As a staple in the health-conscious world, these bowls make the perfect breakfast, post-workout treat, or afternoon pick-me-up snack.

      Umm, These Vegan Pizzas Might Even Taste Better Than The Real Thing

      by

      5 Vegan Breakfast Recipes To Help You Ace Veganuary

      by

      Looking for plant-based recipes for Veganuary that are more inspiring than a banana smoothie? If you feel that your vegan breakfasts are getting samey-samey, shake things up with these nutrient-packed, filling recipes to fuel you for the day ahead.
      These vegan recipes are courtesy of healthy foodie Alice Liveing and appear in our bonus book special: Little Book Of Breakfasts: 33 Recipes To Energise You For The Day Ahead.
      1. Spicy butter beans on sourdough

      This vegan recipe can be made gluten-free too if you swap the bread for a gluten-free bread of your choice.

      Ingredients

      Glug of olive oil
      1 shallot, finely chopped
      small garlic clove, crushed
      1⁄2 tsp smoked paprika
      200g tin of butter beans, rinsed
      200g tin of chopped tomatoes
      salt and pepper
      1 slice of sourdough

      Method

      Add the olive oil to a saucepan, then throw in the shallot and garlic, along with half a tablespoon of water and the smoked paprika and leave to sweat for a few mins.
      Next, add the butter beans and chopped tomatoes and leave to simmer on a low heat for around 20 mins, seasoning as desired. While that’s doing its thing, toast the sourdough. Serve the beans on toast and dig in.

      2. Cinnamon oats with stewed apple

      We love powering up our oats with extra fruit, like bananas, berries and stone fruit. Think of this as a healthy apple crumble breakfast.

      Ingredients

      1 small apple, cut into chunks
      1 tsp ground cinnamon
      50g whole rolled oats
      1 tbsp chopped dates
      1 tsp mixed seeds
      almond milk, to cover

      Method

      Begin by throwing the apple chunks into a saucepan with two tablespoons of water, along with the cinnamon, and gently simmer with the lid on for 3 to 5 mins.
      Leave them until softened, then add the oats, dates, and seeds and cover with almond milk. Cook this through until gently simmering, then serve and tuck in.

      3. Smashed avocado and mushrooms with vegan pesto

      Ingredients 

      2 tbsp olive oil
      200g mushrooms, sliced
      1⁄2 avocado
      1 slice of sourdough, toasted
      1 tbsp pesto
      salt and pepper

      Method

      Begin by adding one tablespoon of olive oil to a frying pan, then fry the mushrooms until slightly browned and cooked through.
      Mash the avocado and spread it over the sourdough toast.
      Combine the pesto with the remainder of the olive oil, then place the mushrooms on top of the avocado toast, followed by a good drizzle of your pesto sauce. Season and chow down.

      4. Vegan strawberry smoothie bowl

      Freezing berries (and other fruit, like bananas, mango, melon, pineapple) is a great way to always have these nutrient-packed powerhouses at hand.

      Ingredients

      6 large strawberries
      65g oats
      200ml oat milk
      100g frozen raspberries
      3 large ice cubes
      desiccated coconut (optional)
      almond flakes (optional)

      Method

      This one’s nice and simple. Blitz all the smoothie ingredients (save for the coconut, almonds and one strawberry) in a blender, then pour into a bowl. Top with whatever you fancy – I like desiccated coconut and almond flakes for added crunch.

      5. Porridge with plum and pistachio

      Adding a scoop of vegan protein powder to your oats, smoothies or smoothie bowls helps keep you feeling fuller for longer.

      Ingredients

      1⁄2 tsp coconut butter or oil
      1 large plum, cut into thin wedges
      50g whole rolled oats
      200ml unsweetened almond milk
      1⁄2 tsp ground cinnamon
      1⁄2 scoop of vegan vanilla protein powder (or similar)
      15g pistachios, shelled
      1 tsp maple syrup

      Method

      Preheat the oven to 180°C, then line a baking tray with foil and lightly grease with coconut butter or oil.
      Arrange the plum wedges on the baking tray and roast in the oven for 15 mins or until softened, turning halfway through.
      Meanwhile, put the oats in a small saucepan over low heat, add the almond milk and cinnamon, then gently simmer for a few mins, stirring often. Stir in the protein powder and continue to cook for another few mins, adding an extra splash of milk if needed.
      Roughly chop the nuts or put them in a sandwich bag and give them a bash with a rolling pin. Serve the porridge in a bowl, top with the roasted plum pieces and nuts, and then drizzle with maple syrup.
