1. Peanut Butter Banana Bowl

The classic peanut butter and banana combo gets a healthy makeover in this delicious cereal bowl. Start with a base of dairy or nut milk; almond, oat, or soy milk works great. For an extra protein boost, add a dollop of Greek yogurt.

Top with 2-3 bananas, sliced. Pick slightly green bananas for the perfect ripeness once you're ready to eat. Next, add a generous spoonful of creamy peanut butter. Peanut butter provides healthy fats to keep you full and protein to power you through the morning.

You can use crunchy peanut butter for extra texture. Drizzle the bowl with 2-3 tablespoons of honey to sweeten the mix and balance the flavors—natural sweetness of honey pairs perfectly with bananas and peanut butter.

For crunch, sprinkle 1/4 to 1/2 cups of your favorite chopped nuts like almonds, walnuts, or peanuts. Nuts add protein, fiber, and healthy fats. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly before enjoying your bowl.

2. Berry Almond Bowl

Berries and almonds are a match made in heaven. Bring them in this creamy berry almond cereal bowl for a quick and satisfying breakfast. Start with a base of almond milk, the perfect nut milk pairing for this recipe. Almond milk provides a creamy texture without the dairy.

Add 1 cup of your favorite berries like blueberries, strawberries, or a mix. Berries provide a burst of sweetness and lots of antioxidants. Toss two tablespoons of chia seeds high in fiber, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids for extra nutrition.

Top your berry and chia base with 1/3 to 1/2 cup of sliced almonds. Almonds provide healthy fats, protein, and many vitamins and minerals to power you through the morning. Their crunch contrasts nicely with the soft berries and chia seeds.

3. Pumpkin Spice Bowl

For a cozy fall breakfast, whip up this pumpkin spice cereal bowl. Start with a base of almond milk or dairy milk. For extra creaminess, use vanilla yogurt instead of milk. Add 1/2 cup of pumpkin puree, providing vitamin A, fiber, and potassium.

Spice it up with 1/2 teaspoon each of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. The combination of these warm spices gives pumpkin dishes that familiar pumpkin spice flavor. You can add more or less depending on how spicy you like it.

Mix your pumpkin puree and spice with 1/3 to 1/2 cup of crunchy granola. Granola adds texture and more nutrients like whole grains, nuts, and seeds. For chewy bursts of sweetness, toss in 1/4 cup of dried cranberries.

Give your bowl a drizzle of maple syrup to tie all the flavors together and balance the spices. Maple syrup is the perfect natural sweetener for fall. Mix everything well until the pumpkin puree has a creamy orange hue speckled with spices, granola, and cranberries.

4. Avocado Toast Bowl

Take avocado toast to the next level with this delicious avocado toast cereal bowl. Start with 2-3 slices of crusty bread like sourdough or multi-grain, and toast them. Then, mash 1-2 ripe avocados directly on the toast. Avocados provide healthy fats and lots of vitamins and minerals.

Fry 1-2 eggs sunny-side up or over easy and place them on top of the avocado toast. The runny egg yolk creates a creamy sauce for the bowl. Eggs offer a perfect dose of protein to keep you full. Add heat to your bowl with chili pepper slices, oil, or your favorite hot sauce. Chili provides spice and capsicum for metabolism-boosting effects.

Squeeze fresh lime or lemon juice over the top of your bowl. Citrus juice provides the brightness that balances the flavors and prevents the avocado from oxidizing. Finish your bowl with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt and black pepper. High-quality olive oil and seasonings enhance all the flavors.

5. Quinoa Fruit Bowl

Start your morning with a bright quinoa fruit bowl. Cook 1 cup of tri-colored quinoa according to package directions. Quinoa is a whole grain that provides 8 grams of protein and 5 grams of fiber per cup.

Add 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt. Yogurt provides protein, calcium, and creaminess. For extra nutrition, toss in 1/4 cup of sliced almonds. Top your quinoa and yogurt with 2 cups of fresh fruit such as mango, kiwi, strawberries, and blueberries. Fruit provides natural sweetness, and lots of antioxidants, and vitamins.

The stoneware or ceramic bowl contains the quinoa base and all the toppings in one delicious dish, similar to a pasta bowl or ramekin. Drizzle the bowl with 2-3 tablespoons of honey and the juice from half a lime. Honey and lime juice balance the flavors and prevent the fruit from oxidizing.

Mix all ingredients thoroughly before enjoying your quinoa fruit bowl. The quinoa provides a chewy, hearty base for bright citrus and sweet summer fruits. Whether you want a light breakfast or a wholesome snack, this fresh take on yogurt and granola has bright flavors and nutrition to satisfy.
