Transitioning to a vegan diet is challenging. Even if you’ve been vegan for a long time, sticking to a strict routine may be starting to bore you. Changing up the meals you eat and adding some variety to your diet is crucial.
Sometimes our activities call for a quick breakfast. From paying bills, choosing plates from The Private Plate Company, bettering yourself, and dealing with work duties, your schedule might have you skipping breakfast.
Being vegan is becoming more common, with many bloggers sharing their recipes and experiences. Your meals shouldn’t have to be plain. Below you will find quick and easy breakfast recipes to fit in your life.
1) Overnight Oats
Ingredients:
- ½ cup of oats (e.g., quick, steel-cut, rolled, etc.)
- 1 medium banana
- ½ cup dairy-free milk (e.g., almond, oat, soy, rice, cashew milk, etc.)
- ¾ tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
Directions:
To prepare, add all of the ingredients to a bowl and make sure that the oats are immersed in the milk. Cover the bowl and leave it in the refrigerator overnight. When you wake up, your breakfast will be ready.
2) Pancakes
Ingredients:
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 large ripe banana
- 1 ¼ all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¾ cup dairy-free milk (e.g., almond, oat, soy, rice, cashew milk, etc.)
Instructions:
In a mixing bowl, add the flour, salt, baking powder, sugar, and cinnamon. Mix well, and in another bowl, mash up a banana and add coconut oil. Then, include the vanilla extract and milk into the mixing bowl and mix until the batter is thick.
Get yourself a pan and heat it with an oil of your choice. Pour some batter as desired and wait until bubbles appear on top and the sides are a little dry. Flip it over and wait; repeat the process.
Finally, serve your pancakes on a plate. Top with your favorite fruits like banana, strawberries, and blueberries. For a touch of sweetness, top your pancakes with maple syrup.
