Recently, there’s been one burning question I’ve gotten from you.

“Hanna, I understand and can feel the benefits of going gluten and grain free, but what on Earth do I do when it comes to breakfast? I have no ideas, and it preferably has to be done within 3 seconds. Thanks!”

Well, I’m not sure I can help you with the 3-second rule, but I do have tons of yummy and (relatively) quick breakfast options in mind.

The key, as always, to keeping your healthy routine going, is to P R E P A R E. Prepare and be prepared for those 3 second breakfasts.

All these 11 breakfast recipes are gluten- grain-, soy- and yeast free. I’ve included the carb count for my fellow diabetic out there, so you know how much insulin to take.

Coconut Porridge

2 eggs

1 tbsp coconut flour (I use desiccated coconut, works just as well)

1 dl coconut cream (or coconut milk or almond milk)

vanilla powder

(Apparently you can make this without the eggs too, adding some coconut oil instead)

Whisk in a pot on low heat until there is a porridge like consistency.

Carbs: 6.7 grams

 

Baked Avocado

Halve an avocado and put one half per serving in an oven form. Crack an egg into where the pit was, and bake it in the oven for ca 10 minutes at 175 degrees (or until the egg is cooked).

Carbs: 9 grams

 

True GREEN Smoothie

2 fistfuls of kale, spinach, or other leafy green

1 apple

1 cucumber

0.5 tbsp coconut oil

fresh lemon juice to taste

fresh ginger, grated

Put all ingredients in a blender, blend, drink, feel amazing.

Carbs: 25 grams

 

Ham Rolls

This is a super quick one, you can even eat it on the run (although I really don’t recommend eating while on the run)

Take sandwich ham, roll a piece of cheese and some vegetable (cucumber, bell pepper, avocado) in it to make a roll.

Carbs: barely 2 grams per roll

 

Apple & Almond Butter

Slice up an apple. Spread almond butter on it. Enjoy.

Carbs: 20 grams

 

Greek Yoghurt with Homemade Muesli

You can find the muesli recipe in my recipe book you can sign up for below.

Carbs: Yoghurt 5 grams, muesli depending on what you put in it.

 

Chia Pudding

2,5 dl coconut or almond milk

0.5 dl chia seeds

1 tsp vanilla powder

A pinch of salt

This can be endlessly varied with a few berries, cinnamon, cocoa powder, some nuts (pistachios, perhaps?), some lemon juice,

Mix this in a bowl, and let it stand in the fridge over night. Ready for breakfast the day after!

Carbs: 20 grams for the whole thing, but it’s enough for about 3 or 4 servings, at least, making it 5 grams of carbohydrate per serving.

 

Energyballs

Carbs: 55 grams for all of them, so if you make it into 10 balls, it’s 5,5 grams of carbs each.

 

EGGS

Eggs have endless uses: Scrambled Eggs with smoked salmon or bacon and vegetables, Omelet, or

Bacon Egg Muffins

Line your muffin form with one or two slices of bacon. Either crack in the eggs whole or whisk them together as for scrambled. Put the muffin forms into the oven at 175 degrees until it’s all cooked (ca 10 mins)

Carbs: eggs only have trace carbs, but 13 g of protein each. Remember that if you find you need to bolus for gluconeogenesis.

 

The Grainbrain Bread

Click here to get the recipe for the awesomest GrainBrainCh bread, gluten- and grain free, of course! 

Carbs: 35 grams for the whole thing. Depending on thickness, about 2 grams per slice.

 

BPC

If you’re anyways going to chug some coffee in the morning, why not make it a Bullet Proof Coffee?

And, it’s really simple: you add coconut oil and butter to your coffee. Stir or make it frothy in a blender, however you like it, you’ll be full. I guarantee it.

Carbs: Zero, or extremely close to it.

 

I hope this helps inspire you a little for the highly coordinated morning rumble.
