English breakfast for 12

56 replies

How would you do an English style breakfast for 12 people?
I don’t want to be in the kitchen all morning but am having people over for brunch..
sausages, bacon, egg, beans and toast or hashbrowns?
I have an airfryer and oven. Slow cooker too but not sure it’ll be much help
what would be the easiest way to do this?

I do it all in the oven - bacon, sausages, hash browns all on trays, then tinned tomatoes - or fresh ones with some oil/pesto, baked beans, and mushrooms with butter and thyme, all in ovenproof dishes and covered with foil.

Then just do either a big pot of scrambled eggs or fried to order.

I’d do toast as well, but get someone else on toast duty so they can keep a good rotation going as people sit down. They can butter it as it comes out and help themselves to the rest while you do the eggs. Most importantly get someone to serve up a plate for you so you don’t sit down to find the sausages have all gone!

I’d do a huge plate of different pastries
couple of platters of beautiful fresh fruit
a stack of yogurts smoothies and juices
cold meats, cheese and some breads

That not an English breakfast although sounds nice.

My view… if it’s served in England, it’s an English breakfast!
