9. Egg biscuit
The egg biscuit is one of only a few vegetarian options currently available at McDonald’s.
It not only contains 11 grams of protein but also provides a good amount of iron in each serving. This is beneficial because those who eat a vegetarian diet are at a higher risk of iron deficiency (3Trusted Source).
Depending on your preferences, you can swap the biscuit for an English muffin or add some cheese for a vegetarian-friendly breakfast.
10. Fruit and maple oatmeal
Fruit and maple oatmeal is one of the healthiest breakfast options on the menu at McDonald’s.
Made with oatmeal, diced apples, and a cranberry-raisin blend, the fruit and maple oatmeal packs 4 grams of fibre, 6 grams of protein, and 320 calories into each serving.
It’s also low in fat and sodium and contains several important micronutrients, including calcium, iron, and potassium. Still, keep in mind that with 31 grams of sugar per serving, it may not be as healthy as oatmeal made at home.
