No-Sugar Breakfasts
Get up and go with these morning meals, all free of refined sugar so they won’t have you crashing by 10 am – there’s even a little something for sweet-seekers.
Two Potato Rösti Waffle
Photography by Ashley CappSkin-on Russets and sweet potatoes make up these cheesy röstis, or Swiss-style hash browns. We use both yellow and green onions here, but if you’re looking to simplify, you can use just the yellow onion. Customize this dish with toppings of your choice.
Better Baked Beans on Toast
Instead of the typical sugar-filled tomato sauce in baked beans, the sauce in our version relies on peppery fresh thyme, savory coconut aminos and sour apple cider vinegar to balance out this protein-rich, hearty breakfast.

Persian-Style Spinach & Herb Sauté with Eggs
Awaken your senses with this aromatic breakfast of fresh parsley, cilantro and dill in a spinach sauté with softly cooked eggs nestled inside. A savory yogurt-saffron topping finishes this delightfully easy dish. Serve with a bowl of walnuts or pomegranates to round out your breakfast.
No-Sugar Raspberry Almond Loaf
This flavorful loaf is sweetened with dates and granulated monk fruit, the latter of which is derived from a fruit native to Southeast Asia that’s 100 times sweeter than granulated sugar. It’s low-glycemic and works beautifully in baking recipes. Serve slices with almond butter and fresh fruit.
