10 Clean Breakfasts In Under 5 Minutes

Breakfast ideas: fast, clean, & delicious.

Breakfast time can be crazy, whether you’re herding kids, walking the dog, or prepping for work. You may even be juggling all three! But you don’t need to stress about eating healthy in the morning. Check out these 10 clean breakfasts that can be prepared in under 5 minutes.

Processed breakfast foods seem convenient, but they provide few nutrients to energize the body and brain. The result? A slow-mo morning. Clean breakfasts don’t weigh you down with refined sugar, artificial sweeteners, and processed grains. They give your body and brain the nutrients they need to tackle the craziest to-do list.

The breakfast recipes below offer antioxidants, fiber, healthy fats, and super simple prep. From a deliciously warm crockpot oatmeal to an outrageously simple homemade pancake mix, these recipes deliver what you need to rock your day the easy way. You’ll also find recipes featuring probiotic-rich Greek yogurt — because who needs constipation and bloating to gum up the morning?
