Ten Delicious Mother’s Day Brunch Recipes
It’s time to spoil Mom with some over-the-top fabulousness. We're talking pancakes piled high, special scones, benedicts, all kinds of goodness to make Mom feel like royalty. Check out our chef’s top 10 recipes for bringing the Mother’s Day love.
01 / FLUFFY LEMON & BERRY RICOTTA PANCAKES
Serve Mom some sunshine on a plate. These indulgent-yet-light lemon-scented pancakes are a stack of pure joy.
02 / CRAB CAKE EGGS BENEDICT
Want to make Eggs Benedict even more elevated, and make mom feel even more special? Two words: add crab. Here’s how.
03 / POTATO CRUSTED SPINACH QUICHE
Need a creative, gluten-free brunch standout? Here you go. Just be sure to wring as much liquid as possible from the spinach before adding it in.
04 / BAKED FRENCH TOAST CASSEROLE
Here’s a dish so comforting and familiar it feels like a warm hug. You can even prep it the day before. (And mom would approve of that, right?)
05 / STRAWBERRY RHUBARB SCONES
A perfect marriage between a biscuit and a muffin, these scones make spring season flavors really shine. (Plus, they’re just so pretty.)
06 / CLASSIC FRITTATA
Meet the effortlessly-chic cousin of the omelet—golden, fluffy, crispy, custardy and packed with whatever deliciousness your fridge happens to offer.
07 / SUNDAY STRATA
Layered with flavor and easy to make ahead, this savory brunch sensation gives you the gift of time (not to mention all the compliments.)
08 / FRENCH CRÈPES
Take mom to Paris for Mother’s Day, by whipping up this beloved street treat. Sweet or savory, these thin, light pancakes cook up beautifully if you give the batter time to rest.
09 / ASPARAGUS MIMOSA WITH FRIED CAPERS
This classic French dish is called “mimosa” because the grated hard-cooked egg over the top resembles beautiful yellow mimosa flowers. (It’s also not bad with mimosas!)
10 / ITALIAN ZABAGLIONE WITH STRAWBERRIES
Zabaglione is a light, boozy flavored custard that is typically eaten warm as a sauce with dessert. We love it over sweet strawberries for a simple yet special brunch treat.
