Simple Tips for an Unforgettable Holiday Breakfast

Plan the menu in advance. Choose a few recipes that balance sweet and savory flavors so there's something for everyone to enjoy.

Prep ahead when possible. Make parts of the meal the night before, like mixing batter, prepping toppings, or setting the table, to keep the morning stress-free.

Add a few special touches. Fresh fruit, a sprinkle of powdered sugar, a side of crispy bacon, or even a simple flower centerpiece can make breakfast feel extra special.

Timing is everything. Start with dishes that take the longest to cook (like waffles or casseroles) and work down to quick items like eggs or pancakes so everything finishes around the same time.

Get the family involved. Let the kids help with easy tasks like mixing batter or setting the table to make the morning feel even more meaningful.
