Ingredients (Serves 2-4)

🥩 500g protein of choice (turkey mince, shredded chicken, beef mince, pulled pork, or kangaroo mince)
🎃 2 cups butternut pumpkin (grated)
🌿 3 cups spinach leaves
🥚 4-6 eggs (adjust based on servings)
🥑 1 avocado (sliced)
🌱 Chopped chives or parsley (for garnish)
How to Make a Perfect One-Pan Breakfast
1. Heat the Pan
Add avocado oil to a large frypan over medium heat. Sauté the chopped red onion until soft and translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute, stirring frequently.
2. Cook the Protein
Add your choice of meat to the pan. Cook until it’s browned or heated through, about 5-10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
3. Add the Vegetables
Stir in grated butternut pumpkin and fresh spinach leaves. Cook for 3-5 minutes, allowing the veggies to soften and the flavors to blend.
4. Make Egg Pockets
Use a spoon to create small wells in the mixture. Carefully crack an egg into each pocket, keeping them evenly spaced.
5. Cook to Perfection
Let everything cook for about 5 minutes until the eggs reach your desired doneness. For medium-runny yolks, keep an eye on the timing. If you prefer firmer eggs, cook a little longer.
6. Garnish & Serve
Top with sliced avocado and fresh herbs like chives or parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy this wholesome, one-pan breakfast delight!

For extra richness, this recipe uses macadamia nut oil, but you can substitute coconut oil, olive oil, or even butter. Stored in the fridge, it stays fresh for up to a week.
Let’s dive into why this bread is not only delicious but also nutritious.
Why This Bread Is Good for You
- Apples – High in fiber (about 5g per apple), they support digestion, help lower cholesterol, and keep blood sugar stable.
- Spelt Flour – An ancient grain with lower gluten content, making it easier to digest. It also provides more protein and amino acids than regular wheat flour.
- Cinnamon – Helps balance blood sugar levels and supports healthy metabolism.
Now, let’s get baking!
Apple and Cinnamon Bread Recipe
Ingredients
- 450g (3 cups) grated red apple (Fuji, Golden Delicious, or similar)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- 3 eggs (see vegan option below)
- ¼ cup (60ml) macadamia nut oil (or coconut oil, olive oil, or butter)
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or extract
- 2 cups (260g) wholemeal spelt flour (see gluten-free option below)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- In a large bowl, mix grated apple, baking powder, salt, eggs, oil, cinnamon, and vanilla until well combined.
- Gently fold in the wholemeal spelt flour, mixing just until combined.
- Line a loaf tin (10.5cm x 26cm) with baking paper.
- Pour the batter into the tin. Optionally, garnish with sliced apple and a sprinkle of cinnamon or coconut sugar for extra flavor.
- Bake for 1 hour, checking after 45 minutes. If the top browns too quickly, cover with foil.
- Cool for 1 hour before slicing.
Optional Add-Ins & Serving Ideas
For extra crunch – Fold in ½ cup chopped walnuts or sprinkle them on top before baking.
Serving suggestions:
- Enjoy plain and simple
- Spread with macadamia nut butter or almond butter
Vegan & Gluten-Free Options
Vegan Version: Omit eggs and replace with:
- 60ml (¼ cup) plant-based milk (almond, oat, coconut, or rice)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds (note: this will result in a denser loaf)
Gluten-Free Version: Swap spelt flour for:
- 2 cups (200g) almond meal
