How do I plan a small brunch?

Start by choosing the menu. Traditional breakfast recipes like eggs, bacon, and pancakes are always popular, but why not add a few seasonal touches?

Consider dishes such as Overnight French toast, breakfast parfaits with homemade granola or blueberry crumb coffee cake. Many recipes include ingredients that can be made ahead of time – like muffins or overnight breakfast casserole with hash browns – so you’ll have more time to spend with your guest during the brunch.

When it comes to setting the mood, it doesn’t take much effort to make your holiday brunch feel special. Start by laying out a festive tablecloth or runner and add some seasonal decorations such as greenery, candles, gold accents or tiny white lights.

What type of beverages should I serve with the meal?

Don't forget about beverages! Offer guests their choice of coffee, tea or water; plus something special like sparkling grape infused water or maybe my newest Brunch Punch Non Alcoholic recipe.

Spiced cider is also a great option that can be made with freshly-pressed apple cider and mixed with cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, star anise, and allspice for some extra warmth. Additionally, you can include festive juices like cranberry or pomegranate juice to give the brunch a bit of holiday cheer.
