We get it, making breakfast is a struggle. It’s hard enough to get out of bed with enough time to brush your hair, let alone make a filling breakfast. To make sure you start the day the right way, we teamed up with @ATE02 to get some of their top Insta-worthy breakfast recipes. The best part? They’re all gluten-free and/or vegan. We tested out a few at Newsette HQ and not only were they easy to make, but they tasted amazing! Really, what else could you ask for? Below, see how you can make these 3 delicious (and beautiful) breakfast recipes too.

Tahini Chai Banana Bread


@ATE02 says…“Vegan, gluten-free, and pretty? It’s a triple threat. This banana bread is not only extremely photogenic but it’s also so damn tasty. ALSO, the bread itself has zero added sugar and is pretty much as healthy as it gets when it comes to a pastry. Now, to make this IG official we must talk about add-ons. I’m talking greek yogurt and blueberry compote. Cut yourself a thick slice, spread on the yogurt, drizzle on the compote, and add some seeds (we love pepitas, hemp seeds, or chia). Now go out there and enjoy your day knowing YOU have had your daily potassium.”
Ingredients
Bread:
3 ripe bananas
1 cup of gluten free flour (or flour of your choice)
1/4 cup of melted coconut oil
1/4 cup of tahini
1 tsp of vanilla
a pinch of sea salt
1/4 tsp of baking soda and baking powder
2 TBSP of almond milk with a dash of ACV
add chia and flax for some XXXTRA HEALTH!
1 TBSP of chai spice (TJS or Amazon)
Crumble:
1/4 cup of vegan butter or coconut oil
1/3 cup of oats
1 tbsp of maple syrup
1/4 cup of flour
Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. Mix wet ingredients first and then add the dry ingredients one at a time (thoroughly mix)
  3. Once banana bread mix is complete, spray down a loaf pan and pour in batter.
  4. Prepare the crumble by combining all the ingredients in a small bowl. Place the crumble on top of the banana bread batter. Evenly spread the crumble.
  5. Bake for about 35-40 minutes.

Avocado Toast With All The Toppings


@ATE02 says… “Ahh yes avocado toast, other than a large public art installation or a runny egg or a mirror selfie what in the world could be more instagrammable? There are a couple of ways to go about assembling avocado toast but our preferred method is the smash. Not only does it achieve that ideal creamy consistency, but smashing avocado is also a huge stress reliever, especially early in the morning. After mixing up your avo, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and garlic powder it’s time to get those creative juices flowing by adding toppings. Personally, I’ve topped avocado toast with everything from fresh veggies to crispy bacon and many a night I awaken in a feverish state to scribble down more toast ideas. My advice to you, get creative and use flavors from your favorite cuisines. Get wild w/ it!”
Ingredients
One Slice of Bread (we love Ezekiel sprouted sesame)
One Avocado
The Juice of ¼ of a lemon
Salt
Pepper
Garlic Powder
Toppings:
Over Easy Egg
Cholula and Red Cabbage
Sprouts and Cherry Tomatoes
Black and White Sesame Seeds
Instructions: 

  1. Mash the avocado in a bowl with the ingredients
  2. Spread the avocado on top of your bread of choice
  3. Add the toppings (listed above) to the toast

Mini Skillet Breakfast Crisp


@ATE02 says…“Do not, I repeat DO NOT let anyone tell you that you can’t have apple crisp for breakfast. We just made it so you CAN and you WILL. With this recipe you’re getting a whole serving of FRUIT for crying out loud – it’s vegan, it’s gluten-free, and it’s made with more love than ever. Every bit of this breakfast will prepare you for whatever comes your way. The fiber will keep you full, the apples will keep you happy and the nuts will make you GO NUTZ. If you are feeling extra crazy, cover that sh*t in yogurt, or, like, ice cream. Idk. You do you. This crumble will be an unexpected IG hit. No one is going to believe you whipped up a mini healthyish apple crumble for breakfast– but here we are. For this picture, we took on the cool granny aesthetic, aka marble back-drop and homie looking tablecloth (dish towel) to create the look. It’s nostalgic and the people will love it.”
