This simple cinnamon roll casserole includes a creamy egg custard…I can’t think of anything better to wake up to!
Bacon Swiss Frittata
Frittatas are another fantastic slow cooker breakfast option. You don’t have to worry about any finicky crust while you still get that egg-custard filling that’s packed with the likes of bacon, Swiss cheese and spinach.
This is a winner for Sunday breakfast or brunch as well as easy and relaxed dinners.

Slow Cooker Vanilla Coconut Granola
Granola is definitely a popular breakfast option, but did you know that most commercial granolas are loaded with high amounts of sugar? This Slow Cooker Vanilla Coconut Granola will quickly have you opting to make your very own from the comfort of your kitchen with no-fuss and maximum reward.
This granola recipe is gluten-free, vegan, and allergy-free! Enjoy it as a healthy breakfast or snack that you won’t need to feel guilty about.
Easy Crockpot Leftover Ham and Potato Hash
If you’ve ever wondered how to best use that leftover ham after holiday celebrations then why not try this Easy Crockpot Leftover Ham and Potato Hash?
I love nothing more than making additional tasty meals for the family with leftover ingredients since I hate wastage (not to mention that it saves a ton of time using leftovers than cooking from scratch). This recipe is also a sneaky-good way to add in some extra veggies into your family’s diet (where are you, shredded zucchini?!).
Crockpot Zucchini Bread
If you’re following a low-carb or keto diet then this Crockpot Zucchini bread is a calorie-friendly alternative to other high carb breakfast breads.
It’s a yummy moist bread that can be enjoyed fresh from the crockpot or toasted to be served with eggs and bacon.

When the air is crisp and the season calls for all things pumpkin, this is my go-to hot beverage that I love waking up to. To be honest, though…I do tend to make this delicious Pumpkin Latte throughout the year and why not, right?!
The Best Slow Cooker Coffee Cake Recipe
If coffee is something closely associated with starting a new day then I see no reason why this Slow Cooker Coffee Cake recipe should be left off the list of Crockpot breakfast ideas!
Similar to a dump cake, this coffee cake is ideal for busy mornings when you’re in the mood for something extra indulgent without fuss or effort.

This Crockpot Pumpkin Bread Pudding is another fall-favorite! It’s loaded with pecans and is super creamy from the use of pumpkin puree. Serve it warm from the slow cooker on those chilly mornings.
Cheesy Kielbasa Breakfast Hash
Kielbasa (or Polish for “sausage”) is a hearty slow cooker breakfast option that only requires 7 simple ingredients including breakfast favorites such as: cheese, sausage, and potato. While kielbasa comes in beef, pork, chicken or a blend, I suggest sticking to beef as a healthier option.
