Last year, I had a Christmas morning plan with "Ms. Shop This" and her fiance, Steve, home. This year will be different. It's just the two of us, but I plan to make it special anyway. There's something special here for all of us, no matter if you are serving two or twenty two.
Get inspired!
Festive Holiday Donuts
Breakfast doesn't get any more jolly than these. There are some pretty fabulous recipes to follow here. But of all of them, these donuts are my favorite. You can even eat them while unwrapping presents. And the decorating would be great fun. You will enjoy the very detailed instructions.
Salted Caramel Brûlée Latte
Steamed milk, sweet caramel, hints of real vanilla, and a couple of shots of espresso. What's not to love?
Baked Eggnog French Toast
Here's the perfect dish to serve to a house full of guests. The eggnog creates a rich custard and the challah bread soaks it all up. Plus you can create it the day before and bake it Christmas morning!
Vanilla Gingerbread Latte
An over the top cup of coffee, that even non coffee drinkers, like me, will love. The caramel brûlée is the perfect touch for this holiday in a cup recipe!
Said to be light and fluffy. Loving the classic red velvet hue and that decadent cream cheese glaze that tops them off. Perfect!
Fruit Christmas Tree
God love ya if you have the energy to create this festive fruit tree. Actually, it couldn't be easier. You need a styrofoam cone, toothpicks and fruit!
Jennifer Maune
To create this gorgeous champagne cocktail, simply combine fresh cranberries, cranberry simple syrup, orange juice, triple sec and champagne in a sleek champagne flute.
Champagne Donuts
These are baked in the oven, not fried. Sorry "Mr. Shop This!" They are made with actual champagne. Sign me up!
Another make ahead breakfast treat that's perfect for a special breakfast or brunch. With cremini mushrooms, heavy cream, baby spinach and more, it has got to be good.
Andes Chocolate Mint Pancakes
The touch of mint just adds the perfect Christmassy touch! These would be a big hit in my home.
An individual dish always seems special. Make it a cinnamon roll, and you have my attention. These can actually be made ahead and frozen right in the ramekins. It is a tasty time saver!
Boozy Peppermint Hot Cocoa
Of course this recipe had me at boozy. I like to have homemade hot cocoa once a year. This recipe looks and sounds worthy of the calories!
Outdoorsy
Don't these look like Christmas? I have never made a scone, but this recipe doesn't seem too challenging. What a wonderful way to celebrate the day.
If you are looking for something rather healthy. This is it. It is naturally sweet with no added refined sugar. I am not sure that Christmas Day is the day to watch our weight, but it is a good recipe to have on hand.
Baked Gingerbread Custard Waffle French Toast
These waffles are everything, think french toast bake, but on another level. You can prepare it ahead of time and let the dish sit overnight in the fridge. Done!
