1. Quick Shakshuka

We love Shakshuka at any time of day...and we LOVE it for breakfast. As the recipe entails, this dish is quick to make, and only needs a few ingredients. Nevertheless, is it jam-packed with flavour and equally as healthy.
2. Egg Bruschetta

An Egg Bruschetta is a go-to when we have quite a few mouths to feed and very little time. Like a traditional bruschetta, this recipe uses a few simple—yet strong—ingredients. At a mere 15 minutes of cook time, dare we say less is more, more, and better? Round out this meal with a healthy side of Green Bean, Bacon and Egg Salad.
3. Ham, Cranberry and Camembert French Toasts

How can you go wrong with French Toast at breakfast time? This version combines Ham, Cranberry, and Camembert, elevating a simple french toast to places we'd never imagine. The best part? This recipe is surprisingly simple to make.
4. Hash Brown Ham and Egg Nests

Hash Brown Ham and Egg Nests are our go-to when we have a lot of little ones to feed. These bite-sized treats just scream, "eat me"!
5. Savoury Breakfast Tarts

Looking for something a bit more savoury? Give these tarts a try. Here, we combine mushrooms, ricotta, eggs and more to create a flavour-filled tart that everyone will enjoy. Watch out though, these ones might get scoffed before you know it.
6. Tray Bake Pancake with Raspberry and Mango

Now time for something sweet. We're in love with this Tray Bake Pancake. A subtle reinterpretation of traditional pancakes, feel free to swap the fruit pairing out for your own favourite flavours.
7. Spicy Scrambled Egg Breakfast Rolls

Let's scramble it up! Scrambled eggs are super quick to prepare, making these Breakfast Rolls one of the easiest recipes on this list. Turn up the heat with a sprinkle of chilli flakes and you got yourself a delicious breakfast to serve.
8. Eggs Florentine Breakfast Bake

How about a healthy Eggs Florentine Breakfast Bake? In this recipe, we combine all of our favourite veggies into a bake that even the pickiest of eaters will probably enjoy.
9. Brekkie Bagel

Take a look at that Brekkie Bagel. Who would've thought to cook an egg right over the middle of it? Our mouths are watering just thinking about how good this will taste on Christmas morning.
A few little ones that just love to have fun with their food? Combine this bagel with our Green Eggs & Ham recipe!
10. Cheesy Breakfast Strata

It's time to get cheesy. This Strata recipe is a veggie delight, baked with crunchy ciabatta bread. It's like a deconstructed breakfast sandwich, only ten times better!
11. Poached Eggs with Avocado on Toast

Last but not least, the family favourite Poached Eggs with Avo on Toast. The name says it all, this recipe is absolutely delicious.
We opted for sourdough this time around, but feel free to swap it for your bread of choice before adding the avo spread. You could even try this Ham, Cheese, and Olive Loaf.
Well, it looks like Christmas breakfast is covered. We hope you enjoy the holiday season! If you need more holiday inspo make sure to drop by our Christmas Recipes list for more exciting ideas. Enjoy!
