Breakfast

Pancakes made with bananas and almond butter? Enough said. Four eggs may seem like a lot, but they’re what give these sweet, nutty pancakes a light, crepe-like texture.

It’s a wrap griddled in sausage fat until the outside is crispy and warm. Need we say more?

When in doubt, frittata. This version turns greens-and-beans into a complete one-skillet supper.

Many gravlax recipes will instruct you to drain, turn, and babysit the fish while it cures. Not this one: Set it and forget it. Three days later it will be done.

Ever wish you could master restaurant-style egg toasts? Well now you can with this salty, smoky, creamy combo. Crème fraîche is the secret ingredient for a custardy scramble, and high-quality smoked fish and good bread are worth the splurge—they make all the difference here.

Who says oatmeal needs to be sweet? Prepare the oats as you traditionally would, but instead of adding berries and sweeteners, toss in greens and kimchi, then top with an egg, hemp seeds, and avocado.

Serve this easy-to-make “toast” just as you would traditional toast and top it with your favorite toppings, such as avocado, a poached or fried egg, microgreens, tahini, fresh berries, hemp seeds, a nut butter, bananas, or strawberries.

Butternut squash is one of my all-time favorite ingredients. It has a beautiful orange color, is very filling, is great for heart health, and perhaps best of all, it’s great for healthy skin and eyes. An ingredient that’s beautiful and makes you beautiful? Yes, please!

How do you get anyone (really, anyone) to eat kale and mushrooms? Layer them with toasted bread cubes and cover with Gruyère and Parmesan.

A swirl of cinnamon-spiced pear compote runs through these protein-rich pancakes.

For mornings when you need to feed a crowd a healthy breakfast, this veggie-packed egg skillet is here for you. Serve with toast on the side for mopping up those runny yolks.
