Rise and shine! Whether you you prefer to enjoy a healthy breakfast to give you energy for the day, or a mimosa-filled brunch where sweet meets savoury, I’ve rounded up six dishes that prove that breakfast is the best meal of the day.
Avocado Toast with Miso Mushrooms and Poached Egg [Photo: Less With Bread]
Probably the trendiest breakfast of the last year is avocado toast, and with good reason! It’s filling and healthy, perfect way to kick start the day. This one gets amped up with homemade rye bread, roasted honey-miso mushrooms, and a perfectly poached egg for an Instagram-worthy dish.

Lemon Poppyseed Waffles with Blueberry Compote [Photo: Less With Bread]
Waffles are the ultimate sweet breakfast food. Crispy and fluffy, with little pockets to conveniently catch butter and syrup for you, they are a masterpiece that can be enjoyed sweet or savoury. My version is a take on your traditional lemon poppy seed loaf, topped with blueberry compote and mascarpone whipped cream.

Brioche French Toast with Caramelized Bananas [Photo: Less With Bread]
French toast is one of the most customizable breakfast foods out there, and one of the most decadent. Fluffy brioche bread is soaked in cream, sugar and vanilla, then fried with butter until golden brown and crisp. My mouth is watering just thinking about it! This version is topped with caramelized bananas and a sprinkle of icing sugar for a sweet morning treat.

Breakfast Portobello Mushrooms [Photo: Less With Bread]
Meaty portobello mushrooms and prosciutto make a perfect tag team. Top it with an egg fried just so, so that the yolk remains runny and oozes over the mushrooms when you cut into it. A great option if you’re hosting brunch as everything gets made in the oven and you can easily make a large batch.

Cornmeal Pancakes with Fig Compote [Photo: Less With Bread]
You can’t think of breakfast without thinking about pancakes! Cornmeal is used here for a heavier, denser pancake similar to delicious, buttery cornbread. A little less sweet than regular buttermilk pancakes, and topped with a delicious fig compote spiked with cardamom, it’s a great spin on a classic dish!

Asparagus Eggs Benedict [Photo: Less With Bread]
Eggs benny is one of my breakfast favourites, but totally on the unhealthy side with all of that butter in the hollandaise sauce. Lighten it up just a tad and sub your english muffin for blanched asparagus! Gluten free, colourful and perfect for the coming months when it’s asparagus season!
