Every mother deserves a Mothers Day Brunch….especially mine!
This may come as a surprise to you (or perhaps it wont!
), but I was one heck of a rebellious teenager.
I made life hell for my mother.
Actually, 2 of the 3 RecipeTin Family kids were very, very naughty my brother and me.
Definitely worse than the average teenager.
So we always treat our mother extremely well on Mothers Day.
Sometimes, we spoil her with gifts.
ALWAYS, we spoil her with good food!
Mothers Day BRUNCH MENU
Heres a suggestion for an easy Mothers Day Brunch menu.
The idea behind this menu is that its a leisurely brunch for a group.
Country Breakfast Casserole everything you know and love about a breakfast fry up, in one big casserole!
Scones(US biscuits) Doesnt get more Mothers Dayish than a big pile of soft fluffy scones!
And these cornbread muffins are a firm favourite that make an appearance at most of our gatherings.
Strawberry Salad pretty as a picture!
Your mum will be sooo impressed by how this looks and tastes!Alternative:Apple Salad with Cranberries.
Another show off salad mum will be super impressed with.
Yogurt, fresh fruit slices or fruit salad For the pikelets and granola, or eating as is.
I think its always nice to have fresh fruit as a palette cleanser for spreads.
Just a few recipe suggestions for Mothers Day Brunch!!
My mother is definitely more of a savoury than sweet gal, so savoury dishes come first.
Just make it something your mum loves!
Sausage, egg, bacon, bread, potato, cheese!
Or try aSpanish Tortilla Omeletteloaded with potato!
If BIG flavours is more your mums style, makeShakshukafor her.
Its Middle Eastern eggs poached in a spicy tomato broth, and Im a little obsessed with it!
Or perhaps one of these are more to her liking
Zucchini Cheese Breadno yeast!
Cheese Muffinsfluffy cheesy savoury muffins?
Eerr, theyre all mine…
No Knead Soft Bread Rollsyes you read that right.
But for sweet things, here are my picks!
Pancakes Classic plain fluffypancakes, small handheld-sizepikeletsor the mother of all pancakes Blueberrypancakes!
Scones They might usually be an afternoon tea favourite, butsconesare certainly perfectly at home on a brunch table.
My recipe is super quick and fail-proof because theyre made using a food processor.
If you want an eveneasierversion, use theLemonade Scones recipe(3 ingredients, dump and stir!).
Strawberry Cheesecake It just looks so impressive and is one of the most amazing cheesecake flavour combos ever.
