Choosing what you want for breakfast can be hard enough without adding dietary requirements to the mix. To make life a little bit easier, I thought I’d compile this list of gluten free dairy free breakfast recipes to start you on your way.

Gluten free dairy free breakfast recipes

These recipes are, of course, gluten free and dairy free. They are also all xanthan gum free and mostly low FODMAP. I try to include lots of egg free and nut free options for people with extra dietary requirements, too.

Gluten free bagels

These gluten free bagels utilise a scald and some psyllium husk for maximum chew without any xanthan gum. They’re naturally dairy free, and vegan except for the egg wash. I wrote up a completely vegan version, too. Both bagels are low FODMAP thanks to the onion and garlic free everything bagel seasoning. I recommend the easy low FODMAP vegan lox, too.

Gluten free overnight ‘oats’

My love affair with rice flakes is just beginning, courtesy, in part, of these overnight oats. Unlike quinoa flakes, rice flakes have a very subtle nutty flavour. It pairs so well with cinnamon, for an almost horchata like breakfast. You can add dairy free protein powder for an extra hit of protein, too.
