Just pick an ideal recipe that matches your tastes and available ingredients, and you won’t ever need eggs for breakfast again. Scroll down to find out!

1. Bisquick Dumpling

These dumplings are totally different from the common ones in Asian eateries. First, they don’t have wrappings. And their fillings don’t include meat or vegetables. Basically, this recipe is a combination of Bisquick mix with milk, cheese, and herbs.

While most flavor comes from the Bisquick mix, you should also pay close attention to the last two ingredients. For cheese, those with strong flavors like parmesan or cheddar are the best. And I recommend trying cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, or thyme for more flavors.

Making these dumplings is simple, but be careful with small details. For example, make sure to boil the water before throwing the dumplings in. And don’t stir them right away, or they’ll break apart.

2. Eggless French Toast

Total time: 20 minutes (6 French Toasts).

Do you love the signature French breakfasts? Try out this egg-free version of the classic French toast with a fluffy texture and a beautiful golden crust. It tastes similar to the traditional eggy toasts using cornstarch, nutritional yeast, and black salt.

Despite its name, black salt is a special rock salt with a purple or pink color that smells like boiled egg yolks. For this reason, it is a common ingredient used in many egg-free recipes to bring a similar eggy flavor.

Nutritional yeast is also an ideal substitute for eggs with a rich and yummy taste. To prepare this dish, you first need to blend the main ingredients with sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla on a plate or baking dish.

Dip both sides of the bread into the mixture and fry the bread slices with butter until they turn golden brown. Wait for the bread to cool and serve with sugar, strawberries, maple syrup, or your favorite toppings to enhance the flavor.

3. No-Bake Granola Bars

Total time: 10 minutes.

Forget the unhealthy candy and sugary treats; these chewy granola bars are the best snack you can get for an energetic morning. They are packed with fiber and vitamins from oats and seeds that you cannot find in any processed products.  

Maple syrup is a healthier substitute for processed sugar to create a sweet and filling flavor. This recipe doesn’t require any baking or heating; you just need to combine and compress the rolled oats with seeds, maple syrup, and nut butter mixture on a pan.

However, you should prepare the bars overnight and freeze them in the fridge to get the sticky texture. Top them with any fruits or toppings you love, like strawberries, nuts, and seeds, to make the bars fancier. Cut the frozen mixture into small bites or squares to serve.

4. Vegan Breakfast Hash

Total time: 25 minutes.

This delicious vegan breakfast hash contains mainly spices and vegetables, supplying your body with ample sources of healthy fiber and vitamins. The blended flavors and diversified colors of potatoes, red pepper, mushroom, and the fabulous scents of spices are irresistible.

The first step is to chop the vegetables into small pieces (the size of a marble) for easier cooking and serving. Cook the potatoes first on the frying pan at medium heat until they get soft and turn into an eye-catching brown color.

Then add the other veggies and spices (onion, garlic, taco seasoning) for around 10 minutes. You can add more toppings like cheese (dairy-free and vegan) or avocado to give the dish an extra fatty flavor.

Regular potatoes are fine, but sweet potatoes will bring the best flavor. Consider removing red pepper flakes if you don’t want the spicy flavor.

5. Vegan Spanish Omelet

Total time: 45 minutes.

The tortilla or Spanish omelet is one of the classic Spanish morning dishes, but it still comes with eggs. By using sweet potatoes as a substitute, you can create a vegan Spanish omelet with a similar eggy taste and creamy texture.

With less oil and no eggs, this dish is a healthier version that contains no dairy or gluten, suitable for vegans and people with special food allergies. Chickpea flour combined with sweet potatoes creates a yellow and fluffy texture like the traditional omelet.

You will need olive oil, potatoes, onion, and chicken flour with extra seasonings. The olive oil gives the most authentic Spanish omelet taste, but any type of cooking oil works just fine.

To prepare, remove the potatoes and onion peels and wash thoroughly before chopping them into small pieces. You can choose between deep frying or shallow frying the ingredients until they get tender.

Cook and pour a mix of chickpea flour, water, and salt on the fried onion and potatoes, then continue frying for 5 minutes on each side. Season it with black salt, and you are done.

This is the best way to prepare a perfect vegan Spanish Omelet!

6. Sweet Potato Toasts

Total time: 17 minutes.

There’s no doubt that sweet potato is one of the most suitable substitutes for eggs in traditional toast and baked dishes. The mildly sweet flavor and tender yellow texture of sweet potatoes combined with the iconic salt and pepper seasoning make this recipe so amazing.

On the baked potato slices, spread on a layer of smashed avocado topped with vegetables and the fried cheese slices to serve. Season it with salt and pepper for the savory version or honey if you prefer the sweet taste.

Six simple ingredients and 30 minutes are all it takes to prepare the delicious buttermilk biscuit for sugary morning dishes. These tender and flaky biscuits with milk and honey’s sweet and creamy flavor can satisfy your sweet tooth.

The six components are flour, buttermilk, sugar, butter, and baking powder. If you want the golden biscuits packed with more proteins, opt for higher protein all-purpose flour. Use cold butter in your fridge to ensure that it doesn’t melt and helps raise the dough properly.

Let’s start with making the dough by mixing flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Place in small cubes of sliced butter and buttermilk; mix until the mixture is fully combined and gets sticky. Spread on the dough some extra flour if it is too wet to knead.

Use a circle cutter to shape the biscuit dough and bake for around 15 minutes until they slightly turn golden. Let it cool and serve with sugar, honey, or maple syrup to enhance the sweet flavor.

8. Keto Coconut Flour Oatmeal

Total time: 5 minutes.

The Keto coconut flour oatmeal is a low-carb, gluten-free, and egg-free solution for people who want to lose weight. Although this Keto oatmeal doesn’t contain sugar, it still gives a naturally sweet and creamy flavor with an amazing texture.

For the sugar-free version, ensure that you use unsweetened coconut and milk products. Almond milk and almond butter are the best options if you want to avoid gluten, but remember to check their components carefully.
