These 15 Minute Breakfasts Will Change Your Life

we're taking the 15-minute meal series to the land of breakfast because we all know how insane mornings can be whether you're trying to get your kids to school maybe you want to work out in the morning or you just start working really early whatever it is it doesn't matter but what is important is that you start your day off right with a nice homemade meal and that's what we're covering in today's video my top four breakfast options that are all super delicious very customizable but most importantly they all come together in under 15 minutes we're starting off very strong because i make this first breakfast dish more than anything in the kitchen probably every other day especially since i've had a kid oh my god my daughter loves these pancakes and they're very nutritious they're very filling and it's a mix between eggs and bananas so if you can't choose between a savory egg breakfast and more of a sweeter breakfast this one combines them both and i think that's why i love it so much all you really need to remember to make these pancakes is this ratio right here for every banana use one egg so i'm using three medium bananas which has been my go-to ratio it gives me a solid breakfast for three plus some leftovers for the next day so i'm gonna get the bananas in a bowl and start smashing and keep mashing them up so they really start to break down and turn into like a banana mushy pudding [Music] so we have our mixture here this is rather thin just eggs and bananas you don't want to cook this yet it will be a mess it's only two more ingredients we need to thicken this up to make it a pancake batter so you can use any flour you want to get that result i tend to use a gluten-free flour just to lighten it up since it's breakfast and one of my favorites is oat flour so i'm just going to do a few scoops this is all about consistency here you do not need an exact recipe to make these i encourage you not to use it just go by feel and then we do want to add some baking powder just to give them a rise i found that one teaspoon of baking powder is perfect for about three bananas so just adjust accordingly and we'll start whisking that and we'll see where we're at for me right there that's too thin for a pancake batter so all i'm gonna do is just add another spoonful and a half you'll get better at this over time as you make more of them this is straight up second nature to me at this point i make so many of them all right so that right there perfect we're just looking for that pancake batter consistency so my pan is perfectly preheated at this point and i'll scoop in just about i don't know a glob of oil i'm using coconut oil which is my go-to but i've done it with butter which works great or any type of oil you have in the pantry and just start scooping in pancakes really whatever size you want whatever fits your pan so you can see they've puffed up pretty nicely and that first batch is all about getting the temp right getting the timing right so if they're not perfect totally fine but that's what you're looking for a nice golden brown rust oh that one a little under now these only need about a minute on the other side i'll get them off get another batch in and start banging out pancakes [Music] i don't actually eat pancakes stack this high maybe maybe a four stacker six stacker is a bit aggressive but for the video look at the fluff no wheat flour in there still a nice fluffy pancake it's sweet but not too sweet very nutritious and just satisfying i've been making these for years they've ramped up since i had a kid and i am still not sick of them if these don't change your life just contact me directly send me an email let me know why oh four more that's it so 12 medium pancakes for three bananas and three eggs so we've got that pancake recipe that's your daily all-purpose driver but if you want to treat yourself to a more american style or english style breakfast with the meat the eggs the potatoes but you want to do it under 15 minutes this next breakfast is for you all right so this one you're going to need some where are you where are you where are you oh i already took it out of the fridge we've got some beautiful bacon and you want a bacon with a good bit of fat look at all that good stuff because we're gonna render that out and use it for the potato which are right here potatoes any type we'll do and of course eggs two should be fine for this recipe you know that's a home-grown egg homemade [Music] [Applause] [Music] all right so potatoes in a bowl gonna salt these start that osmosis process so that moisture gets pulled out of potatoes let that go to work for a few minutes in the meantime perfect just a nice low heat on that you can see how it's rendering beautifully and i've got about two minutes for that bacon finishes to just clean up a little bit pull that off perfect turn that heat to very low so this fat doesn't burn i'm gonna take a clean dish towel pop that right into the strainer potatoes and then just strain crucial potato juice all that water out oh yeah so that's a lot of fat in there i'm gonna reserve just a little bit of that to cook the eggs nothing goes to waste this is flavor and a beautiful cooking oil take a look at this nice and dry that's just a ball of dried potatoes right there that's what you want now you could stuff that entire potato thing and make a big pancake at the bottom it's kind of high risk i think a lower risk option is just taking a mason jar lid stuffing it in to make a little hash brown or lava or whatever the hell you want to call it move that that's one it's two and three and just flatten these out a little bit so i just realized something these are cooking right now and if i want to wait on them to fry the eggs we're losing time so if we want this meal done in 15 minutes i'm just gonna poach the eggs in this pot right here luckily i have an induction burner and i'll be ready in like one minute but keep that in mind get the water going before everything if you don't have induction so these are ready to flip and now that i'm not frying my eggs i can use the rest of the bacon fat for the other side oops kind of broke apart fine oh yeah and hash browns