Recipe Round-Up Top 10 Christmas Breakfast Recipes Christmas morning is a magical time full of family, fun, and traditions. In the background of all this merrymaking, there’s always breakfast. Savory or sweet, shareable or cooked-to-order, this may just be our favorite breakfast of the year. This year, we collected our favorite Lodge recipes for Christmas breakfast (though they make a great start to the day all year long). Baked or griddled, fried or broiled, let’s tuck in for some very special breakfast treats. 1. Cinnamon Twists These are a family favorite! They come from the kitchen of retired CEO Henry Lodge. It’s a recipe he made with his kids and now makes with his grandkids—and they’re always on the table for Christmas! 2. Gingerbread Cinnamon Rolls The spice of the season meets a classic breakfast treat in this right-on-time recipe. Assemble rolls the night before and pop them in the oven on Christmas morning for an easy make-ahead treat that fills the house with yummy smells. 3. Candied Bacon Monkey Bread This is a crowd pleaser that’s welcome at any meal and combines our favorite breakfast flavors. Crispy bacon nestled in a slightly-spicy dough, and glazed in brown sugar. We call it a whole new take on pancakes and bacon. 4. Cranberry Scones The cranberries add a festive note to this sweet treat. We recommend making them ahead of time and warming them in the oven right before serving for just-baked freshness without the hassle of baking on Christmas morning. 5. Strawberries & Cream Skillet Bread Pudding It’s dessert, with a breakfast-y twist. Top this delightful strawberries-and-cream skillet dish with a dollop of Greek yogurt for a fresh and tangy flavor. Swap any berry or stone fruit you love to make it your own. 6. Sausage Stuffed Pancake Sticks These are easy to make and kid-approved! The hardest part? Deciding whether you’ll dunk yours in maple syrup, ketchup, or mustard. 7. Homemade Apple Fritters A classic donut batter meets its crunchy, sweet match in seasonal apples. These may take a bit more hands-on time but the result is worth it: a crave-worthy holiday favorite that pairs perfectly with cider or hot cocoa. 8. Briggs’ Buttermilk Biscuits Nothing says breakfast like a flaky, tender biscuit. We love these puppies sandwiched with eggs, cheese, sausage gravy — or even just a bit of honey butter. The possibilities are endless (thankfully!) for this buttermilk mix that cooks up in your favorite skillet. 9. Classic Quiche Lorraine Bacon and cheese? Count us in! We love this quiche because the crust can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 5 days, making this dish easy work on Christmas morning. 10. Huevos Rancheros Breakfast Casserole A great option when you’re feeding a crowd, this casserole features tortillas, eggs, black beans, and cheese, laced with a gloriously savory sauce and baked until perfectly melty. All the goodness of classic huevos rancheros, made in one casserole dish.
