3 Vegan Breakfast Recipes To Try

Want to add more plant-based foods to your diet? If you haven’t yet come across The Coconut Collaborative, you’re seriously missing out. So in a bid to get you enjoying their dreamy dairy-free yogurts, we spent our Sunday afternoon in the kitchen and pulled together three brilliantly easy and exceptionally delicious breakfast recipes, that even the least skilled cook could carry out...
CREATED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH COCONUT COLLABORATIVE

Did you know dairy milk requires four times more land than its plant-based counterparts? Plus, producing plant-based drinks uses 80% less water and emits 60% less C02 than dairy. If those stats aren’t enough to impress you, we can assure you the taste will – The Coconut Collaborative’s range of coconut-based vegan yogurts, ice creams and deserts are all far creamier and more delicious than their dairy counterparts (plus they’re helping save the planet, too).

Here are three breakfast recipes to try at home this weekend…

1. Vegan Banana Pancakes
