ARE you a family that is raring to go of a morning?
When it comes to brekkie, these freezer-friendly bakes will save you time and money.
Whip up a batch of these simple delights, freeze and dish out when they are needed.
OAT-ALLY GREAT: Oaty, chewy homemade flapjacks are a brilliant freezer brekkie.
Whizz up oats, peanut butter and honey, press into a tray and bake. Slice into bars and freeze between baking paper.
When you want to eat them, pop them in the microwave for just ten seconds.
BURRIT-WOAH: Scrambled eggs, beans and cheese wrapped in tortilla wraps will make the ultimate handheld breakfast.
Wrap individually in foil before freezing as this will help when you come to cook them.
Then, take them out of the freezer when you need them and after only a few minutes in the oven, they will be delicious.
ROLL WITH IT: Upgrade the petrol station pasty with this homemade version.
Use cooked pork mince or lentils with any leftover veg and once your mixture has cooled, wrap in shortcut puff-pastry pasty portions.
Bake for 15 mins, then freeze. They will crisp up in 15 minutes straight from frozen and they are perfect for lunchboxes if you need an extra meal this week.
COOKIE CRUMBLE: Oat and banana bakes are similar to the likes of Belvita biscuits without the price tag.
Mash bananas with oats, cinnamon and chocolate chips. Scoop on to trays, bake and freeze.
They’re naturally sweet, packed with fibre and should thaw by the time you reach work or the school gates.
BATCH A PLAN: Dedicate half an hour a week to doing some batch-baking.
With these staples in your freezer, your mornings should be easier, plus, no more last-minute expensive brekkie buys on your way to work.
