What sweet breakfast would you prefer to eat on Christmas?

[Cronte]

My teen daughter is wanting to bake breakfast this year for our very large family. We are having McDonalds style English muffins. But DD is insisting on a sweet treat for those that would prefer. She want to make something from scratch. She has asked what adults would prefer 😂. I have no sweet tooth so am no help.

• Cinnamon rolls
• Walnut/chocolate plaits
• Pastries (would be a turnover-esque thing with fresh cream - assortment of flavours)
• Babka with various jams
• Baked German pancakes
• Custard buns

I’ve told her it’s not really needed as the English muffins are plenty filling but she’s insisting. And I’m more than happy for her to enjoy baking/cooking. We have a large group so I’m sure they’ll get eaten.

Chocolate babka, the best babka of them all!

Cinnamon is a winner here as well. I would go for them.

Not on the list but these are fab and Christmassy and can be prepped the night before. https://www.nigella.com/recipes/christmas-morning-muffins

I’m not help because I would also want your savoury option. I think Christmas Day especially needs to begin with something savoury.

But of those options I think cinnamon rolls sound good. A bit more “proper food”y than the other options.

Banana bread 😋

My preference would be a chocolate plait but would eat anything on your list!

Except banana bread as I am allergic to bananas…

Cinnamon rolls but to throw another into the mix, my very favourites are maple and pecan plaits

I used to live near a baker that made amazing Cardamom Bubka, I miss them so much!

Monkey Bread? It's nice and sociable.

Quite a few people I know don't like cinnamon so I'd go for a selection of pastries to also include Croissants and pain au chocolates.

Cinnamon rolls. I'd have that over savoury. The main lunch is Savoury so we have a sweeter breakfast Xmas morning.
A selection of pastries and pancakes.

Ha first post nails it!

Absolutely cinnamon buns!

Cinnamon rolls are my absolute favourite, @Cronte.

We've made these for breakfast on Christmas day for the last 10 years! They're great because they're not too sickly and, as @flairyfairy says, you can do a lot of the prep the night before.

I do these, they’re very easy to prep before and bake in the morning and feel like a treat.

The cinnamon rolls would probably be first choice, but apart from the custard buns, I'd be happy with anything. Had to Google the German pancakes - they look delicious!
