Christmas morning breakfast

[Wishimaywishimight]

It's just DH and I. We usually have smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, with bagels and bucks fizz (we go visiting from mid-day - all in walking distance so no driving!).

Would like something different this year so looking for some ideas please 😋

Nothing! Not really breakfast people.** But I always wish we were when I read the delights other people have.

** champagne isn't breakfast, so that.

I buy frozen croissants and pain au chocolat from Waitrose. One/two each more than enough given you're about to have a massive meal later. Heat in the oven for a few minutes ..... perfect!

Croissants or pain au chocolates depending on preference, kids usually have whatever is in their stockings too so I often add a breakfast bar or similar…. Er….. I mean Santa does

Does that include square (Lorne) sausage?😋

Full English for us, with a big teapot of Yorkshire tea

Cereal with baileys, not milk, swiftly followed by a selection box

Can’t help as we have very much the same as you OP! Husband, DD and I. Scrambled egg, salmon, Buck’s Fizz (OJ for DD!) but it has to be on a special bread that I only allow my husband to buy on Christmas Eve every year and at no other point during the year!!

In our house:
Jus rol croissants, made by the kids (all of us)
very nice jam (DD1 and me)
smoked salmon (DD2 DH)
scrambled eggs (DD2 DH)
pannetone (me, both DDs)
clementine juice (all of us)
very nice coffee (me and DH)

This is probably the only meal of the entire year where we eat different things, but its all on the table and we all eat what we want together, and it wouldnt be Xmas without all of that on our breakfast table.

We have lots of other festive breakfasts throughout the festive season.
Yesturday we started our day with santa pancakes

I always do sausages, bacon, blackpudding and toast. But this year I am definitely going to do the bacon naan rolls - they look great.

We just have our normal breakfast, toast or cereal. We eat lunch about 1 or 1.30 so don’t eat much before.

Reading this thread vicariously. I have to have plain porridge on Xmas day if I'm to enjoy myself later as too much rich food in one day upsets my stomach. FML.

Oh wow, I didn't know they sold kits

If I had a cook I would have kippers, or smoked haddock, or kedgeree.

I am not great at eating breakfast but in my culture there is a special type of saffron bun that you eat on the 13th of December so I usually have one of those in the morning. Dh and kids don't like it and I'd usually make them some crossiants. Just coffee and orange juice. We keep breakfast light as tend to eat lunch around 1-2pm. The kids will inevitably also eat all the chocolate coins from their stockings too.

We always have orange juice and warmed croissants filled with Nutella.

🤣

I love that bun, had them in Sweden and Norway when I did some hiking there, wish they were as easily accessible in bakeries in the UK!

My husband has cream cheese and salmon on a toasted English muffin and wobbly coffee.

Bacon, sausage or egg butties Dh get up to make the butties.
Tea for me and coffee for him orange juice for the kids.

Smoked salmon and cream cheese bagels or smoked salmon on scrambled eggs.

This is a delicious breakfast from Moorish by Ben Tish, different

We are having croissants ill get the part baked ones in. Don't want to waste time in the kitchen. My xmas dinner is typically just a normal roast with a few extras (pigs in blankets etc).

@ToadRage , is a wobbly coffee a boozy coffee? I like those too!

@Piemam Yes, coffee with rum and cream floating on top. A proper Irish coffee has whisky so a wobbly coffee is with rum.

So many people suggesting what you already have, or just swapping scrambled egg for cream cheese 😂.

Depending on who is cooking, we either have loaded breakfast burritos (scrambled egg, mushroom, bacon, sausage etc), or sourdough with avocado, bacon, poached eggs, pico de gallo.

We’ve saved the effort and just had croissants one year, but everyone missed the substantial breakfast, so the chefs have been roped in ever since (about 10 of us usually).

Christmas porridge (full cream milk, dried cranberries and dates, cinnamon and mixed spice)
