From sunny-side up to hard-boiled, eggs are so synonymous with breakfast that it can be hard to think of the morning meal without them. But there are plenty of breakfast recipes we all know and love that are naturally egg-free, like overnight oats, smoothies, and flaky biscuits. And there are other recipes that rely on protein-rich ingredients, like tofu or quinoa, for a satisfying alternative to eggs.
Whether you're looking for easy egg-free breakfast recipes that can be made ahead or meals that are ideal for hectic mornings when you need a quick and filling bite on the go, we promise you won't miss the eggs with these satisfying breakfast recipes.

Grits aren’t always paired with shrimp! Martha likes to serve them in individual portions, each topped with a broiled tomato slice, bacon, and plenty of Cheddar cheese.
Basic Granola
Our essential granola recipe is an infinitely adaptable formula, so you can swap in any nuts, seeds, or dried fruit you have on hand. It has just the right amount of sweetness and is wonderfully crunchy.
No-Cook Overnight Oats

Rolled oats soften nicely overnight, so they don't need to be cooked for this oatmeal. Use your preferred dairy or alternative milk and top with your favorite fruits, nuts, and seeds—we love toasted pepitas, dried cranberries, and a drizzle of maple syrup.
Chicken and Mushroom Congee

Frozen strawberries and gut-healthy kefir get blended together to make a luscious smoothie bowl. Pop it in the freezer so it's ready to go the next morning, then top it with your favorites—bananas, chocolate, pepitas, maple syrup, or more strawberries.
Quinoa or Millet Breakfast Bowl
Breakfast porridge goes far beyond your basic oatmeal. Simmer nutty quinoa or millet with your favorite nut milk and top with sliced bananas and cocoa nibs.
Puff Pastry Waffle Hearts
Opt for puff pastry without eggs or labeled vegan to make these puff pastry waffles. Cut out any shapes you like, or use disks to fit the shape of the waffle iron. We like to fill these "puffles" with chocolate-hazelnut spread and top them with fresh strawberries.
Vegan Banana French Toast

Creamy and custardy, this egg- and dairy-free French toast is made with silken tofu and almond milk. Bananas are blended into the custard mixture, and slices are sauteed for serving, making this a sweet way to start the day.

A hearty egg and dairy-free breakfast that’s satisfying, this rice blend is cooked like a porridge with coconut milk, maple syrup, and frozen raspberries, then chilled for serving—it's a great make-ahead option.

:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/kitchari-102882436_vert-6ec1c8124eea46459519fca507378dcd.jpg)
Kitchari is a lot like a savory porridge. Yellow mung dal and rice are simmered down with vegetables and lots of spices. This one is a flavorful savory breakfast and will last in the refrigerator if you make it a few days ahead of time.
Pineapple and Ginger Smoothie

Plain yogurt makes this cool, fruity smoothie extra creamy and delicious. It has fresh (or frozen) pineapple and pineapple juice, so it's plenty sweet.
Breakfast Sausage Puffs
Pigs in a blanket are one of the most satisfying breakfast treats we can think of. Simply wrap egg-free puff pastry around breakfast sausages and bake. This recipe calls for brushing the pastries' tops with egg wash, but you can use milk instead.
Breakfast-Sausage-and-Gruyère Drop Biscuits
:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/breakfast-sausage-gruyere-drop-biscuits-7TuiziXEqYyA4U6zgRihjw-0522-3ea30bde2ccb4cdd97514532681b12d3.jpg)
Drop biscuits are scooped straight from the mixing bowl and are a bit cakier than traditionally formed biscuits. These are packed with breakfast sausage, gruyère cheese, and thyme. Try our feta and dill version if you fancy a vegetarian option.
Brown-Sugar Glazed Bacon
:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/a100717_openernewaltsunday__vert-c67189a2681e462e8babab6412ee8b1a.jpg)
Bacon is a classic accompaniment to the rest of your breakfast, and when it's glazed with brown sugar, no one can resist. These strips are baked in the oven for even cooking and easy cleanup.
Tropical Fruit-Juice Salad
When you juice your fruits, you lose some of the healthy fiber, so we like to keep the fiber on our plates with this fruit juice salad. Pineapple, kiwi, and citrus pinwheels are a vibrant breakfast, especially when paired with a ginger-lemon dressing.
Banana-Oat Smoothie

Skyr is slightly thicker and creamier than traditional yogurt—perfect for making luscious smoothies. This one combines antioxidant-rich blueberries with potassium-packed bananas.
Bircher Chia Parfait
Nico Schinco
A combination of rolled oats and chia seeds serves as the base for this make-ahead breakfast parfait. Layer the chia pudding with yogurt, mango, raspberries, and toasted almonds.
