What's your favorite thing to have for Christmas breakfast?

Hearing about delicious, yet fun and easy, things would be great, as no one in my family wants to spend hours cooking in the morning :)

You've got to go with Belgium Waffles! It's nice to have refreshing fruit and whipped cream on the big day!

INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm milk (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
3 egg yolks
2 3/4 cups warm milk (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
3/4 cup butter, melted and cooled to lukewarm
1/2 cup white sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 cups all-purpose flour
3 egg whites

DIRECTIONS
In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm milk. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, 1/4 cup of the warm milk and the melted butter. Stir in the yeast mixture, sugar, salt and vanilla. Stir in the remaining 2 1/2 cups milk alternately with the flour, ending with the flour. Beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks; fold into the batter. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
Preheat the waffle iron. Brush with oil and spoon about 1/2 cup (or as recommended by manufacturer) onto center of iron. Close the lid and bake until it stops steaming and the waffle is golden brown. Serve immediately or keep warm in 200 degree oven.

My favorite thing for Christmas breakfast is very easy...orange juice and champagne to drink (together if you like), toasted English muffins and fluffy scrambled eggs made with a touch of salt and cream. Homemade muffins (which you can make the day before or day of) are also delicious, you can add lovely spices, raisins, nuts if you like to give them a wintery flavor.

It's not Christmas morning for me without very-berry muffins...a mixture of blueberry and strawberry.

It's a family tradition! :)

I do not recall having breakfast as a youngster on Christmas morning. I don't think it was a formal affair since I was too busy playing with toys to pay attention.

As an adult, my family has Sister Schubert's cinnamon rolls. They can be found in the frozen food aisle in many grocery stores. The yeast rolls cannot be beaten!

Biscuits and jelly. Grandma always used to make them from scratch. It was the only thing that could tear me away from my toys.

I love making a crockpot breakfast porridge. You put all the ingredients in the crockpot at night, and when you wake up you have a delicious breakfast that everyone in your family will love. I get requests for this from my toddler, my 11 year old, my husband, my parents, and my friends. This is my own recipe:

Maple Nut Porridge
By Tara DeMaderios

Makes 3 cups (2 servings)

Ingredients:
¼ cup brown rice
¼ cup millet
¼ cup amaranth
¼ cup maple syrup
½ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp salt (optional)
2 3/4 cups boiling water
1 cup milk (cow's, soy, rice, any you prefer)
¼ cup flax meal
½ cup chopped nuts (preferably hazelnuts)

Directions:
Place grains, maple syrup, cinnamon, salt, and boiling water in a crock-pot and cook on low heat overnight, or on high for about 4 hours. Porridge will look crispy and dark, but that is normal. Right before serving, stir in milk and warm through. Stir in nuts, separate into bowls, sprinkle flax meal over top of porridge, and serve warm. You can also drizzle some maple syrup on top if you like it a little bit sweeter. This can also be eaten cold.

Waffles, now before you dismiss this, you can really make them extra special with just a little extra effort.

After you've made your generic batter, take lots of vanilla extra (immatation works just as well) and cinnamin. Add VERY generous amounts of both. NOT just a dash. I've often thought at first I had added too much cinnamin and it has been just right. The batter should go from its light gold to a light brown color by the time your done. You should actually be able to smell the cinnamin and vanilla in the batter (not just when it cooks). This combination works wonderfully with butter and maple syrup.

Enjoy!

Pancakes!

Ours are made by my Brother in Law, although I now add a batch with Pamela's Gluten-free Pancake Mix (don't diss it 'til you've tried it). Sister brings on sliced bananas, strawberries, whipped cream and WARM maple syrup. Hot chocolate or hot tea all around.

By the way, when I poked around for links, I found this cool Pancake-Mix Taste Test, which compares the five most popular pancake mixes:

My mom has a waffle iron that is literally older than me(33 yoa). It's probably a bio-hazard judging by the way it looks but it cranks out the best waffles and as a consequence the waffles and the iron have become legendary in my family.

I always enjoy a nice brunch late morning on Christmas. There's typically an egg dish, either scrambled or some type of strata, danish, and sausage. For the last few years, I've been making monkey bread which is an incredibly easy coffee cake/danish that's great to pull apart and eat when hot. It's easy because the dough base is just Pillsbury biscuit dough purchased in the refrigerator section of the grocery store. Here's a recipe:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix cinnamon and sugar to your taste. Use 3 tubes of Pillsbury buttermilk biscuits. Cut each biscuit into four equal pieces. As you cut up the biscuits, roll (coat) each piece in the cinnamon sugar. Place/drop them evenly into a bundt pan. In a sauce pan, melt one stick of butter, 1 cup of brown sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. When it is melted and combined, pour it over the biscuit pieces. Then bake for 30 minutes. Guaranteed to be delicious!

We like whole grain pancakes with a nice maple syrup, perhaps a poached egg, freshly squeezed orange juice and a good cup of Kona coffee with cream.

I always cook a piece of gammon in cider a few days before Christmas. It is first cut for Christmas day breakfast with a choice of fruity chutneys like peach or mango.

Accompaniments are some nice freshly baked bread (I like to buy part-baked ciabatta rolls), and a big cup of good coffee - never instant. Even if I'm feeling a bit hung over from a merry Christmas eve party, this gets me going and in the mood to tackle the cooking. And of course, it's so easy!

French toast. Simple, delicious, and you can make it special with some fresh fruit, a bit of whipped cream, and served with mimosas if you want to make it silly and a bit more special.

Waffles and pancakes can be done up very nicely, too. Blueberries, chocolate chips, walnuts, or whatever else may have you, load on some fresh fruit and whipped cream, and it's instantly more memorable than plain ol' buttermilk pancakes/waffles.

If you have cinnamon toast, and some cardamom hanging around, put some cardamom on the cinnamon toast. It's tasty, but not worth going out spending $15 for cardamom just to do it.

Egg McMuffins! Make our own. Bacon, eggs, and english muffins. Simple and yummy.

The way I see it is not to go crazy. Make one or two things that everyone will like, and make it up a bit nicer than normal, but don't waste time making a feast!
