The Best Christmas Brunch Recipes
Christmas brunch is such a great meal. I am excited to share some amazing Christmas Brunch recipes with you today.
Brunch is a slow, decadent meal in all the best ways. It’s a meal to linger over, a little salty and sweet, with great food and conversation. I’m sharing some of my favorites that might also become yours!




Christmas brunch is such a wonderful meal.
Everyone is still in their Christmas jammies at our Christmas Brunch, which is precisely how we like it. The presents are unwrapped, and the mimosas are poured.
Of course, there is little time to prepare the menu, so it needs to be something that can be prepared in advance or easily.
But it also needs to taste delicious.
Frittatas, Three Ways
Today, I share three amazing frittata recipes and some of our favorite breakfast bread recipes.
Scroll down to the bottom to see eight more wonderful Christmas brunch recipes.
I love making frittatas for our Christmas Brunch, and I usually don’t use a recipe; I add whatever I can find in the refrigerator and vegetable garden.

I will add these frittatas to my menu for this year’s Christmas brunch: Ground Turkey Sausage, Turkey Bacon, Pepper and Onion Frittata, and Tomato and Parmesan Frittata.
Doesn’t that sound amazing?

I love cooking in our kitchen, and I always cook on our kitchen island. After cooking in our kitchen for over twenty years, it is well stocked. I have tried to limit my kitchen utensils and appliances to necessary items only, but I do own everything you might need to cook just about anything!

Not only are frittatas light and taste good, but they are also easy to make.
Making a frittata is a three-step process. First, cook the fillings, then add the eggs, and bake.
We don’t use much cheese around here (we try to be nondairy), so you might notice very little. I used to cook with cheese all the time, but not now!

I love onions and peppers in anything, so you shouldn’t be surprised to see them in the first frittata recipe!
(A good tip is to cook some onions and peppers with olive oil, let them cool, and store them in a Ziploc bag in the refrigerator. They taste amazing with scrambled eggs, sandwiches, burgers, and more.)

Once you start filling your pans, don’t hesitate to add anything else you think might be tasty

Each frittata requires a dozen eggs. Of course, that depends on the size of your pan. We used 10″ quiche pans, so if you use a smaller pan, you can use fewer eggs.

Frittata Recipes
Ground Turkey Sausage, Turkey Bacon, Pepper and Onion Frittata
This frittata is a light and delicious egg dish perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey sausage
- ½ pound turkey bacon
- 1 onion (sliced into thin rings)
- 1 red pepper (sliced into strips)
- 1 TBSP chopped garlic (total)
- 2 TBSP olive oil
- 4 green onions, chopped, including greens
- 1 dozen eggs
- ½ cup milk or half and half
Instructions
Brown the ground turkey sausage in a pan with a dash of olive oil and a tsp of chopped garlic.
Brown the turkey bacon until crisp. Add a dash of olive oil if the bacon is sticking to the pan.
Once the meats are cooked through, chop the turkey bacon and add to the ground turkey sausage, combining the two together. Set aside.
In the same pan as the turkey was cooked, add a tablespoon of olive oil and ½ tsp of garlic and warm. Add sliced onions. Cook until translucent. Add the red pepper and cook until the onions and peppers are both soft and cooked through. Transfer to the paper towels to absorb the grease.
In a quiche pan, spread the turkey and bacon mixture evenly in the pan. Add the onion and pepper mixture on top of the turkey mixture, spreading evenly.
Whisk together the eggs and milk/half and half. Pour over the turkey mixture, onion, and peppers in the quiche pan. Sprinkle the green onions over the top.
Bake at 350 for 35-45 minutes until set. The eggs will puff up so make sure there is room in the pan for expansion.

- ½ cup diced sun dried tomatoes
- 1 tsp. chopped garlic
- ½ cup grated parmesan cheese

Drain the canned tomatoes. If your sun-dried tomatoes are in oil, drain, then dice. Combine the two tomatoes and mix thoroughly. Add the garlic.
In a quiche pan, spread the tomato mixture evenly in the pan. Sprinkle the parmesan evenly over the tomatoes.
Whisk together the eggs and milk/half and half. Pour over the tomato and cheese mixture, in the quiche pan.

Your home is lovely! I have a home that was built in 1930. It is stuck in 1980 with window treatments and colors that are heavy with pattern. I’m looking for ideas to freshen it up and clear it from the weight of the past. Thank you for sharing your home and ideas.
You mentioned that when you do an egg dish, you need accompanying dish. For a holiday I have used a hot curried fruit recipe alot. It’s sweet, easy and unusual. Add a chocolate brownie and voila!
Hi Libby! That sounds delicious ☺️ have to try that!
Thank you for all of your posts. Merry Christmas. ☃️
A very Merry Christmas to you and yours Rebecca! ☺️🎄♥️
I also make hot fruit with mine.
Sounds delicious Deanna! 🤗
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and all your family. Love your blogs and look for them every day.
This Christmas is extra special as it’s the last one before we start remodeling our home! I’m already planning for demolition after the new year and looking for a dumpster rental near me to handle all the debris. I wanted to make it extra special with a “final” Christmas brunch. This gave me so many great ideas! Thanks for sharing!
What are your favorite canned biscuits to use for the orange knots – there are so many kinds? The frittatas all look so good!
