You can do waffles all at the same time — just heat your oven to 150-200 and put them in right on the rack as they come off the waffle iron.

My kids favorite is TJ almond croissants with berries and maple breakfast sausage links.

We’ve made pancakes and froze them. They reheat well in the toaster.

I make homemade oatmeal muffins once or twice a week. Sometimes homemade banana muffins. Never out of a box. Serve with cut fruit.

I have no idea what a Dutch baby is so I’m
Gonna have to go google that now.

Bagels, yogurt fruit would be my go to ideas if we all were sitting and eating at the same time.
As it is we are bad about that so most mornings have eggs. I have mine like an omelette with cheese/spinach/onion
DD likes hers as a broken fried egg between naan bread. Fruit on the side.

Any kind of breakfast casserole - bread or potatoes at bottom, layer with spinach, throw in some cheese and meat (if your family likes bacon / sausage), mix up some eggs and milk, pour over and let wait in the fridge until you’re ready the next morning.

Quiche, frittata, Spanish tortilla

Monkey bread

Sweet or savoury bread pudding

Baked oatmeal, of you can make oatmeal in the slow cooker- have lots of different toppings “bar style” at the table - fruit, nuts, syrup, compote, etc. You can also mix this up by using different grains.

Kaiserschmarrn is also a delicious, pretty easy dish to mostly make ahead of time. It’s not supposed to be a breakfast but it’s delicious as done. We always serve with fruit. In your case it may be too close to the Dutch baby but it may be a way to bring pancake-y things back when you’re ready.

And our family isn’t particularly fond of the sweeter breakfast foods, so I’ll oven put out charcuterie and cheese “board type” with good bread and fruit for breakfast.

Ok.

Make an egg casserole.

It IS quick and easy - it's fewer ingredients and far less work than pancakes!

+1. It’s so easy. Mix the ingredients together, pour the batter into an oven-safe pan, and bake. Divide it up among the kids and sprinkle with powdered sugar (if not using fruit).

When younger, I used to have my kids take turns making oatmeal for the family. They had choices - either stovetop or pressure cooker. We’d measure out the ingredients the night before, together. Stovetop was oats, water, raisins, cinnamon. Pressure cooker was steel cut oats, slivered apples, cinnamon, raisins.
Now they are college teens, so we have rotations of homemade soy yogurt with frozen mango or berries (make a batch weekly), overnight oats in a jar with mashed bananas and vanilla, muesli- oats, grape nuts, wheat germ, ground flaxseed, assorted dried fruit. Layer slivered apples in bowl, top with muesli, then cover with soy milk and let sit overnight.

Self serve Toast bar with scrambled egg, jam, cream cheese, avocado, honey/butter.

Other than egg, no cooking.

My quick “breakfast” these days is a couple cups of coffee with cream. However, my kids’ current favorite quick breakfast is something they call an “EMC,”-fried egg, mayo, and cheese sandwich.
