I find breakfast to be the trickiest meal of the day to cater to with my dietary requirements. I need a repertoire of delicious breakfast options on hand for when I inevitably get bored of my last breakfast fixation. In case you’re in the same boat as I am, I thought I would round up all of my gluten free breakfast recipes into one easy post.

Gluten free breakfast recipes

These recipes are all low FODMAP and gluten free. Although the low FODMAP diet is not necessarily a gluten free diet, a lot of gluten containing grains are moderate to high in FODMAPs.

These recipes are all also vegetarian (because I am vegetarian) or vegan. There are plenty of nut free, egg free, xanthan gum free and corn free options as well. My hope is that there is something for everyone!

Gluten free granola

Sometimes there is nothing better than a giant bowl of granola. This recipe uses rice flakes instead of oats to keep the granola oat free. Oats aren’t considered gluten free in Australia, so rice flakes make a delicious and crunchy stand in. I have developed a low FODMAP gluten free version as well.
