Breakfast recipes

These breakfast recipes combine protein, complex carbs and healthy fats – from overnight oats and porridge to eggs and protein pancakes. Sweet or savoury, quick or make-ahead.

A good breakfast combines protein (eggs, quark, skyr), complex carbs (porridge oats, wholegrain bread) and healthy fats (nuts, avocado). That's exactly how our breakfast recipes are put together – sweet or savoury, quick or ready to prep the night before.

Frequently asked questions

Should I eat breakfast or try intermittent fasting?

Both work – it depends on your daily rhythm. If you train early, you'll often want a breakfast with plenty of protein; others prefer to eat later. Intermittent fasting (16:8) suits a regular daily routine.

What's a healthy breakfast?

At least 20 g of protein plus fibre and healthy fats. For example: skyr with berries and nuts, scrambled eggs with avocado on wholegrain toast, or overnight oats with chia and protein powder.

Sweet or savoury breakfast?

Both work. Savoury usually means more protein; our sweet recipes use fruit, dates, honey or maple syrup instead of sugar and include protein or fat.
