Easy Breakfast Recipes for Your Next RV Trip

How Tos & Tips

There’s nothing better than starting an adventure-filled day with a delicious breakfast. Fortunately, one of the best perks of RVing is having the ability to whip up your most important meal of the day right from your rig (or campfire)!

Whether you crave something hearty in the mornings like eggs and bacon, enjoy grab-and-go meals like breakfast sammys, or wake up with a sweet tooth and a hankering for a tasty treat like a warm cinnamon bun, this list of easy breakfast recipes is sure to please!

Light Breakfasts

If you have lots of activities planned for the day, you’re probably not going to want a huge breakfast. Here are some of our favorite camping breakfasts on the lighter side:

Omelette in a Bag

This is the perfect breakfast when you are feeding a group of picky eaters (aka kids). All you need is some zip-lock bags and a pot of water. Use your campfire or stovetop to cook these one-of-a-kind, customized omelets.

What you will need:
Each person gets a zip lock bag. Into the bag, add 2 eggs, 1 teaspoon of water, and their choice of fillings including:

  • 2 tablespoons of cheese
  • 1 tablespoon onion or bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup of pre-cooked breakfast meat (ham, bacon, chorizo or chicken)
  • Salt and pepper
  • Fresh basil
  • Fresh rosemary
  • Chili flakes

What To Do:

  1. Bring a pot of water to a rolling bowl.
  2. Have each person mix their eggs and water into the bag and shake it up to blend.
  3. Add the toppings of choice and seal (make sure to get the excess air out of the bag).
  4. Squish and mix.
  5. Place the baggie into the boiling water and swish it around in the pot from time to time.
  6. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes. Keep your eye on them to determine when they are done.
  7. Remove from the water and carefully open the bag. Slip onto a plate, eat, and enjoy! These are light, fluffy, and oh-so-easy.

Overnight Apple Pie Oatmeal

This is a healthy breakfast treat that can easily be prepared the night before in your slow cooker. The key is spraying your slow cooker with oil before you begin. Make sure it is thickly covered or the oatmeal will really stick.

If the weather’s good, set up your slow cooker on the picnic table outside. Plug it into an extension cord and let it cook outside. In the morning, give everyone a bowl and open the pot. TA-DAH! Breakfast is served. NOTE: This oatmeal will be HOT. Give it time to cool or you may burn the roof of your mouth.

What You Will Need:

  • 2 apples, peeled, cored, and diced into small chunks
  • 1 1/2 cups of coconut milk
  • 1 1/2 cups of water
  • 1 cup steel-cut oats
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/3 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

What To Do:

  1. Oil the inside of your slow cooker and add all the ingredients except the brown sugar and cinnamon.
  2. Cook on low for 5-7 hours. Use your timer if necessary and have the slow cooker turn itself on when needed.

IMPORTANT: This recipe is designed for steel-cut oats because they work well in crock pots. You can adjust the flavors, add-ins, or fruits you mix with this recipe. If you want to be sure of a big success, test this recipe in your own slow cooker prior to camping. Slow cookers vary, and you’ll want to make sure you know just how long to cook breakfast in your pot.

Gluten-Free Protein Muffins

Are you gluten intolerant? We’ve got your back. This recipe is the perfect easy breakfast and you can make it ahead of time.

What You Will Need:

  • 1 2/3 cups oat bran
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (your choice of protein base – I like rice)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/8 teaspoon cloves
  • 2/3 cup of canned pumpkin (non-spiced)
  • 1/2 cup of applesauce
  • 1/2 cup nonfat vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 2 Tb egg white substitute
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips or nuts (your choice)

What To Do:

  1. Spray your muffin tin or add paper liners.
  2. Heat your oven to 400 degrees
  3. Mix the pumpkin, applesauce, yogurt, egg whites, and syrup together.  Make sure it’s smooth.
  4. Mix oat bran, protein powder, baking soda, and spices together in a separate bowl.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and slowly mix and combine.
  6. Give the batter time to rest.  5 minutes should do the trick.  During this time, the batter will thicken.
  7. Fill muffin cups to 3/4 full and bake for 18-20 minutes.  Check the center to make sure they are done.
  8. Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cook in the tins for 10 minutes.
  9. Serve hot and fresh as a delicious RVing breakfast, or take them with you for an early morning hike!

Cereal and Toast

You were expecting something else? The truth is that cereal and toast make a super easy RV breakfast. For a fun change, why not buy the mini cereal variety packs. Your family can choose a cereal they have always wanted to try!

Also, toast doesn’t have to be boring! Choose apple or cinnamon bread, or order a toast stamper to convey a cheery message like “Good Morning” or “I love you.”  You can also add your own message by toasting bread and writing a message with a chopstick while the toast is hot!

Breakfast Quiche On The Go

These can be baked and frozen ahead of time, or you can make the mix the night before and bake them up fresh in the morning. This recipe does not use a shell but you can purchase tiny pillow shells pre-made in the dessert section of your grocery freezer. If you plan to use a shell, these quiches will look like mini tarts.

What You Will Need:

  • A mini muffin pan and spray oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped green pepper and red pepper
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1/2 pound breakfast sausage.
  • 6 eggs, whisked

 What To Do:

  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees and spray your muffin pan.
  2. Cook breakfast sausage in a skillet and when nearly done, sauté the onion and peppers in the same pan. You want the sausage crisp, and the onion & peppers soft.
  3. Whip your eggs in a bowl and add the salt and pepper. I like to toss in a bit of basil or Italian seasoning as well.
  4. Add shredded cheese of your choice to the egg mixture.
  5. Let the meat and peppers cool a bit and then spoon them into the bottom of the muffin tins.
  6. Cover the meat mixture with the egg mixture. Only fill them to half full.
  7. Carefully transfer into the oven and cook for 10 minutes or less. Check the center with a toothpick to ensure the eggs are fully cooked.
  8. You can cook these in full-size muffin tins but it will take at least 20 minutes. Adjust time accordingly.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool a bit before serving.  These are great with fresh fruit or pancakes

Sweets
