Have family in town for the holidays? Want to host a festive brunch with a variety of delicious dishes? This round-up brings together our best recipes to feed a crowd. They’re not only delectable, but make for the perfect centerpiece.
1) Salmon Leek Frittata
This frittata has brunch written all over it. The leeks are quickly broiled and then combined with eggs and fresh dill for a fresh, herby flavor. Once the frittata is cooked, it’s finished with a luscious layer of smoked salmon, fresh chives, and crunchy fried shallots. We like to imagine this frittata served with a couple mimosas for a Sunday brunch with friends, but it would also be perfect for a holiday morning breakfast.
2) Cherry Clafoutis
This French classic composed of sweet cherries and creamy custard is a dream. While pitting the cherries involves a little prep work, the rest of this recipe comes together in no time at all. Serve this beauty for an elegant and simple weekend brunch with fresh mint and champagne!
3) French Toast Suzette
Move over, syrup, it’s time for a citrusy and boozy upgrade! We’ve transformed our original Cardamom French Toast into a variation of a classic French Suzette, complete with orange juice and Grand Marnier. While this dish is traditionally served as a dessert, it also makes for an impressive addition to any brunch table!
4) Ham & Cheese Breakfast Rolls
These cheese encrusted, golden brown breakfast rolls make the perfect addition to any brunch line up. We’ve layered slices of ham and swiss cheese on top of store-bought pizza dough for a quick and easy savory take on the beloved cinnamon roll. After baking, these rolls are topped with a slightly sweet and tangy honey mustard sauce for an extra punch of flavor and beautiful photo-ready finish.
5) Peach Coffee Cake
While there’s actually no coffee in this cake, it’s the perfect breakfast or dessert treat alongside a fresh cup of coffee. We’ve adapted our incredibly light and fluffy Confetti Cake recipe to whip up this ripe peach and brown sugar crumb coffee cake. Dream up a beautiful sweet and salty brunch spread by baking our peach coffee cake and Cheddar Bacon and Chive Scones in your Suvie at the same time.
6) Cheesy Egg & Bacon Breakfast Bake
Smoky bacon, creamy cheese, rich brioche, and custardy eggs make this savory strata a decadent addition to your next brunch menu. Broiling the strata at the end of cooking gives a crunchy crisp finish that is the perfect contrast to the fluffy, soft filling. Serve with hot sauce for a knockout dish that everyone will enjoy.
7) Sausage Cheddar Croissant Boats
Part omelet and part breakfast sandwich, this recipe takes our favorite breakfast pastry and fills it to the brim with flavor. These croissant boats are the perfect breakfast, ideal for leisurely sit-down breakfasts. We recommend serving the croissant tops on the side or snacking on them while Suvie works its magic.
8) Peach & Prosciutto Tart
Whip up this flakey puff pastry tart in nearly no time at all. We’ve simplified prep by using store bought puff pastry sheets and minimal, yet bold toppings. For an extra hint of sweetness, drizzle honey over the tart after broiling or bring some boldness to the plate by using spicy honey.
9) Waffle Casserole
If you’re looking to diversify your breakfast options, consider casserolling your waffles. In this dish, convenient freezer-aisle waffles are submerged in a rich combination of eggs, milk, butter, maple syrup, vanilla, and cinnamon, and slow cooked until tender. This casserole emerges custardy and moist, but is then broiled for a crunchy finish. Finish off your waffle casserole with a little extra maple syrup for a sweet start to your day.
