Forget breakfast bars or muffins: Our new favorite grab-and-go breakfast is a blondie. Think of them like a healthyish muffin in bar form. Made with almond butter and flaxseed meal, they’re grain-free and packed full of protein.

Recipe notes

Double-Chocolate Flourless Brownies

Nutty and deeply chocolatey, these brownies just so happen to be gluten-free.

Dark Chocolate Flax Bark

Crunchy, seedy flax crackers get topped with dark chocolate and a showering of sea salt for the ultimate sweet and salty snack.

Coffee Cake Scones

Sour cream scones get treated to a cinnamon-sugar swirl and crunchy streusel crown.

Chocolate Chip Cookies With Olive Oil and Sea Salt

Olive oil gives these cookies robust, sophisticated flavor (and makes them secretly vegan).

Blueberry Muffin Baked Oatmeal

A nourishing, cozy breakfast you can throw together with fresh or frozen berries.

Salmon With Sizzled Nut Salsa

A savory-hot salsa made with mixed nuts (like the kind dubbed cocktail nuts meant for snacking) gives roast salmon a kaleidoscope of textures and flavors.

Babka French Toast Bake

This breakfast-for-a-crowd crams everything good about babka into a hearty casserole: sweet custard, cinnamon, chocolate, and tender slices of bread.

Pumpkin Flan de Queso

This seasonal take on a Puerto Rican favorite adds pumpkin purée and a touch of warm spice for an autumnal flair.
