Four healthy breakfast ideas with high protein

You can top them with just about anything and get all those healthy fats and proteins in. If you make them from bread with seeds and whole grains, it does wonders for your fibre intake. No wonder toasts are a welcome guest at the breakfast table. What are you waiting for? Team up with your KitchenAid Toaster. While it heats or crisps your toast just the way you like it, you can get creative with toppings like salmon, mushrooms or beetroot spread.

1. Toast with beetroot spread

If your alarm clock didn’t wake you up properly, the electric pink colour of this beetroot spread will. It’s delicious, vegan-friendly, and loaded with nut proteins. Chances are high you’ll want it on your toast every day of the week. So, by all means, make a big batch at once. 

2. Mushroom toast

Start off your day right with this umami flavour bomb: sourdough toast topped with nothing but lightly seasoned mushrooms. It’s simple, but oh so satisfying. And if you’re not fond of butter, use oil instead. Avocado oil, coconut oil, … Whichever you prefer. 

3. Salmon toast

The salty taste of smoked salmon versus the zingy sharpness of chimichurri, it just works. If you want to fuel up on protein and omega 3 fatty acids in the morning, it works even better. 

4. Egg and bacon breakfast bagel

A big day ahead of you? This hearty bagel with eggs and bacon keeps your motor going. If you’re living a keto or paleo lifestyle, just switch the bagel for a low-carb alternative like flaxseed or chia seed bread.

Four vegan and vegetarian breakfast ideas

Fond of a sweet breakfast in the morning? These delightful breakfast dishes are bound to get you out of bed. They’re wholesome, easy to make and a treat for your sweet tooth. Bonus: most of them are vegan friendly.

5. Oatmeal

A bowl of steamy oatmeal topped with your favourite nuts, seeds and fruits. Is there a better way to start your day? We highly doubt it. Luckily, you’ll whip it up in a flash with a little help from your KitchenAid Kettle. It boils the water in no time and your oats are ready on the spot. 

6. Blueberry spread bagel

A cream cheese bagel is a true breakfast classic. But if you’re open to an upgrade, mix in some roasted blueberries, lemon zest and vanilla extract. Same high levels of protein and calcium. Extra superfood vitamins. 

7. Peanut butter

There’s only one thing that tops peanut butter on toast. And that’s homemade peanut butter on toast. It’s nutty, creamy, and bursting with protein and healthy fats. Whip it up in a mere 10 minutes, spread it over a rice or seed cracker and top off with some fresh sliced fruit. 

8. Coconut french toast

How about some vacation vibes for breakfast? This tropical version of a french toast is made with creamy coconut milk, topped with crunchy coconut flakes and drizzled with sweet hibiscus syrup. Use a plant-based milk to substitute the semi-skimmed milk for the vegan version. It instantly brightens up your day. 

Three tea ideas other than green tea in the morning

Coffee doesn’t have a monopoly on breakfast. On the contrary, these delicious drinks will wake you up right up as well. So if you’re not big on coffee, plug in your KitchenAid Kettle and have a go at them. 

9. Iced matcha latte

Want to kickstart your day gently? This iced matcha latte does the trick. It’s refreshing, creamy and it contains a milder form of caffeine that wakes you up without giving you the jitters. 

10. Winter tea

You don’t have to drink this heartwarming tea infusion on a slow winter morning, but it’s highly recommended. Cinnamon, anise, cloves, … it holds all your favourite winter spices. Sip it and you’ll want to cosy up in the kitchen just a bit longer. 

11. Chai tea

Ginger, peppercorns, black tea, … Yes, this spicy, yet aromatic tea has all it takes to wake you up on an early morning. Just let it steep while you prep the rest of your breakfast.
