I recently shared some of my favorite freezer friendly dinner recipes. Today we are talking all about make ahead and freezer friendly breakfast recipes!
Breakfast is an important meal of the day. We need to send our kids off to school and head off to work with a meal that will start the day right.
Mornings however can be crazy. Having breakfast ready to just reheat and eat makes those busy mornings easier.
It is so easy to make a big batch of breakfast on the weekend or make breakfast ahead and freeze it. Keeping breakfast foods in the freezer is one of my favorite ways to make mornings easier.
All the recipes below work well for making on the weekend and reheating throughout the week, but they also freeze great. It doesn’t matter if you freeze it or just make it ahead to use over several days, having breakfast made ahead makes mornings so much easier!

Hey Lynn! Love the inspiration here these days! My favorite homemade freezer items for breakfast are definitely waffles and french toast. I prefer them re-toasted anyway in the toaster than first time around because they are so much crispier. Even now that its just my hubby and me, I still keep those things in the freezer for toasting, for breakfast or for supper. So much better homemade! I tend to also keep extra muffins and quick breads (banana bread, pumpkin bread, zucchini bread) in the freezer for breakfast as well as frozen homemade (unbaked) cinnamon rolls and homemade (unbaked) biscuits.. The biggest problem is that we have been stocking up lately and now I can’t remember what all I have in there. I need to inventory and at least make a list!
Take care and have a great week!
All of those are great freezer foods! I have tried keeping freezer inventories, but I was never very good at keeping it updated. I need to get better at it as well. I have found a few things in my freezer recently that were several years old… a freezer inventory would have prevented that.
