Healthy Spring Brunch Ideas
Healthy Peanut Butter Glazed Blueberry Mini Donuts
Nothing is cuter and more delicious than mini donuts glazed with peanut butter and popping with fresh blueberries! Vegetarian, Gluten Free, Grain Free, Dairy Free
Chocolate Glazed Sweet Potato Donuts (Paleo)
Think of a thick layer of chocolate glaze on top of a healthy gluten and dairy free mini sweet potato paleo donut! A bite-size treat you’ll be famous for!
Healthy Cashew Date Creamer (GF, DF)
I really think the idea of a special homemade coffee creamer would add a fun touch to any brunch this spring! It’s that little something extra that will leave an impression in people’s minds! Plus this is all the things vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, dairy free, paleo etc… almost everyone can enjoy it!
Healthy Egg Dishes
If it’s brunch, there better be coffee and eggs. (See how I make my iced coffee.)
My claim to fame with these little guys is they don’t have any greek yogurt in them, which sometimes make deviled eggs too tart, despite being healthy! You’ll never guess my secret ingredient. Gluten Free, Grain Free, Vegetarian
This is definitely one of my FAVORITE recipes on the blog! The addition of zucchini gives it a spring/summer feel but it also has a bit of a southwest flare to it. It’s delicious, gluten free, and vegetarian!
Broccoli & Rice Cauliflower Quiche (GF)
I’ve had a TON of great feedback on this recipe! Some of my readers wrote in and said that they got family members to eat broccoli and cauliflower that would NEVER before! Hide them, people, in a delicious quiche! Vegetarian, Gluten and Grain Free
Spinach & Tomato Goat Cheese Quiche (GF)
A bunch of the members at my gym make this quiche for breakfast all the time, they love it! I think the goat cheese makes it seem extra fancy but if you aren’t a fan you can always sub feta! Gluten Free, Grain Free, Vegetarian
Zucchini Quiche Breakfast Quesadilla
Admittedly, I have this for breakfast all week at least once a month, it’s my favorite! This would be a great one because you could make the quiche ahead of time and then just do the quesadillas individually while everyone is talking and sipping their coffee! Vegetarian, it can be gluten or grain free if you use a gluten or grain free tortilla.
Healthy Breakfast Sausage Casserole
This one is more traditional casserole style and man it’s delicious! Filled with flavorful chicken sausage and hearty whole grain bread, it’s DELICIOUS. You can make ahead and let it sit in the fridge overnight until baking but you don’t have to! You would have to use gluten free bread to make this gluten free.
5 Ingredient Healthy Egg Muffins (GF)
If you don’t mind bad pictures, I’ve got a ton more healthy and freaking amazing quiche recipes you could try from before I learned how to use a camera:
Healthy Breads
For me, brunch is all about a nice slice of warm, soft bread and a cup of coffee.
Lemon Blueberry Poppyseed Bread
This healthy blueberry lemon poppyseed bread is moist, bursting with warm blueberries, and exploding with lemon flavor you’d never know it’s good for you!
I’m super proud of this one, it tastes like a sweet oatmeal cookie in the form of a hearty slice of bread! It’s made in ONE bowl, with simple ingredients and no refined flour. In fact, you only use oat flour in this one! Gluten & Dairy Free (contains eggs)
Paleo Coconut Almond Banana Bread
This recipe is from back in the day, but may it’s good. I think coconut is definitely a spring flavor that can’t be missed and this bread brings it own in the most delicious way! Gluten Free, Grain Free
This Paleo Cinnamon Raisin Bread is a healthier but equally delicious version of your favorite sweet bread. Be prepared to make more than one batch!
Healthy Bakes
Okay, there is just one thing in this category, but this is what I would make if I was hosting a luncheon. You could easily double the recipe and place in a huge casserole dish.
Broccoli Cheddar Oatmeal Bake is a savory way to use oats that taste like a comforting bowl of broccoli cheddar soup, but it’s a healthy breakfast, lunch, or dinner! Gluten Free & Vegetarian
