5 breakfast recipes for winter mornings

Winter mornings bring a lazy air with them. It gets really difficult to wake up in the morning especially when you’re curled up in a cosy blanket. Compiled from Taste magazine, here are some easy-to-cook recipes to give yourself the much-needed warmth and strength to kick off your daily duties. Eggs and coffee can get boring and might not give you the right energy boost, but these five dishes will surely do the trick. 

1.     Healthy banana French toast
Bananas are full of benefits! Include this enriching fruit in a comforting slice of your healthy french toast. While french toast typically needs heavy ingredients like cream and sugar, there’s an easy way to swap them out and still feel satisfied. Use almond milk instead of cream, add egg whites, whole grain bread and a drizzle of maple syrup. Mash bananas in your mixture for a sweet taste.

2.     Sweet potato hash
We’re here to revamp your old scrambled eggs. Fill in your pantry with sweet potatoes for the ultimate comfort this season. Dice up some sweet potatoes and cook them along with olive oil and a handful of spinach. Top with a sunny side up egg and sprinkle of salt, pepper, and chilli flakes. Yum!

3.     Carrot cake in a mug
Do not run away diet-friendly folks! While cake for breakfast might seem like a big no-no, we bring you nutrient-dense ingredients to make this treat. In a greased mug, combine 3 tablespoons of flour, 1 teaspoon maple syrup, 1/8 tablespoons of baking soda, 1 tablespoon yoghurt, 2 tablespoons of grated carrots, 1 tablespoon raisins and 1 tablespoon of milk. Just microwave the mix for three to four minutes and your diet-friendly carrot cake is ready to munch on!

4.     Pomegranate and coconut pudding
Including seasonal fruits in your breakfast brings an additional flavour to the dish. If you haven’t tapped into the superpowers of chia seeds, you’re really missing out. They have become the talk of the town with their nutrients and health benefits. They contain omegas, fibre, protein, and vitamins. Get on the bandwagon by making a thick and creamy coconut pudding with the sweet and fruity flavour of pomegranates. Add some chia seeds and dark chocolate bits to the mixture and make your morning healthy and tasty.

5.   Frittatine with mushrooms and peas
Frittatine might sound like a difficult name but it is actually an easy-peasy Italian egg dish. It requires an unusual technique where you cook your egg as part omelette and part scrambled eggs. This is mostly garnished with mushrooms and peas. This only takes a minute to achieve its light fluffy look.
