01of 21Blistered Cherry Tomato & Fried Egg ToastPhotographer: Jen Causey, Food Stylist: Jennifer Wendorf, Prop Stylist: Priscilla MontielThis recipe is one that our recipe developers turn to quite often. Cherry tomatoes are reliably sweet and readily available year-round. If you don’t have ricotta cheese, you can swap in cottage cheese, Greek yogurt or mascarpone. While we favor runny yolks and like how they coat the toast and tomatoes, hard yolks are just fine too. Simply cook the eggs a minute or two longer.View Recipe

03of 21Chocolate-Coconut Breakfast Banana SplitCarson DowningEating dessert for breakfast has never been easier, thanks to this twist on a classic banana split. We swap in strained yogurt (e.g., Greek-style or skyr) for ice cream, but you’ll still get the same ice-cream-scoop look because the yogurt’s thicker consistency helps it hold its shape well. Plus, strained yogurt has more protein for staying power. Pineapple and coconut give this banana split tropical vibes.View Recipe
