12 Easy Christmas Breakfast Ideas

Less Cooking, More Fun Time with Friends and Family for Big Festival!

These 12 easy Christmas breakfast ideas literally take care of themselves.  All you need to do is to assemble everything together. 

12 easy Christmas breakfast ideas that free up plenty of time for you to enjoy the festival with your friends and family.

These recipes are so easy because they have similar ways of preparation, cooking methods and cooking temperature.  It will be one stone, several birds.  You can pick and choose by the combination of different categories showing here.  You can also focus on one category of these easy Christmas breakfast ideas.

What inspired me to put this list together was that many families need to make a couple stops on Christmas day, especially those with younger children.  Some need to host and serve.  If you are one of those people, I feel your pain. 

Serving breakfast is a lighter version instead of preparing a big dinner.  But there are still a lot of things to do before everybody arrives, right?  These recipes will give you a peace of mind.  All you need to do is to combine ingredients together. 

If you need to bake in the oven, it is literally no work from your side at all.  You can walk away and chill out before everybody showing up.  Or, you can do whatever needs to be done in your house, like some last-minute touch-up.

In general, these recipes were picked based on their durability.  A few of them can be made up to 2 days ahead of time.  There are recipes required baking in each group.  The one common theme is that they can be in the oven at the same time because of the same cooking temperature.  Yes, all of them.  If you are serving a HUGE crowd, you can literally do them all.  But, in reality, I would recommend you to ask for help, like sharing tasks with a few guests.

So, let's dive in these 12 easy Christmas breakfast ideas, shall we?

12 Easy Christmas Breakfast Ideas Recipes

Make-Ahead Recipes

As it shows on the title, you can make these ahead of time and serve them in room temperature.  For baked goods, they can be baked 2 days before serving.  The rest of the recipes in this group can be prepared the night before the event.

Freezer-Friendly Recipes

These egg muffins are the perfect size for feeding a crowd of nibbling. You can make all of them 2 weeks before Christmas. On the day of serving, you can have 3-4 of each to warm up. Your presentation will look like there are different varieties for everyone to choose from. Your guests may even think that you spend hours in the kitchen working on these small bites. Little will they find out that you make them separately for a stretch of a week. If you need to add more, simply pop a few more into the microwave to warm it up.

The rest of them can stay in the freezer. You can warm them up for breakfast to go. Nothing goes to waste. It's a win-win for everyone.
