Over 50 Easter breakfast and brunch recipes including egg breakfasts, sweet baked goods, cinnamon rolls, homemade bread, breakfast casseroles, and more. One of my favorite Easter brunch recipes is this Spring Vegetable Frittata.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons scallions (or leek), finely chopped
- 1 cup thin asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 bunch broccolini
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup feta cheese (or goat cheese), crumbled
- fresh basil, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- In a large oven-proof skillet or cast-iron skillet, heat oil for 2 minutes over medium-high heat until the hot oil sizzles. Add scallions and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add asparagus and broccolini and stir well to cook until tender, about 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in peas and spinach and season with pepper and paprika. Stir well until evenly combined, allowing them to soften.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs and cream until smooth. Season with salt. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and gently shake to distribute. Sprinkle feta cheese evenly on top.
- Bake for 20 minutes until completely set. Let the frittata rest for 5-10 minutes to stabilize since it will puff up fresh out of the oven.
- Garnish with basil and extra feta on top, if desired. Slice and serve.
Notes
Plan your menu ahead of time. You can prepare a lot of these Easter recipes in advance (including all the baked goods), and store them in an airtight container for a few days at room temperature or in the refrigerator. Some of these Easter breakfast recipes can also be made even further in advance and frozen. Check each recipe for full make ahead and storing instructions.
Prep your ingredients. If you aren't able to make something completely in advance then prepare as much as you can ahead of time — whether that's chopping ingredients, making dough, or prepping and storing in the refrigerator until ready to be baked in the oven.
Set the table the night before. If you are hosting a brunch for family and friends, set up the table the night before with fancy spring themed plates, mugs, flatware, placemats, and napkins. It's one less thing to worry about on Easter morning.
