Easter Brunch Recipe Ideas That'll Help You Celebrate Deliciously

by Kiersten Hickman

Easter isn’t Easter without brunch. I mean I know it’s a religious holiday and all — I have been celebrating it every single year of my entire life. But for me, Easter means having one big fat brunch after church, followed by a huge Easter egg hunt. Although the little candies melting inside those plastic eggs hiding around the house were appealing, it was the brunch that has always had my heart. Which is why these easy easter brunch recipe ideas are making my heart swoon.

Now some people may disagree with me on this, but one of the reasons I’m obsessed with brunch is the fact that dishes you wouldn’t expect to find in breakfast, or in lunch, are being presented to the table. In my world scrambled eggs is always a meal option no matter what time of the day. But for others that may not be the case — which is why brunch is just so darn special. You get to serve scrambled eggs, quiche, and french toast alongside a beautiful display of salads, vegetables — even a large plate of charcuterie is acceptable. It really is a magical meal. No wonder so many people are obsessed with it.

So, if you are celebrating Easter (or even if you’re not celebrating Easter and just really want brunch on Apr 16, 2017) here are some recipes to attempt for your brunch buffet table.

Savory Bacon And Kale Breakfast Pudding

This delicious breakfast pudding is over at Rachel Mansfield’s blog featuring Barely Bread. Even better, it's totally paleo — and even though it lacks dairy, grains, and gluten, it still tastes like the most indulgent thing in the world thanks to the bacon and Barely Bread's exceptional bread options.

Potato Quiche

It’s really not an official Easter brunch without a quiche, like this one by My Baking Addiction.

Orange Blueberry Olive Oil Muffins

Muffins are always a good idea for Easter brunch, especially these muffins by Jelly Toast.

Heirloom Tomato Cheddar Tart

You should make this tart by Half Baked Harvest simply to look at it. I mean, isn’t it gorgeous?

Raspberry Limoncello Prosecco

I mean, it’s never brunch without a little bubbly. This recipe by Damn Delicious will certainly surpass your typical go-to mimosa.

I’m not even kidding...these doughnuts by Climbing Grier Mountain are actually made with melted cadbury egg frosting. Cue drooling.

Maple Dijon Roasted Carrots

It may seem silly to have carrots at brunch, but vegetables are always a great idea for a well-rounded brunch table! Especially with a sauce like this one by Closet Cooking.

Balsamic Glazed Brussel Sprouts with Bacon

Another great vegetable recipe for your table by Jelly Toast.

Greek-Inspired Antipasto

Sometimes a large plate of antipasto and charcuterie is great for some brunch pickings as soon as guests walk into the door. You can find this antipasto inspiration over at Half Baked Harvest.

Slow Cooker Breakfast Potatoes

A simple crockpot recipe by Damn Delicious very little effort to put together, giving you time for you to make a delicious egg recipe to go with it!
