Christmas Day breakfast?

[Rnm62]

Just that really. What do you have? Need some ideas

We always have croissants, chocolate chip brioches, Nutella (for ds2), jams (different ones each year - blackberry, cherry and apricot this year) and Buck's Fizz.

Christmas breakfast is always a mad rush in our house. dc will probably have something quick like pain au chocolat and I will gulp down a cup of tea while nagging my 7 year old to get dressed and nagging my teenager to get up.

Why a rush?! Christmas mornings surely about just enjoying?

croissants / pastries home baked , and party bits left over from xmas eve !

No nagging on Christmas Day! ☹️

Eggs royale (with shop bought fresh hollondaise as I’m lazy), Buck’s Fizz, Christmas Tree Brioche for children if they turn their nose up at the eggs.

Chocolate

Pork pie!

Selection of pastries and Definately a lemoncello panatone

A selection box. It's not Christmas morning without that!

Bucks Fizz usually

I always do a make-ahead casserole so I only have to pop it in the oven Christmas morning. Literally the only time of year I am this organised. Can do a savoury (sliced baguettes/ham/cheese/spinach/egg) or sweet (french toast casserole, blueberry pecan pancake bread pudding).

Breaded Camembert & cranberry sauce.

Sounds sad.

Guessing you have to be somewhere?

Scrambled eggs and smoked salmon on toast with Bucks Fizz and nice coffee.

Toasted bagels with cream cheese and smoked salmon washed down with champagne. We always host Christmas dinner so it’s mine and DPs little celebration. Christmas hats and music are mandatory.

Jus rol croissants, pain au chocolat and cinnamon swirls

I'm going to have a bagel with crispy bacon, cream cheese and mango chutney and a Tim hortons French vanilla latte. Ds2 said he will have the same. The others don't know yet.

Oh and I'll get myself a cinnamon bun for after.

Ham and pickled onions with white bread and butter. The reasons for this are lost in the mists of time but it's a long-standing tradition. strangely, it works.

Pork pie, bread & butter

All of the above. Can trace it back over 150 years as a family tradition.

It goes back generations for us too! Love the little traditions at Christmas. When there was panic about a possible shortage of turkeys this year all our family were worried about was that we could get our usual decent pork pie from the butchers -nothing else mattered 😂

I have smoked salmon and scrambled eggs while the veggies have quorn bacon bagels. Usually fizz too but I might give that a miss this year as it makes me too sleepy

smoked salmon, scrambled egg & bucks fizz

When we were kids we had pork pie & a glass of milk but as an adult I usually have a bagel with smoked salmon & creamcheese.

We always had a huge plate of toast and butter, everyone helped themselves, and the grown ups had coffee with dark rum in it.

When I was a child breakfast was always slices of home cooked ham with bread and butter.

We usually do pancakes for Christmas morning - options of maple syrup, chopped bananas, berries, and nutella for toppings. Coffee for DH and I, orange juice for the kids.

This year they've been asking if we can do fresh pastries, although we do that as our post-Mass brunch every Sunday so they might stick with the pancakes.
