12. Breakfast Sundae
Creamy yogurt, layered with granola and fresh fruit, this sundae is perfect for when you want something healthy but scrumptious. Loaded with protein, energy-boosting nuts, and nutritious fruits, it’s a great way to start the day. But don’t worry, this fun sundae isn’t entirely healthy. A sprinkling of chocolate chips and a spoonful of rainbow sprinkles will help get the party started.

14. Birthday Cake Banana Bread
This incredible gluten-free banana bread is all dressed up and ready to party. Made with oat flour and sweetened with maple syrup, it’s a healthier version of the traditional cake. It’s also much more festive, thanks to a generous sprinkling of rainbow Funfetti.
15. Crepe Cake
If you’re hosting an elegant birthday brunch, serve this beautiful crepe cake to wow your guests. It’s a towering layer cake dusted with sugar and topped with fresh berries. The layers are made from stacked crepes, sandwiched together with a sweet cream cheese frosting. The beauty of this breakfast is that it’s both light and rich. The delicately thin crepes are the perfect vehicle for the gooey, dreamy frosting. One slice of this and you’ll be in birthday heaven!
16. Pancake Mix Muffins
What’s the difference between pancake muffins and regular muffins? It’s the texture. These aren’t as dense and crumbly as standard muffins. They’re moist, light, and sweet – just like a stack of pancakes! You can dress them up however you want. Add nuts, chocolate chips, sprinkles, or your favorite candy. Anything goes with these fun party treats.
17. Strawberry Shortcake
This juicy strawberry shortcake is the perfect summer birthday breakfast. Skip making the biscuits from scratch and use Bisquick biscuit mix for flaky pastries without the work. Bake until fluffy and golden then pile with whipped cream and fresh berries. Sweet and tangy, this is a brunch favorite that’ll put you in the birthday mood.
18. Fruity Pebbles Parfait
Make your kid’s birthday go with a bang with these funky pebble parfaits. They’re the perfect DIY breakfast, made simply by layering your favorite sundae foods. This recipe features creamy yogurt, banana slices, and a crunchy topping of Fruity Pebbles. But you can easily adapt it for picky kids – adding chocolate chips, nuts, or butterscotch sauce.
19. Cream Cheese Coffee Cake
This is a buttery, moist cake perfect for any time of day but especially welcome at breakfast. Served warm, with a dab of butter, it’s a cozy, comforting treat. The cake is made with a sour cream batter, giving it a beautifully airy texture. It’s topped with a pecan and brown sugar cream cheese crumb. Bite into this, and you’ll get a melt-in-the-mouth cake, along with lumps of buttery, nutty crumb. Just the thought of it makes my mouth water.
20. Blueberry Buckle
A buckle is a rich dessert made from cake batter that rises (or ‘buckles’) around hearty chunks of fresh fruit. In this birthday buckle, tangy blueberries bake in the batter, releasing all their yummy fruity juices. It’s topped with a streusel-like crumb, providing even more buttery flavor. Enjoy this one warm with a generous helping of whipped cream. If the birthday boy/girl prefers raspberries to blueberries, swap them in. This dessert works with anything – apples, rhubarb, strawberries. Don’t be afraid to get fruity!
21. Apple Crisp
Rustic and comforting, this old-fashioned crisp is the perfect breakfast comfort food for winter birthdays. Soft, juicy chunks of baked apples nestle underneath a buttery, nutty, crunchy crumb, flavored with warming spices. I love this with custard, but if that sounds like too much for breakfast just go with cream or a scoop of yogurt. Click on a star to rate it!
