Breakfast Recipes for Detoxifiber by Garden of Life

You've probably read lots of good things about fiber. It cuts your risk of heart disease, promotes healthy gut function, reduces your risk of gastrointestinal diseases, helps your liver do its job, and so on. And if you've ever tried to take your daily fiber serving in a tiny glass of water, or even by itself, you may have sworn that you didn’t care what happened to your liver! There's an easy way to have it both ways, though. Garden of Life DetoxiFiber doesn’t degrade under heat or by mixing, so why not incorporate it into a yummy recipe? Breakfast is the best time of the day for taking fiber, to allow your digestive system to process it while you’re awake -- here are some recipe ideas for next time you take your Garden of Life Detoxifiber.

Homemade muesli

There are a ton of homemade muesli recipes on the internet, and you'll need to find one that suits you. If your muesli recipe calls for seeds (sesame, sunflower and pumpkin seeds are common) you can omit these and replace with Garden of Life Detoxifiber. Alternatively, add a small amount of Detoxifiber on top of the other ingredients -- just experiment to make sure it doesn't get too gluggy.

Whole wheat pancakes

You might already have a favorite pancake recipe, or you might like to try out variations like chocolate pancakes, banana lemon pancakes, French pancakes, and so on. You can add Detoxifiber to any of these recipes -- the ones that basically require chucking all the ingredients together will handle your Garden of Life Detoxifiber best. If you prefer, you can add the Detoxifiber to your maple syrup, or blend it in equal amounts with sugar and drizzle lemon juice over the top.

Banana bread

Bananas have plenty of natural fiber anyway -- the thick, rich taste of Detoxifiber won’t be amiss in this recipe. Everybody has a favorite, and each is equally easy to prepare. Simply replace a quantity of the flour with your fiber powder -- make sure it is blended into the flour before you add the other ingredients, otherwise you may end up with little fiber pockets in your bread!

Granola breakfast bars

If you’re the sort of person that values sleep more than anything in the world (especially when the sun is just coming up), breakfast bars are probably a staple for you. You can make enormous batches of these and freeze them -- they are quite freezer friendly. You'll often find that they don’t take much defrosting either -- the honey keeps everything relatively stable. Many recipes call for flour, and here you can substitute Garden of Life Detoxifiber; for recipes that don’t use flour, simply add a small amount to the mix after you've added wet ingredients.
