Paleo Waffles with Spiced Coconut Cashew Cream and Blueberries
These Paleo Waffles with Spiced Coconut Cashew Cream and Blueberries are a true treat. Whether you’re whipping them up during a weekday (for a bit of extra indulgence) or spending a lazy Sunday morning in the kitchen, you’ll love their unique taste and texture. The waffles themselves are made with our Paleo Pancake & Waffle Mix, eggs, water and coconut oil, and the coconut cream comes to life with raw cashews, coconut milk, honey, ground cinnamon, allspice, lemon juice and fresh blueberries. This dish is fresh, bright and berry-filled (and was even served at Feast Portland in 2017). Our Paleo Pancake & Waffle Mix is gluten free and grain free and makes these waffles super easy to throw together. It’s a mix of almond flour, coconut flour, simple root starches, organic coconut sugar and baking soda and in addition to waffles, it also makes delicious pancakes. All you need to whip up a batch are eggs, water and coconut oil. If you have a hankering for morning waffles or pancakes but are looking to keep things keto, give this mix a try. Your end result will be fluffy, golden and delicious!
Bob's Red Mill Low Carb Muffins
We love keeping a big batch of low carb muffins on hand for easy mornings. You can warm them up for a few minutes in the oven and add an extra spread of nut butter for some additional protein and healthy fats. This recipe for Bob’s Red Mill Low Carb Muffins incorporates our Low-Carb Baking Mix, eggs, oil and vanilla. The low-carb baking mix is perfect to keep in the pantry as it can be used cup-for-cup to replace other low carb flour blends in your favorite recipes. It can be used to create low-carb bread, biscuits, waffles, brownies, muffins or any other sort of baked good your heart desires! One 1/4-cup serving provides 5 grams of dietary fiber and is packed with a bunch of hearty goodness. It’s perfect for this basic muffin recipe, which can be spruced up with all your favorite spices, fruits or nuts. This batch in particular makes eight muffins, so you might want to make a double batch!
Vanilla Coffee Smoothie
Smoothies are the perfect keto diet breakfast recipes. They’re versatile, quick to throw together and tend to be packed with everything you need to kickstart the day. This Vanilla Coffee Smoothie recipe brings your morning “cup of joe” to new levels. It was developed by superfood chef Julie Morris and takes just five minutes to throw together. Our Vanilla Protein Powder Nutritional Booster, raw cashews, Psyllium Fiber Powder, instant coffee powder and coconut water are blended with ice for a refreshing and nutrient-packed morning pick-me-up. For a smoothie with some different flavors, try this Lemony Almond Green Smoothie. It was also developed by Chef Julie and is bright, citrus-filled and invigorating. It comes to life with a mix of Protein & Fiber Nutritional Booster, almond butter, fresh lemon juice, coconut water and baby spinach, fresh parsley and celery for all things good and green. Whatever sort of smoothie you’re blending together, remember that’s okay to think outside of the box. You’ll be surprised how good some greens and protein powder will make you feel in the morning!
Artichoke Hazelnut Tart
This grain-free Artichoke Hazelnut Tart can be served as an hors d’oeuvre or with a green salad for a light meal. It also makes a delicious breakfast, if you’re in the mood for something savory! The crust utilizes our Hazelnut Flour/Meal for its base and with a cheesy filling of artichokes and spices, this tart is a keeper! Serve it for dinner the night before, then delight in a slice the next morning.
Pumpkin Chai Boost Bars
Like a batch of simple muffins, wholesome bars are one of our favorite breakfast ideas for keto diet. Whether it’s a tide-me-over until lunch or a morning when you’re on-the-go, these Pumpkin Chai Boost Bars are packed with flavor and nutrients and will keep you going throughout the day. They’re made with a beautiful mix of Natural Almond Flour, Whole Grain Oat Flour, Date Sugar, Chai Protein Powder Nutritional Booster, pumpkin puree and Pumpkin Seeds. Although we think these bars taste especially wonderful in the early fall when the air is crisp and the leaves are starting to change, they can be eaten at any time of year! In addition to having them for breakfast, you can also throw them in your gym bag and use them for post-workout fuel. If you’re a fan of breakfast bars (and tropical flavors), try this recipe for Low-Carb Coconut Macadamia Nut Bars. Carolyn from All Day I Dream About Food uses Bob’s Red Mill Almond Flour, coconut cream, macadamia nuts and flaked coconut to create a bar that some may see as a dessert, but we think could be enjoyed as a breakfast, too!
Almond Meal Bread
When you’re following a keto diet, Almond Meal Bread can be used for everything from sandwiches to breakfast toast. This recipe is entirely versatile and calls for just six ingredients: eggs, coconut oil, Natural Almond Flour, Organic Coconut Flour, baking powder and salt. The star of the bread is, of course, the almond flour, which is ground from whole almonds, skins and all. It has a super fine texture and a nutty flavor that’s perfect for paleo and gluten free, grain free baking and cooking.
Paleo Cookie Dough Truffles
If you love your treats as much as we do, you’ll be thrilled to read that one of our keto breakfast ideas includes cookie dough! These Paleo Cookie Dough Truffles are paleo friendly and made with all natural sweeteners. The truffles are a mix of Paleo Baking Flour, Unsweetened Shredded Coconut, creamy nut butter, coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla and the optional addition of Enjoy Life Semi-Sweet Mini Chocolate Chips. Top it all with a chocolate coating and toasted shredded coconut and you’ll be in breakfast bliss!
Paleo Carrot Cake with Coconut Frosting
Who says you can’t have cake for breakfast? At Bob’s Red Mill, we like to think a slice of nutritious morning cake goes perfectly alongside a mug of piping hot coffee. This Paleo Carrot Cake with Coconut Frosting is made with a mix of Paleo Baking Flour, shredded carrots, coconut oil and a whole bunch of delightful spices. The frosting of full-fat coconut milk, honey and orange zest is simple and a good recipe to keep on hand for all sorts of keto baking. Make a loaf of this cake on a Sunday evening and enjoy a slice each morning throughout the week! If you’re looking for something a little heartier, pair your slice with a simple scramble.
