Make-Ahead Breakfast Ideas

Delicious and nutritious make-ahead breakfast recipes to simplify your morning routine.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 2 cups milk or yogurt
  • 2 cups assorted fruits (bananas, berries)
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 slices bread (for sandwiches)
  • 1 cup chopped vegetables (spinach, bell peppers)
  • 1 cup shredded cheese
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 cups flour (for muffins)
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Combine rolled oats with your choice of milk or yogurt. Add your favorite fruits and drizzle with honey or maple syrup. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, eggs, and baking powder until smooth. Mix in optional add-ins like nuts or chocolate chips. Pour the mixture into a muffin tin and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  3. Whisk together eggs and milk in a bowl. Stir in chopped vegetables and shredded cheese. Pour the mixture into a greased baking dish and bake until set in the center.
  4. Scramble eggs with chopped vegetables and cheese in a skillet over medium heat until cooked through. Place the mixture between two slices of bread and grill until golden and crispy on both sides.

Notes

Store leftovers in airtight containers in the refrigerator. Overnight oats can last up to five days, muffins stay fresh for about a week, and breakfast casseroles reheat beautifully for up to three days.
