Jamie Oliver's huevos rancheros with beans

"This huevos rancheros recipe is a take on the Mexican dish of eggs and spicy tomato sauce on tortillas. Capsicum gives sweetness, and the chorizo lends a lovely smoky flavour. It’s brilliant for a late brunch. I like to throw in some beans to make it super-hearty and add even more goodness. Try any kind – black, kidney, whatever you have in the pantry." – Jamie Oliver

Crumpets

"Ever made your own crumpets? It kinda does seem like one of those things that might just not be worth the time, right? They come conveniently packaged at the supermarket … but so do bread and crackers, and the homemade versions of those are exponentially more delicious. Fresh homemade crumpets are too.”

Lola Berry's healthy Paleo Brekkie Loaf

It’s no secret that I love sweet things, especially at brekkie time. This loaf isso good because it really feels like you’re eating cake for breakfast, though it’s actually grain free and just so happens to be paleo too! A slice or two of this will have you all powered up and ready to go, with the eggs giving you a whack of protein and the banana acting as a great source of complex carbohydrate and delivering a big hit of the B vitamins you need to get energy into the body. Recipe extracted from Food to Make You Glow by Lola Berry, published by Pan Macmillan Australia.

Creamy vanilla porridge with brown sugar apples

Crêpes with banana and Greek yoghurt

This crêpe batter includes some yoghurt, which makes the flour more digestible when the batter is left to stand overnight; it also makes for silky textured pancakes. They are a little more delicate than wheat based crêpes, so don’t be disheartened if your first one isn’t perfect. Sorghum makes a malty, slightly wholemeal crêpe, but you could substitute other single flours or use a mixture: teff and buckwheat will give a darker, more flexible crêpe, whilst millet, maize and rice flour will give mild flavoured, slightly stiffer pancakes. This recipe is an extract from River Cottage Gluten Free (Bloomsbury, $45).
