Default Re: Breakfast recipes that are quick and easy?

One which might seem weird as a breakfast - we often do a fruit crumble. Apples and pears or whatever, then oats and cinnamon and honey or sugar on top. Bake it for a wee bit, serve with yogurt on top. I know it seems like a dessert, but it's got fruit and oats and yogurt - can't be that bad for you, right? Kids love it.

Or scrambled egg on toast, bit of cheese on top, stick it in the broiler for a few seconds to melt the cheese, then stick another piece of toast on top (my kids add ketchup first). Always a good one when we're in a hurry.

Recently I discovered almonds as a cereal. I'm sure it's mega high calorie and I haven't kid tested it yet, because my husband and I scarfed the lot before they had a chance. I pulsed almonds with vanilla, cinammon, nutmeg and sugar a few times until course ground. Then toasted on the chicken fryer until fragrant and slightly crunchy. Cooled, then serve in a bowl with cream and honey. Indulgent for sure. You could do it with milk and sugar like cereal instead.

Also, rice cereal (yes, adults can eat it too). I toast the rice, then course grind it in the grain grinder, cook it for a long time on low, in boiling water with plenty milk and a bit of cardamom, then I push it all through the homogenizer and it's sooo creamy. We eat it sweet too, because in case you couldn't tell, we're not entirely unsinful when it comes for food...

You can also do rice pudding, make it the night before then serve it cold with some preserves mixed in.

Oh and french toast is usually much quicker and easier than pancakes. Kids always love it.
