Just because you're vegan doesn't mean breakfast is limited to smoothies, oatmeal, or energy bars. You're not limited to chia pudding, granola, or peanut butter toast either. (Sorry smoothies, I like you too, remember that time I made 10 vegan dessert smoothies... yeah, see I still like you. Just not today).
Today, I want big, hearty vegan breakfasts. I'm talking breakfast burritos, pancakes, quiche, breakfast sandwiches, waffles, scrambles, french toast, and all things to make an epic vegan morning feast.
I asked around the vegan blogging community for their best breakfast recipes, and boy did they deliver!
So brew some coffee, and make room in your belly, because this collection of recipes is going to make you HUNGRY!

So Delicious, I made it. And I will make again and again. Thanks for sharing
This is super helpful- I’ve been trying to eat healthy lately so these are some great foods!
now i won't have to think for every breakfast thanks to your guide
I made this for breakfast this morning. I think this is my new favorite breakfast! It is so delicious and easy to prepare
Thanks for sharing! I have to save it to make breakfast for my family.
the link for the sweet potato/apple latkes leads to a site that's currently under construction, do you have another link for the recipe?
these recipes look amazing, excited to try a bunch of them!
cheers!
Mmmmm, I love vegan bacon! Excited to try with Tempeh!! So funny for me to think of polenta and tempeh being together in a dish, but this one looks like it really works:) Yum!
OMG.. I love this so much. i'm going to have to try all it. Thanks for your sharing and waiting a new your post
You're most welcome 🙂
Thank you for posting all these ideas. Going to try every. single. one!!
Awesome!
I was curious. Would these recipes work well if reheated? I would like to try something to take to work and heated on a break.
I'm anxious to try a couple of breakfast recipes I have found on here, but may I suggest that you try to find a way to put a picture of the dish on the form when you click on it to print it out. I am a very visual person, and when I'm looking for something to make that looks good to me, I want to see a picture of it, not just the printed recipe. Just a thought.
Hi Maureen, this post is a collection of recipes from my blogging friends across the web. I can't control what they do with their recipes on their sites, but on my blog here at itdoesnttastelikechicken.com there is always a picture included when you print out the recipe. You can see my full recipe index here. Enjoy!
Finally some breakfast recipes without sugar ❤️. I mean I don't mind sugar but I much prefer salty food anyway . Thank you!
So happy you enjoy!
I had no idea my mouth could water so much! I’m so excited to try these recipes!
Yay! Happy to hear that 🙂
That Shamrock Sandwich... I'm a fan!
Just looking at it makes me salivate. Thank you for sharing Sam.
You're most welcome, Jess 🙂
Thank you Sam, Finally some truely delicious alternatives for clean living and a clear mind!
Glad you enjoyed!
Drooling over your Blueberry french toast muffins!
They look amazing, thank you for sharing.
My pleasure, enjoy!
I love your site, Sam! Your spirit is infectious and has inspired me to give veganism another try. (I've been a vegetarian for 30 years but have never been brave enough to give up cheese!) Also, I'm really impressed how you include posts from other foodies. You are very gracious! It's so helpful to have a community of inspiration to draw from. Look forward to reading more from you!
Thanks so much, Carolyn! Thrilled you are inspired to try veganims. So happy you found me. I hope you enjoy many recipes! 😀
Do you still have the links for no. 20 and 23? It looks like they are missing
Sure do! They have been updated.
I just tried the breakfast hash! Absolutely delicious, by the way. I'm starting on veganism and breakfast was my most difficult meal... until today! Thanks so much for sharing this amazing list. I will try all of them (not at once, of course,ha ha)
So happy you like the recipes, Aylin! I have a whole chapter on vegan breakfast recipes in my cookbook as well 🙂
All the dishes looks so amazing. Recipes are so easy, I will definitely try all of these recipes one by one. I tried 2 recipes and they were awesome. Please bring some more posts on vegan recipes.
Glad you like them. All of my recipes are vegan so make sure to check out my recipe index and subscribe so you get the new recipes straight to your inbox.
This is an incredible collection! So many great ideas and a lot I've never seen before like the omelettes and quiches! Thank you!! 🙂
You are most welcome Mallory! I hope you enjoy them 🙂
These all sound so good! I am just entering into veganism and am on the lookout for all sorts of recipes (I have to be careful with nuts and legumes though, which adds an extra interesting challenge to it all! :p ). While I can't make all of these exactly as written out, this was a great source of inspiration. Thank you!! ♥ ♥ ♥
You're so welcome, Phantom! Let me know if you ever have any questions or need any support on going vegan 🙂
Thia is great! I am new to the vegan world. I will definitely be trying these recipes for sure!
I hope you love them Kimberly!
