Don't wait until a full moon to get your little zombies into the Halloween spirit! This year, you'll love kicking off the spooky activities right from the start. And there's no better way to do it then by conjuring up a Halloween breakfast first thing in the morning. Whether it's creepy doughnut hole eyeballs or a pumpkin smoothie, you'll be glad you fueled your family up for a day of Halloween fun. While some of these Halloween breakfast ideas are quick and easy (perfect for grabbing on your way out to a haunted hayride!), others would be great for a spooky holiday brunch.
Of course, you also don't have to wait until October 31 to try these morning meals! The Halloween breakfast ideas ahead are just as tasty throughout the fall season. That's, in part, thanks to the many pumpkin breakfast ideas, maple syrup recipes, homemade doughnuts, and other seasonal fall breakfast ideas that are included on this list. Try the pumpkin pancakes, sweet potato hash, apple cider doughnuts, or cinnamon roll casserole to name a few. Of course, Ree Drummond's pumpkin spice muffins will be delicious whenever the craving strikes—morning or night! Just be sure to save some room for the Halloween candy.
