Start your morning with the warm and cozy flavors of autumn with these healthy breakfast ideas that are perfect for the season.

1.) Protein pumpkin oatmeal pancakes

Pumpkins are always in abundance during this time of the year. What better way to start your day by incorporating seasonal produce in your breakfast? This recipe from Muy Delish promises healthy and delicious pancakes packed with protein to help you jumpstart those too-lazy-to-get-out-of-bed mornings.

2.) Sweet potato apple hash

What can be more autumn-y than sweet potatoes and apples together? This recipe from Holly's Helpings definitely captures the essence of fall in breakfast. Instead of greasy breakfast hash, you'll be delighted to know that this recipe is made instead with healthier sweet potatoes. If you have leftovers from last night's meal, you're free to add it in as well.

3.) Skinny pumpkin breakfast parfait

For those who like to indulge in sweets during early mornings but don't necessarily want to deal with its consequences, you should try out this recipe from The Skinny Fork. If you're not too keen for the overused berries, try pumpkin puree instead along with the other ingredients that go together nicely that this recipe calls for.

4.) Roasted pumpkin and goat cheese frittata with arugula salad

Start your day by eating fresh greens with your eggs. This baked recipe from Naturally Ella will give you your much needed organic vitamin boost to get you through the day. If you're out of pumpkin, you can substitute sweet potatoes or butternut squash instead.

5.) Butternut squash, arugula and bacon quiche

Here's another egg dish (with bacon) that you can certainly enjoy in the mornings. This recipe from Gimme Some Oven states that this quiche is more of a treat than a breakfast. If you'd like to make it dairy-free, you can leave out the cheese. If you'd like to reduce bacon consumption, you can opt for the healthier turkey bacon instead as well.

6.) Fall spice vegan donuts

Donuts for breakfast? Don't mind if we do. This recipe from House Vegan is quick to make, light, and most importantly, vegan. The donuts are only lightly seasoned with cinnamon and nutmeg and are perfect to bring on the go for when you are heading to school or work.

7.) Fall oatmeal power bowl

If you need to rack up on proteins and fiber so you can scale the challenges of the day ahead, then this recipe from Lunchbox Bunch is perfect. The combination of apples, oats, bananas, chia seeds and cinnamon truly make this a delectable and healthy breakfast meal.

8.) Ham, apple and sweet potato scramble

Eggs are the always go-to breakfast foods. If you're willing to spice it up, this scrambled egg recipe from Paleo Newbie shows a new way of scrambling eggs, adding peeled and diced apples! If that doesn't weird you out, you're welcome to try out this recipe.
