Any breakfast-lover who also loves pressing the snooze button understands that the struggle of cooking a morning meal is so, so real. You want to sit down to something delicious, but you just don’t always have the time (or energy) to whip something up before you head out the door. And, frankly, a protein bar or yogurt just ain’t gonna cut it. You need something that’ll fuel you for your long day ahead, but yet something that won’t require you to carve out X amount of time to prepare and then sit down and enjoy. Enter: make-ahead breakfast recipes.
Truth be told, almost anything can be a make-ahead breakfast if you have the foresight to prepare it the night before. Banana bread, egg casseroles, and granola bars are great examples of things you might know and love, but have never thought as easy breakfast meals you can make ahead of time. In addition to those classics, it’s easy to turn breakfast sandwiches into a make-ahead option by taking advantage of your fridge or freezer (and factoring in a few morning minutes for reheating). Or, you can opt for oatmeal served cold, baked, or straight out of the slow-cooker.
Any of these ideas sound intriguing to you? Well, we have so much more. Below, we’ve compiled a list of easy breakfast recipes you can make ahead of time—from deliciously filling bacon and egg muffins to a Mexican breakfast casserole that could last you a full work week to pumpkin-flavored steel-cut oats you can make in your slow cooker. To figure out what kinds of make-ahead breakfasts are for you, check out the ideas below.
