Warming breakfast ideas

Winter mornings are just better with warm, hearty and delicious breakfasts.

If you’re anything like us, when you think of winter breakfasts, it’s all about warmth and heat and deliciousness. Meals to warm you from the inside and set you on the right path for the day. Afterall, it’s cold outside.

But today’s breakfast is about more than just soft boiled eggs, bacon and eggs or Vegemite on toast.

So, let’s rub the sleep from our eyes, grab a cuppa and chat all things breakfast.

Is breakfast still the most important meal of the day?

For years we were told that skipping breakfast was an absolute no-no. The word itself literally means ‘breaking the fast’ and hinted at trouble if you didn’t fuel your body within an hour of waking up.

But a 2019 study conducted by Monash University dismissed the age old adage.

‘We found that breakfast is not the most important time of the day to eat, even though that belief is really entrenched in our society and around the world.’

So there you have it. If you skip breakfast, you’re not doing yourself any long term harm.

But why would you skip something so delicious?

H2: Yes, porridge is still a thing

Porridge, or oats, remains a popular and versatile breakfast. And we’re absolutely loving this porridge recipe that can be made in a slow cooker. You literally throw everything into the slow cooker before you go to sleep and when you wake up the next morning, piping hot healthy, delicious and creamy porridge awaits. Add some in season berries, flaked almonds and honey and your tummy will be full until lunch.
