Breakfast

Apple Streusel Coffeecake starts with a moist sour cream batter, then adds layers of soft, jam-y apples, crunchy brown sugar cinnamon streusel, and a drizzle of bourbon-spiked glaze.

Blueberry Dirt Bomb Sweet Rolls are the sticky buns of summer. A sweet, egg-y dough is wrapped around a filling of tart juicy blueberries, then brushed with butter and tumbled in cinnamon sugar. Think jelly doughnut meets cinnamon roll – yes, please!

In this Blueberry Croissant French Toast, rich croissants are soaked in an eggy custard and cooked in butter until they’re golden and crusty on the outside and soft and creamy on the inside, then smothered with fat blueberries briefly heated until they’re bursting and juicy.

This easy baked omelet is stuffed with zucchini, onions, bacon and leeks, cradled in a rich egg custard laced with herbs and tangy Gruyere cheese. 

This cross between French toast and a Croque Madame is golden and crusty on the outside, creamy and custardy on the inside, layered with savory fillings, oozing with cheese, and crowned with a shining sunny egg.

The brown sugar crumb topping gives these tender raspberry muffins a touch of extra sweetness and a coffeecake vibe.

A popover’s hollow center is begging to be stuffed with creamy scrambled eggs and silky spinach. A sprinkling of cheese and a minute under the broiler turn this simple combination into a spectacular brunch dish or light supper.

Gooey, buttery, cinnamon-laced, drenched with caramel topping and scattered with crunchy pecans, Sticky Buns are the ultimate breakfast roll.

Nothing’s quite as festive for breakfast as this Cranberry Pecan Streusel Coffeecake – moist and sweet/tart, flavored with a hint of orange and topped with a thick layer of buttery streusel and crunchy pecans.

These pumpkin pancakes are soft, tender and so cake-y, you could almost frost them and serve them for dessert.  But give them the butter and syrup treatment when they’re fresh off the griddle and fragrant with warm autumn spices.