Hi JOJO, I'm sorry to hear you are having difficulties. I actually don't allow any pop-up ads on my site, so it sounds like you might have some adware on your browser (something you could have accidently gotten similar to a virus). Maybe this tutorial could help you remove it so you can enjoy your browsing experience. Hope that helps!
Ha! I love the title of this post because I find myself telling people to eat oatmeal and drink smoothies for breakfast since I usually do. lol
I need to add some of these recipe ideas. Thanks!
Haha! So glad I could help 🙂
Love this list Sam. There are several things I will be trying. To bad I had dinner already. ha ha
Haha!! Too bad indeed! I hope you love whatever recipes you decide to try 🙂
The links are working for me, and I live on an island where connectivity is difficult. Sam, this may be the best list I've ever seen. I'm going to try the ones I haven't already tried. YUM.
So glad the links are working! I really didn't know what else I could try doing. So happy you love the list Bethery! Let me know if you ever have any list ideas, I am going to try to keep putting them out every so often as everyone seems to enjoy them 🙂
Yum! These look seriously good. Thank you so much for including my latkes! 🙂
Don't they!? Haha. You're very welcome Maya!
Ha! I laughed at the title of this because I am so a BIG breakfast gal – typically eating a large savory breakfast and no lunch. A smoothie will never “cut it” for me and I absolutely don’t crave sweet in the A.M. Wonderful batch of big breakfasts for a gal like me! TY! (And whoopsie just posted this to the wrong blog - obviously I have not had breakfast yet.)
Hahaha! So happy it hit the spot for you Kathy! I'm sure the other blogger was pretty confused for a minute! haha.
These look fabulous BUT - the first 10 links don't work. I have tried on 3 separate occasions. :-/
Oh no! I just went through and tried all 10 but they all worked for me and all the coding looks right. Some of the sites did load slowly, but I can't control that as they aren't my sites. For any that aren't working for you I recommend copying and pasting the blog name and recipe name into google. It should be the first recipe that comes up. Hope that helps!
Very strange indeed! Sorry for your trouble then.
No problem at all!
im just writting to tell you that i love your blog!!!! i not a vegan but i have try some of your recipes and were great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My breakfast for a long time is been nicecream with frozen bananas + strawberrys + nuts and seeds!!! Sooo yummy!!!! surprise me you didnt mention!!!!!!!!
bye!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aww thank you so much!! I love nicecream as well and have been enjoying it a lot recently. Maybe I will include it in the next round-up! So happy you are enjoying my blog 🙂
Thank you so much for including me!! What a fantastic roundup. Now I kinda want to eat breakfast all day!
Right? Dinner and lunch feel so overrated right now! Haha
Oh my! They all look so good...guess I will just have to make them all LOL! Great variety of recipes...THANKS for sharing!
Don't they looks scrumptious?? You're welcome Sandy!
It's 10pm here and I'm wondering: 'is it breakfast time yet?' All these delicious recipes have my mouth watering!
Haha! Go to sleep, breakfast will come so much sooner that way! 🙂
Was just thinking "I don't know if I can face another bowl of Bircher with chia seeds" Such perfect timing. Thanks.
Yay! You're very welcome. No chia seeds here!
Thanks for including my waffles! Great roundup...will share for sure!
You're most welcome!
Wow, this breakfast roundup is insanely delicious looking! This is perfect to send to some of my non-vegan friends that believe I just eat weeds. I see so many recipes on here that I want to try, too. Thank you so much for including my breakfast sandwich. I feel honored to be next to such awesomeness! 🙂
You're most welcome, you sandwich looks amazing!! Yeah, as much as oatmeal is good, I really don't think it's going to woo any meat eaters to the greener side! Haha. Hopefully this collection helps.
All of these absolutely had me DROOLING! Such a great idea to list vegan options that differ from the usual choices...though, considering my addiction to smoothies and oatmeal, I might end up eating these for lunch or dinner instead! 😉
Haha! That's totally fair! I'm on a nice cream kick for breakfast myself on these hot days 🙂
All SOOO delicious! The best meal of the day!!
I am humbled to be included! xoxo
Haha you're most welcome Rebecca 🙂
Your French toast may be an old recipe, but it's to die for.
I know right? I had to include it. Maybe I will update the recipe and pictures one day...
LOVE IT! THANK YOU!!! Gonna share! (Sorry for the caps lock, too excited) 😀
Haha I totally understand your excitement!!
Great collection Samantha! Thanks so much for including my Enchilada Breakfast Casserole! I can't wait to try some of the other recipes too!
Don't the all look so good? You're very welcome Angel 🙂
Thanks Sam!! Most certainly sharing, this post is fantastic 🙂
Thank you so much Natalie 🙂
Oh great FINALLY! So tired of this oatmeal-greensmoothie-healthy-breakfast trend... THAANNNKS <3
Right!? Why does my breakfast need to have greens and chia in it? Sometimes I just want something hearty delicious like the rest of the population! Haha.