my friends just gonna turn that down a little bit while we poach these eggs all right so very gentle simmer here about two tablespoons of vinegar that's apple cider vinegar i'll just pre-crack these real quick give it a swirl right in there come out oh damn it man down man down i don't really have the right instrument here into some ice water maybe round two will be a little better well swell swell all right final leg poaching i think these are perfect let's see underside yeah that's where i want it oh damn that's good i'll grab that poached egg and we will plate it up rip this bacon up into some pieces not the best poached egg i've ever seen but it will do i'm going to hit it with a little bit of this purple sauerkraut that i made totally optional a little bit of chives would be nice as well if i had them this will have a nice tangy kick there you go i mean it doesn't look great but that's gonna taste looking good so now some of you might have noticed that insane thing hanging out in the intro this is the opposite of 15 minutes [Laughter] this is i don't know 72 hours or something like that i was actually missing bannetons so i shoved the entire dough into a loaf pan which i never do and baked it off and for the love of sourdough now you can eat this totally alone this is not a part of this 15-minute meal but i feel like i have to share this with all of you i have to share this with someone this moment of cutting into this thing so this is a sourdough sandwich loaf oh my sweet baby jesus have you ever seen anything like that this is just like one of those you know make it a mess throw it on some bread if you have it i love that poached egg on there because it just soaks into the potatoes that's a bite that's a bite that's all i can say that is a bite oh my god so a few components in that meal you can see i was kind of racing around the kitchen but if you're looking for a good weekend breakfast that's still quick that's your answer now i've got to gather a few ingredients for the next two recipes but in the meantime i wanted to tell you about today's sponsor which is simply safe now i recently bought this house and i was looking for a robust security system that was affordable and also easy to install something that i can install myself and simply safe was the perfect match for my needs you simply go to their website and design the exact system and features you want for your own home security now every system comes with the base hub and the keypad which is the brains of your security then on top of that i picked up a few door sensors some water detectors to warn me about any potential basement leaks a programmable locking system and some indoor and outdoor cameras and setting up the system was a breeze you plug in the main hub stick on the keypad and you're off to the races each additional feature has a tiny button on it that you press to sync it to the main hub which makes it extremely easy with the wireless install i set up one outdoor hd camera to get a nice view of the front of the house and then the other on the side of the house which i might move at some point but right now i'm trying to track down some pesky deer who seem to be using my garden as a salad bar so i'm all up and running and feeling a lot more secure and if any of you out there are looking for a really intuitive and affordable home security system option well simply safe is running their biggest sale of the year where you can get 50 off or more on your home security so check out simplysafe.com pro home cooks below in the description to learn more now let's collect some ingredients starting to get very cold out here for these little chickens chickens are currently malting so they're kind of hibernating right now so i'm not getting too many eggs but i think five should be oh hey five should be good for the last recipe one more thing to get so this fig tree right here was planted years ago i additionally added three more fig trees just the other week so this whole section will just be fig mania but you can see see all these figs coming in i don't know if they'll all ripen but this thing right here i put bags around the ones that are ripening because they'll get destroyed by ants once they get sweet now that is gonna be perfect for the next recipe now sometimes you just wake up and you want something warm to kick start your day especially now that it's getting chilly outside and every cuisine has their own type of porridge just cozy goodness to start the day now my go-to for that meal is oatmeal and we're not talking the overnight oats none of that i'm going to show you how to make fresh cooked oatmeal with these grains right here good old-fashioned rolled oats now for the liquid what i have right here is some homemade almond milk you can use any type of nut milk you can use regular milk you can use water but what i like to do in the beginning of most weeks is some homemade almond milk which is really simple you just soak almonds overnight and then my favorite way to extract the goodness out of them is a masticating style juicer like this but you could give them a nice high-powered blend and then strain off the milk as well and then you have beautiful almond milk for a few days or just buy the store-bought stuff i don't care it's just not as good get your pan on a medium heat i always start with a two to one ratio of milk to oats and then i'll add milk if i need to thin it out so about one and a half cups rolled oats to three cups of liquid i'm not gonna waste all my precious almond milk so i'll do two cups of almond milk one cup of water i like adding bold flavors to my oatmeal so it's not boring but season it however you want i'm gonna do a little orange zest a little bit of the juice also a little bit of ginger and then my favorite oatmeal ingredient of all fresh nutmeg you can just use the same microplane see that oh so good if you don't have any of that around just use cinnamon a little bit of salt is very important not much just a little bit to bring those flavors out and we'll just let that slowly cook and thicken up i'm gonna wait till the end to add my sweetener we've already got a little bubble you can see how much it's thickened up in like a minute