Pancake Recipes for Christmas Morning
- Kids will love these easy Apple Cinnamon Pancakes. A touch of cinnamon with delicious apples makes for a delicious holiday treat.
- Our Herb and Cheese Dutch Baby is one giant pancake. This pancake is more custard-like than traditional pancakes. Change up the toppings to your preference!
French Toast Recipes to Please Everyone!
- Savory French Toast Roll-Ups are a unique version of classic french toast. Cheese, bacon, and egg, what more could you want in a perfect breakfast recipe?
- Banana Bread French Toast is the perfect way to use up that banana bread that may have gone stale. We coat it in corn flakes to make a crispy exterior. Cover these in maple syrup and you have a perfect special Christmas morning breakfast!
Christmas Breakfast Ideas For a Group
- Our favorite Christmas breakfast recipe is this Breakfast Casserole. It has everything you would want in a recipe all baked together. Eggs, cheddar cheese, hash browns, peppers, and sausage.
- This Sausage Strata is the ideal dish if you’re looking to carb load! This is best fresh out of the oven, and great for a crowd because you can make it ahead of time.
- Cheesy, Flaky Breakfast Cups are basically an all-american breakfast in muffin form. These are super easy to batch up, and are ready in under 30 minutes!
Cinnamon Rolls – The Classic Christmas Morning Recipe with some twists!
- Cinnamon Rolls may the quintessential Christmas morning breakfast treat, and this Cinnamon Roll Loaf is a twist on the classic. This is a cross between monkey bread and cinnamon rolls, covered in delicious icing.
- We understand if you want to stick to a classic, so this Brown Butter Cinnamon Roll recipe might just be for you. Think of these as the cinnamon rolls you know and love, but with an extra flavor boost from the nutty browned butter.
On The Sweet Side Breakfast Recipes
- Triple Berry Bread Pudding can also be a dessert recipe, but I think it’s similar to a french toast bake that we just thought we would include it in this big list of breakfast ideas.
- Honey Brick Toast is similar to french toast in that it’s bread soaked in an egg mixture. The difference is that the crust gets a little more crispy and the inside is very custardy. Topped with whipped cream and strawberries. This recipe is so good!
- These homemade Apple Fritters are easy to batch up, and would even make a sweet treat after Christmas Dinner.
Baked Goods To Have On Hand
- Scones are a delicious baked treat to have coffee. Our Cranberry and Orange Scones have such good flavor and we love the brightness cranberries give these treats.
Family Friendly Egg Dishes
- Our Baked Egg Boats are one of our signature brunch recipes. Think of these like soup in a bread bowl, but swap the soup for a quiche. These are so delicious, and a very simple and easy dish.
- Twice Baked Breakfast Potatoes are so good. A great recipe for families, and easily modifiable if you’re working with some allergies. With easy ingredients, this dish can be prepped ahead so it will be easy to finish off in the morning.
Christmas Morning Breakfast Favorites
- Pumpkin Spiced Waffles are the epitome of fall, but if you’re like us and can’t get enough of everything pumpkin spice you will love these fragrant waffles. Don’t forget the maple syrup!
- Our Breakfast Pot Pies can be made ahead of time and baked when you’re ready. You can make one big one for your family, or individual ones too!
