Mornings are easier when breakfast actually keeps you full.

These are the 23 high-fiber breakfast recipes we rely on most at home when we want something quick, made from pantry staples, and filling enough to get us through the morning without snacking an hour later.

High-fiber breakfast that keeps you full, made with oats, banana, and nuts.

Theyโ€™re built around naturally fiber-rich ingredients like oats, fruit, nuts, seeds, whole grains, and beans โ€” foods that add texture, flavor, and staying power without complicated prep.

Louise and I develop plant-forward recipes for a living, and over the years weโ€™ve tested countless breakfasts to see what truly works for real routines. This is the list we come back to, whether weโ€™re meal-prepping for the week or pulling something together on a busy morning.

Youโ€™ll find no-cook options, make-ahead baked goods, pancakes, and savory breakfasts โ€” all designed to help you start the day feeling satisfied, not hungry halfway through it.

How much fiber should a high-fiber breakfast have?

A filling, high-fiber breakfast usually contains around 8โ€“12 grams of fiber. In everyday terms, that amount helps slow digestion, supports steadier energy, and often means fewer cravings before lunch compared to low-fiber breakfasts.

You donโ€™t need special ingredients or complicated recipes to reach that range. Most fiber-rich breakfasts simply combine a few whole foods that already work well together.

Common high-fiber breakfast ingredients include:

  • Oats and rolled oats
  • Chia seeds and flaxseed
  • Berries, apples, pears, and bananas
  • Nuts and seeds
  • Whole-grain bread or tortillas
  • Chickpeas, lentils, and white beans (especially for savory breakfasts)

The recipes below use these ingredients in practical, flexible ways โ€” so breakfast feels easy to make and genuinely satisfying to eat.
