5 gut-healthy baked goods to bake tonight and devour tomorrow morning

Gluten-free drop biscuits

Ready in under 30 minutes, these drop biscuits are a quick, cute, and delicious option—especially if you’ve had to skip out on biscuits due to dietary restrictions. “Gluten isn’t tolerated by everyone!” says Supriya Lal, RD, MPH, a dietitian in New York City. “Also great for those who are vegan and sensitive to dairy products.”

FYI, if you’re not allergic or sensitive to gluten, cutting it out completely may actually be unfriendly to your gut. According to Amy Shapiro, MS, RD, CDN, founder and director of Real Nutrition, avoiding gluten completely when you don’t need to can lead to hunger and constipation, among other problems.

If you’re looking for a way to switch up your usual oatmeal breakfast, look no further. Besides rolled oats (obviously), these cakes are made with a bit of mashed banana, chia seeds, vanilla, almond milk, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt, then topped with raspberries.

“Raspberries are a strong source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C,” Lal says. “They are also a source of fiber.”

Other than the fiber from the raspberries (and oats and banana) improving digestion, how is this recipe gut-healthy, you may ask? According to a 2019 study in Redox Biology, vitamin C can restore gut-liver functions. Pretty cool, right?

If you’re looking for a more protein-rich, savory option, these Starbucks-esque egg bites may be the way to go. Also taking about 30 minutes to make, they contain a mix of veggies, spices, chicken bacon, and optional cottage cheese.

“Eggs are high in protein and a dense source of morning nutrition,” Lal says. Eggs can also help if you experience the diarrhea-dominant type of irritable bowel syndrome. Other than that, eggs have additional benefits. “They are full of vitamins and minerals, along with cholesterol, which is a beneficial element to our cells,” Lal adds.

Blueberry crumble

Other than the clear taste factor, this blueberry crumble is one to try because of its unignorable health benefits. “Blueberries are full of rich antioxidants and vitamins, including but not limited to vitamin C,” Lal says. “They are also a great source of fiber.”

Further, when it comes to the benefits of blueberries, they’re also heart-healthy, can boost mood and brain health, and reduce inflammation.

Created by dietitian and chef Nicole Addison, RD, this specific crumble is also a gluten-free breakfast option. Side note: If blueberries aren’t your thing—or you want to switch it up—other berries will also work!

Air fryer banana fritters

Have 30 minutes to whip this up for breakfast? If so, pull out your air fryers! These yummy banana fritters are packed with nutrients. “Bananas are a great source of potassium as well as carry a high amount of fiber,” Lal says. (Aka, bananas are great if you’re backed up!)

The fritters also contain probiotic-rich Greek yogurt. (A quick refresher on probiotics: They improve digestion, reduce inflammation, and more, according to Erin Kenney, MS, RD, LDN, CPT.) It’s a win-win!
