But here we have some delicious recipes bursting with warming fall flavours to spice up your breakfast this Autumn.

Drizzle organic honey, maple syrup or sprinkle some demerara sugar on top and enjoy!

2. Banana Bread Pumpkin Muffins

This banana bread pumpkin muffin recipe is so interesting and combines our two favourite things- banana bread and pumpkin muffins into something wonderfully unique! You can mix it up and make the recipe your own by adding some chocolate chips, slices of pecan nuts, crunchy oats or blueberries. This is a great way to use some overripe bananas or any other fruit lying around too! It’s a pretty versatile recipe so you can pretty much add whatever you like to it to make it your own.

6. Sweet-Savoury Pumpkin Muffin

This versatile recipe can be used as a breakfast meal, quick snack, part of your lunch or even alongside some soup. Dollop some cream cheese, eat with cheese or melted butter. This recipe is unique and uses yoghurt and vegetable oil instead of milk/butter which makes for a light batter and an even lighter muffin! While the rosemary is an interesting addition, leave this out if you’re not a fan. The honey sweetens the muffins but not overly so, and can also be substituted for maple syrup for a deeper flavour.
