Moringa Breakfast Recipes

Breakfast foods are an easy place to use moringa powder because yoghurt, fruit, oats and warm spices naturally help balance its earthy flavour.

4) Moringa Chia Pudding

Chia pudding is an easy make-ahead breakfast, and the creamy texture gives moringa powder plenty of time to disperse through the mixture.

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp Chia seeds
• 1 tbsp Flax seeds
• 1 tbsp Hemp seeds
• 1 tsp Moringa Powder
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Almond milk 
• 1 tsp Honey or maple syrup 
• 1/4 cup Coconut Yogurt
• Fresh Berries, to serve

Instructions

1. Whisk Moringa powder with 1 tbsp of hot water. (*see note)
2. Whisk together Moringa milk, chia seeds, flax seeds, hemp seeds, milk, vanilla extract and honey in a bowl or jar. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour(best overnight).
3. After the seeds absorb the milk, use a spoon to stir again and combine well.
4. In a bowl or cup place a layer of chia pudding mixture, followed by coconut yogurt and berries, and repeat the process until the cup is full.
5. Top with berries to serve. You can also sprinkle some Moringa powder on top. Enjoy 🙂

Notes: You can skip the first step by adding the Moringa powder together with other seeds. However, the powder might not be very well combined at first. Once the chia seeds absorb the milk, you can mix them well with a spoon. 

5) Moringa Pancakes

Moringa powder gives pancakes a natural green colour and a mild earthy flavour that works well with yoghurt, berries, honey or lemon.

Ingredients

• 1 cup self-raising flour
• 1 tablespoon moringa powder
• 1 cup milk (any kind)
• 1 egg
• Butter or oil for cooking
• Natural yogurt or thickened cream, to serve
• Fresh berries, to serve
• Honey or lemon juice, to serve

Instructions

1. Combine the flour and moringa powder in a bowl.
2. Add the egg and milk and mix until just combined.
3. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat with a little butter or oil.
4. Cook small ladles of batter for about 2 minutes, or until bubbles appear, then flip and cook the other side.
5. Serve with yoghurt, berries and honey or lemon if desired.

Tip: Do not overmix the batter. A slightly lumpy batter usually gives a softer pancake.

6) Moringa Breakfast Bowls

Moringa can be stirred into oats, porridge, muesli or granola rather than needing a separate recipe every time.

Breakfast Cereal or Granola

• Method: Sprinkle a half to one teaspoon of moringa powder over your bowl of cereal or granola after you have added your milk (dairy or plant-based). Stir well to distribute the powder evenly.
• Tip: Moringa pairs well with cereals that have a milder flavour, allowing the taste of moringa to shine without overpowering.

Oats/Oatmeal

• Method: For cooked oatmeal, add moringa powder during the last minute of cooking. 
• Tip: If you enjoy sweet oatmeal, combine moringa with sweeteners like honey or maple syrup, or add fruits like banana or apple to complement its earthy flavour.

Muesli

• Method: Stir moringa powder into your muesli mix before adding your milk or yogurt.
• Tip: Since muesli often contains nuts, seeds, and dried fruits, these flavours complement the natural taste of moringa well.

Porridge

• Method: Add moringa powder to any grain-based porridge as it cooks, or sprinkle it on top just before serving.
• Tip: Moringa works especially well in porridge when combined with cinnamon, nutmeg, or vanilla extract to enhance the overall flavour profile.

General Tips for Using Moringa Powder

• Start with a small amount, about a half teaspoon, and adjust according to your taste preferences and the serving size of your meal.
• Using moringa powder in your breakfast is an easy, efficient way to increase your intake of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, contributing to a healthier start to your day.
  

Moringa Drinks & Latte Recipes

Moringa powder also works well in simple drinks, especially when paired with citrus, ginger, cinnamon or creamy plant-based milk. Because the powder has an earthy flavour and does not fully dissolve, whisking, frothing or shaking usually gives the best result.

7) Creamy Moringa Latte

This creamy moringa latte is a simple caffeine-free herbal drink. Oat milk, honey and cinnamon help soften moringa’s earthy green flavour.
