You don't need elaborate spreads to kickstart your day with nourishing, flavorful meals. These three simple breakfasts rely on just three ingredients each—staples you likely have on hand in your kitchen.
Baked Avocado Egg Halves
You'll need: a large avocado, one egg, and a topping of your choice (like smoked salmon or chopped spring onions). Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop out a bit more space in each half. Crack the egg into one half, add your topping, and bake at 220°C (425°F) for 15 minutes until the egg is set. This low-carb powerhouse delivers healthy fats and protein to keep you satisfied.
Egg and Bacon Muffins
Grease a muffin tin with butter or oil. Line the cups with bacon slices. Whisk eggs in a bowl, season to taste, and stir in grated cheese if desired. Pour into the tin, top with more cheese, and bake at 180°C (350°F) for about 20 minutes. For variety, swap bacon for diced chicken breast or skip it for a vegetarian version.
Banana Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies
Combine 170g rolled oats, three overripe bananas, and 100g peanut butter. Fold in chocolate chips for extra indulgence (optional but recommended). Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). With wet hands, form 8 dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and flatten into cookies. Bake 10-12 minutes, then cool for 10 minutes before enjoying these naturally sweet, energy-boosting treats.
