The Best Holiday Breakfast Recipes
I look forward to holiday breakfasts almost as much as the main holiday meal. Especially on Christmas morning!
But I also want breakfast recipes that can be made ahead of time, at least in part. I love my family, but maybe not enough to wake up at 3:42 a.m. to get breakfast ready.
Below are some of my favorite holiday breakfast recipes, and all of them are make-ahead friendly!
{If cinnamon rolls are your holiday breakfast jam, here’s a post about how to make cinnamon rolls ahead of time.}
The Best Holiday Breakfasts
Christmas Baked Eggs
These are pretty easy to throw together the morning of, but you can also prep them in the muffin tin the night before.
Crunchy Baked French Toast Sticks
These can be made the night before and refrigerated on a sheet pan to bake the next morning.
Instant Pot Double Chocolate Steel Cut Oats
The oats mixture can be prepped the night before and refrigerated (right in the Instant Pot insert) to cook the next morning.
I fixed this for Christmas morning and it was a hit! We have fixed it several times since that. Easy to make a very yummy!
ha, thank you for all of these, still think they work in January, especially the blueberry french toast, love the pecans in this dish!
My family loved this breakfast casserole! They said this one is a keeper for Christmas morning and anytime you need an easy and yummy breakfast meal. I give this a 5 star rating!
Merry Christmas to you and thank you for being here as well. I hope you remain for another 10+ years.
Our Christmas breakfast is a relatively fast german puff pancake with apples. I include an assistant to peel and slice apples, while I prepare the batter. 30 ish minutes later and we are enjoying breakfast. Now I only have a family of 3 people, so one pancake feeds us. I don’t imagine it feeding anything more than 6 people.
The Creme Brûlée French toast bake is our Christmas tradition! I’m baking your homemade French bread today and we plan to eat one loaf and then freeze the other to save for Christmas breakfast it’s so good!!
Decisions, decisions. So many yummy things. I too love Xmas breakfast and rely on having it ready to go ahead of time. We really love your tator tot breakfast casserole and also the overnight rolls (and I’m pretty sure we had both last year on Xmas morning.) This year I’m leaning towards your recipes for egg muffins & baked pancakes. GAH. I obviously need to celebrate the Twelve Days of Christmas (brunch)!!
That Creme Brulee french toast is our go to for Christmas! It is SO yummy. Thanks for all the amazing recipes you post!! I love your blog!
I hav made so many of these through the years! Thanks for gathering them together like this. Mel your recipes are the best!
The overnight tatertot breakfast casserole…OMG. BEST. THING. EVER.
Made it for friends and family while on vacation for NYE last year (before we were all stuck in our own personal bubbles) and everyone raved!! We had all ages- from 5 yo to 21yo plus parents and it was a success across the board. AMAZING! Thanks for sharing and everyone needs to have this in their lives. Make it today. Seriously. You won’t regret it!!
