like these bagel bunnies, are easy to make and entertaining to eat. All you need are bagels, cream cheese, and a few fruits! For a different twist, try this teddy bear toast. After your bread is golden brown, just add peanut butter, bananas, and blueberries. Your kids will start their day with a smile as they enjoy their creative breakfasts.
Effortless Dishes
If your mornings are too crazy to cook an elaborate first meal, you can make breakfast the night before. For example, try this overnight french toast casserole. Just put all the ingredients together the night before, and pop it in the oven when you wake up! It will cook while you get the kids ready, and in 30 minutes you have a pan of delicious French toast ready to serve. Or, if you prefer cold breakfast, you can make overnight oats. Simply refrigerate oats, chia seed, milk, and yogurt in a jar overnight. Then, top with fruit and nuts in the morning for a quick and delicious breakfast on-the-go!
“Free” Foods
If your child has food allergies that limit their breakfast options, try these gluten, dairy, and egg-free pancakes. They are simple to make and incredibly fluffy. Just use gluten-free flour and a dairy substitute for milk, such as coconut or almond. Or, try your hand at these gluten-free apple oat muffins. They are a bit more involved, so make sure you have plenty of time! But with a combination of oatmeal, apple bits, and walnuts, they are hard to beat.
Make breakfast a fun and delicious time for all with these recipes!
