If you are beginning a raw food diet or even beginning to experiment with raw food recipes, you may be wondering what to eat as a raw breakfast. It is not only smoothies and fruit which are easily made on the go, try these quick and easy Raw Breakfast Recipes, packed with everything you need to start the day in the right way.

Vitality 4 Life's Raw Breakfast Recipes:

Raw Banana Pancakes

Serving for 1

Ingredients:

  • 1 banana
  • 2 tablespoons coconut meal or dried coconut flakes
  • Cinnamon

Mash the banana with a fork in a bowl until smooth. Add the coconut meal and some cinnamon, mix well. Flatten the banana/coconut dough and make small pancakes of them. Put the pancakes in a Food Dehydrator or in the oven until they are crispy on the outside. They shouldn't be completely dry but just on the outsides. It is better to prepare them the night before so you only have to heat them up before breakfast time.

Garnish with your favourite fresh fruits, syrups or agave syrup.

Protein Packed Chia Gel Cereal with Seasonal Fruit

Serving for 1

  • 1 tsp chia seeds
  • Dash of cinnamon
  • Ground flax
  • Seasonal fruits such as apple, mixed berries and grapefruit

Place 1 teaspoon of Chia Seed with 8 teaspoons of water. Let it stand and "set" for 30 minutes and a gel will form. Chia is almost tasteless and practically anything can be added to make flavor.
