    Healthy Breakfast Ideas For Kids

    Breakfast Cookies

    If you’re finding it difficult to get the kids to sit down at the breakfast table each morning, it might be time to shake up the menu a bit. As adults, we often tend to think of breakfast as a rather basic and functional mealtime (although it needn’t be - check out some of our Easy Breakfast Ideas & Recipes!), but this can quickly lead to brekkie boredom for children.

    Obviously, none of us want to be putting together anything especially complicated first thing in the morning. It’s important to keep things nutritious and relatively low sugar, too - we don’t want them crashing an hour after eating.

    With both these things in mind, below you’ll find a couple of weekday-friendly easy, fun and healthy breakfast ideas for kids.

    Oat Breakfast Cookies

    Peanut Butter and Banana Oat Breakfast Cookies

    These aren’t just for the kids, of course - they’re ideal for all the family to snack on with a breakfast coffee at home, or for adding to a lunchbox for when you’re out and about on workdays. This recipe makes about 12 pieces, but feel free to double up the ingredients for a larger batch; the baked biscuits will last about a week in a sealed tin or tub.

    Eggy vegetable muffins

    Eggy vegetable ‘muffins’

    These are a fantastic way to make something as potentially mundane as morning eggs seem a bit more fun for kids, while also smuggling some additional veggies into their breakfast.

    Again, they can be made ahead of time if you store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days. They’re great to eat cold, of course, which makes them ideal for lunchboxes - but if you’d prefer to serve something quick and warm at breakfast, they’re equally easy to heat for 30 seconds in a microwave.

    The recipe itself could hardly be simpler: just roast or boil any veggies you’d like, chop them up nice and small, add them to a basic egg and cheese mixture, and bake in a muffin tray. You can swap out almost any of the non-egg ingredients we’ve suggested below for whichever veg/cheese alternatives you have lying around.
