Breakfast / Brunch Recipes
Few people enjoy a proper breakfast more than I do. This is a list of many of the best breakfast and brunch recipes I’ve discovered over the years. Some are quick grab-and-go recipes, others are for when you have more time.

Chia Breakfast Bowl
A summery chia breakfast bowl - soak the chia seeds in your favorite nut milk, top with smashed berries, fresh passionfruit juice, pepitas, and big flakes of toasted coconut. A bit of bee pollen adds a boost and some pretty.
A Lesson in Juicing
I inherited a professional juicer, juiced everything in sight, and learned a few things in the process.
Cinnamon Buns
An updated look at the cinnamon buns I make for Christmas morning each year. Inspired by the recipe in Lotta Jansdotter's book, Handmade Living, these cinnamon buns are made from a cardamom-flecked, buttery yeast dough with a classic cinnamon-sugar swirl.
Grab & Go Chia Yogurt Parfait
A favorite grab-and-go breakfast flecked with lots of nutritional chia seeds, and topped with berries and whatever you like for crunch. Takes two minutes tops to pull together.
Savory Do-It-Yourself Power Bars
These homemade power bars are based on the recipe I published years ago in Super Natural Cooking. The main difference here is I made these more savory with toasted walnuts, crumbled kale chips, and oil-cured olives.
Whole Wheat Waffles
Perhaps the only waffle recipe you need. Enjoy!
Healthy Breakfast Ideas
Quick, clever, healthy breakfast ideas are something I'm always excited to discover. I landed on what I think of as new healthy breakfast favorite this week, and instead of simply sharing that recipe, I thought I'd list it off with a handful of other feel-good day starters.
Rye Crepes
The new year is here, and so far it has been crisp air, clear skies, thickest softest sweaters, afternoon reads, and big stews. We made crepes New Years Eve, and celebrated fresh starts, optimism, and our hopes for the coming months - a simple night of sparkling wine, crepes, and a far-away view of the downtown fireworks.
Bay Leaf Pound Cake
An incredibly moist and fragrant bay leaf pound cake from David Lebovitz's new cookbook. A perfect road trip cake.
Poached Eggs in White Wine
Eggs poached in white wine peppered with minced shallots and herbs. A simple twist that immediately transformed the humble poached egg into something just a hint special and unexpected. Served over smashed avocado on toasted bread.
