High Fibre Breakfast Ideas

We have something for the savoury breakfast lovers or those with a serious sweet tooth, all high-fibre, simple, cheap and of course, delicious!

 

Start your day with a healthy dose of fibre! In this post, we’ll explore a variety of high-fibre breakfast ideas to keep you feeling full, boost your gut health, and energise your day. Whether you’re into sweet or savoury breakfasts, we’ve got something quick, easy, and delicious to suit your taste.

Having a high fibre breakfast from healthy whole grains and complex carbohydrates will digest more slowly and release a gradual increase of sugar into the blood which metabolically, is a much better profile and will not cause any blood sugar spikes or ‘afternoon slumps’. 

  • Start your day by giving your gut a microbiota a treat, why not try our Water+ Probiotic drink for extra beneficial gut health properties. It has more than 1 billion live cultures in each bottle! 

Quick High Fibre Breakfast Ideas

Cinnamon and Pecan Granola

  • For breakfast enjoy a bowl of Cinnamon and Pecan Granola for a nourishing yet indulgent start to the day, which packs 7g of fibre per 100g! Serve with a splash of almond milk or a scoop of coconut yoghurt. Best served with fresh seasonal fruit such as raspberries or sliced banana.

Jumbo Oats Porridge

  • Porridge made from jumbo oats (higher in fibre than instant oats), cooked in your milk of choice with cinnamon and chia seeds. Top it with a big spoonful of peanut butter and a handful of blueberries.

Nut Butter & Banana Toast

  • For a quick and satisfying breakfast, top wholemeal toast with a generous spoon of nut butter and sliced banana. Sprinkle with chia seeds for an additional fibre boost. This high-fiber sweet toast option is great for anyone craving a quick but nutritious meal.

 

High Fibre Savory Breakfast Ideas

Avocado Toast

Spread creamy avocado on wholemeal sourdough toast, then top with sautéed mushrooms and spinach for a savoury start to your day. Sprinkle with pumpkin or sunflower seeds for an added fibre boost. This breakfast is high in healthy fats and fibre, which will keep you energised and satisfied until your next meal.

Sweet Potato Hash

For another savoury option, try a sweet potato hash. Cube roasted sweet potatoes and sauté them with onions, bell peppers, and spinach. 

Benefits of a High Fibre Diet

A high-fibre diet is not only great for gut health but can also improve your overall wellbeing. Here are some of the key benefits of eating more fibre:

  • Improved Digestion: Fibre helps maintain healthy digestion by supporting regular bowel movements and preventing constipation.

  • Lowered Cholesterol: Soluble fibre can help lower bad cholesterol levels and reduce your risk of heart disease.

  • Weight Management: Fibre-rich foods keep you feeling full longer, which can help with weight loss and weight maintenance.

  • Blood Sugar Control: Fibre slows the absorption of sugar into your bloodstream, helping to maintain stable blood sugar levels.

  • Gut Health: A high-fibre diet supports a healthy gut microbiota, which can improve digestion and overall gut health.

As you incorporate more fibre into your diet, make sure to do so gradually, and always drink plenty of water to help the fibre move through your system.
