Vegan Breakfast Recipes Worth Waking Up For

Looks delicious, right? PIN this recipe round up for later.

Need some delicious vegan breakfast recipes? Look no further, my friend, I’ve got you. Vegan breakfasts can be delicious, filling, nutritious, and exciting, even without animal products. Sweet and savory, these 16 vegan breakfasts are worth getting out of bed for. 

One of my top requested topics is vegan breakfast. We all need ideas for that first meal of the day. If you are like me, you get sick of eating the same breakfast every morning––I’m looking at you, oatmeal. Some days I’m in the mood for a savory breakfast, sometimes sweet. But always delicious! 

What makes a healthy vegan breakfast

I will admit that some of the recipes in this roundup are not what I would consider healthy. But the majority of these delicious recipes are nutritious and wonderful for breaking the fast. To be considered healthy, in my opinion, a breakfast should meet the following criteria:

• Made with whole foods like vegetables, fruit, whole grains, and unrefined sweeteners. 
• Not be laden with refined fat like vegan butter
• Have a good amount of fiber, protein, and healthy wholesome fats to keep you feeling nourished for longer

My favorite everyday vegan breakfast recipes

As I already mentioned, I get really sick of eating oatmeal everyday. Oatmeal is awesome and delicious, but so are a lot of other meals. Remember, breakfast doesn’t have to be sweet, and you can eat anything––even salad, soup, or leftovers from dinner. Here are my favorite healthy vegan breakfast recipes:

• Best-Ever Tofu Scramble
• Mushroom Avocado Toast
• Almond Flour Pancakes
• Teff Porridge (Instant Pot recipe)
• Freekeh & Quinoa Porridge