i'm gonna turn that down to the lowest setting and let that cook away and in the meantime i will prepare my toppings got some kiwi all right let's see what's going on in this fig slice it up blueberries leftover from the pancake since this is mush a little bit of fresh almond to add some crunch i'll just rough chop these so here's where we're at after about four minutes it looks good i like waiting to add the sweetener and you can use whatever sweetener you like honey maple syrup regular sugar but i find if you add a really good say maple syrup right at the end you just retain actual flavor of the maple syrup rather than it losing its flavor as it cooks down over time now let's give that a taste i could tell right when i did it since i was filming and i just poured the maple syrup in there a little too much maple syrup actually i'll just water it down slightly that could help but sweetening something is just like salting something it's kind of your preference you're basically just seasoning it with sugar so let's see if that water helped a little bit the actual flavoring is unbelievable that orange and nutmeg combo wow but a little less maple would have been great some of that fig in there wow that's some dynamic flavor right there good texture exactly what i wanted just a warm bowl of goodness i feel like with the rise of these other trendy things like overnight oats and chia bowls a lot of people don't know how to make just a good bowl of oatmeal so i wanted to show you that because for me this is a go-to and it's great to have in your arsenal so i've got the perfect final breakfast option for you something i make all the time especially if i have some guests over my house and i need something a little more substantial mastering a frittata not only can a frittata be made in under 15 minutes it's also the best way to clear out your fridge of any ingredients and that's what we're about to do right now i'm using a little six inch pan here with a high lip which is perfect for frittata but something bigger will work fine as well the frittata just might not be as thick and like all of these recipes you got to get that pan preheating immediately to save you some time and while the pans preheating we're going to prep all of the veggies that are going to this frittata so i'm just going to do a quick slice on about half an onion and the same thing i've got a leftover pepper in the fridge and i'll just slice that up nice and thin so i'm going to get a good bit of olive oil in my pan i'll dump in my veggies start frying those off and while those are frying i'll work on my final veggie which is some mushroom but again very customizable use what you have this works great with spinach you could throw in some broccoli in there you could even throw in some sweet potatoes picking the perfect amount of eggs is a bit of a guesstimate you kind of learn over time what ratios makes the perfect frittata i only have five eggs because the chickens are going into a bit of a hibernation so that's gonna have to do but i think it should be fine actually what i'm gonna do for that almond milk from before and of course use any milk product about a quarter cup of that we're not making a quiche so it's not like half and half just a little bit all right so you can see how nice these have cooked down in just about five minutes tiny bit more salt to season those mushrooms now by far the most important thing you see all that oil residual oil in the bottom of the pan we want that your pan can not be dry or it will stick i'm even just gonna add a little bit more i know it seems like a lot but this is just the one dish you cannot skimp on oil you don't want a sticking free tata let me dump i'll turn this down just a little bit now what i like doing is just kind of pushing out the sides just like an omelette just to get it going and then once you do that trust the crust two more ingredients some chopped parsley sprinkle that right on top and some cheese i've got some cheddar here any melting cheese will work feta is great as well just create that right on top let those chunks just kind of fall in there now this is where technique comes into play we've got that flame on just the medium low heat slowly building a crust on the bottom that is direct heat from the bottom now this is gooey up here uncooked egg that's why once we've developed the crust on the bottom i'm gonna throw it in the broiler develop a crust from the top and cook it through it might take a few times to really get it perfect i've made this dish hundreds of times but you will at some point now check this out if i just peel away because i use that oil and i trust the crust you can see the browning in there happening brownish so now at this point we're going over to the broiler open we're preheated let that broil for about two to three minutes depending on how hot your broiler is all right let's check it out wow brown bubbly it puffed up a little bit here we go let's let it cool right here now one thing that's not really 15 minutes about this dish is the cooling time you could eat that right now or you know in a minute when it cools down a bit but if you want to make sure this thing slips right out on the cutting board unscathed you've got to let it set a bit and just cool down for i don't know five minutes at least so i'll clean up and hopefully we've got a golden frittata see look at this it's already kind of slipping away easily you can flip it out or just kind of pull it pretty clean pan trust the crust pizza pie moist completely filled with veggies even veggie action right there i hate to say it but i think that's a handheld action not for pizza bottom crust oh my god that one came out good to be honest i so rarely make omelets because i think this right here you don't have to make three four omelets for everyone you just make one breakfast pizza it's fluffy it's tender i mean it's perfect there's not really too much more to say about it so that's it that's my top four at least my first four i definitely have a few more just like the dinners want to see more quick 15-minute breakfast hit me up down in the comments i'll come in with four more thanks again to simplisafe for sponsoring this video and click
