50 Delicious and Healthy Breakfast Recipes for Kids!

50 Delicious and Fun Breakfast Recipe Ideas for Kids collage showing cookies, muffins, pancakes, breakfast bars, chocolate porridge and overnight oats

If like me, you struggle to perform even the simplest of tasks before a gallon of coffee has been consumed, breakfast time with kids can be stressful!

It's often the one meal of the day that has to be prepared in double quick time in order to make sure everyone is out the door for pre-school/nursery/school and/or work and so it's easy for us to fall back on the same old trusty breakfast staples.

But variety is really important when it comes to children and food and so in an effort to expand our range of breakfasts I've put together my Top 50 Breakfast Recipes that are delicious, filling and healthy too.

Many of these can also be made in advance or frozen too, perfect if you don't have a lot of time to prepare food in the mornings.

If you try any of the recipes, please do leave me a comment below. You can also share your pictures with me on Instagram.  I always love to see your creations!

    Is oat bran different than oat flour?  I use oat bran to make blueberry muffins and I can’t help but wonder if I can use oat flour instead? Thanks for all the wonderful recipes. 5.0 rating

      Yes oat bran is different to oat flour. It tends to me more coarse. But you can use both in the muffins. You might just have to adjust how much liquid you put in.
