5 Easy Ways to Use Olive Oil at Breakfast

Most people think of olive oil for dinner.

Salads. Pasta. Roasted vegetables.

But using olive oil at breakfast changes the mood a little.

If you cook in the morning — even something simple — here are five ways to use olive oil at breakfast that make everything taste just a little more intentional.


1. Blood Orange Olive Oil in Waffles, Pancakes, Muffins, or Scones

Instead of butter or vegetable oil, use Blood Orange Olive Oil in the batter.

Waffles. Pancakes. Muffins. Scones.

The orange flavor bakes right in. It’s not overpowering — just fresh and bright.

It turns something ordinary into something slightly more interesting without making breakfast complicated.


2. Black Truffle, Garlic & Butter Olive Oil for Eggs

Fry your eggs in Black Truffle, Garlic & Butter Olive Oil and your kitchen smells incredible.

It’s rich. Savory. A little indulgent.

If you’re scrambling instead, Butter Olive Oil works beautifully. You get that soft, buttery flavor without actually using butter.

It’s breakfast — just with more personality.


3. Herbs de Provence Olive Oil in Quiche

Quiche doesn’t need to be complicated.

Add Herbs de Provence Olive Oil to your egg mixture before baking and the herbs are already built in.

No extra measuring. No chopping.

Just balanced flavor that tastes like you thought ahead.


4. Garlic Olive Oil on Toast

Yes. Garlic at breakfast.

Brush Garlic Olive Oil on toast before building your breakfast sandwich.

Add eggs. Cheese. Maybe a handful of greens.

It’s bold, savory, and very satisfying. And if there’s a little garlic breath afterward, well… that’s part of the charm.


5. Rosemary Olive Oil for Breakfast Potatoes

Breakfast potatoes and rosemary belong together.

Toss them in Rosemary Olive Oil before roasting or sautéing and they come out crisp on the outside, soft inside, and deeply savory.

It anchors the whole plate.


Why Olive Oil Works at Breakfast

Using olive oil at breakfast is simple.

It adds flavor.
It replaces butter.
It brings balance to foods that can otherwise feel flat.

And once you start cooking breakfast with olive oil, you won’t save it just for dinner.

If you’d like to try any of these, you’ll find them in the shop and online. And if you’re already using olive oil at breakfast in another way, I’d love to hear it.
