Rich eggs Benedict, crisp waffles, juicy fruit salad and coffee flowing like the Mississippi are the key to opening your eyes with joy in the morning. And these joys should not be off the menu if you or a beloved breakfast-mate keep gluten-free. Here, we’ve rounded up breakfast classics that scratch all the itches, with no gluten in sight (but always check the labels on your ingredients if you are unsure!). So, get that coffee brewing, grab the paper, and enjoy.

The perfect recipe to get you started? This hearty country omelet.
