Want to linger a little over breakfast? A relaxed morning meal is easy to pull off with a simple menu that comes together quickly but delivers big flavours. Forget prepping for hours: each component takes 30 minutes or less to pull together and is special enough to serve as a treat for yourself or to a small crowd.
Scandinavians like to melt wafer-thin chocolate on top of buttered toast. This figgy challah version pulls inspiration from those flavours. Get this chocolate toast recipe.
Smoky bacon, jammy eggs and just-ripe avocado are staples of any good brunch, and this dish brings them all together. Crisp frisée lettuce and a vibrant vinaigrette cut through the richness to keep it light and fresh. Get this bacon-and-egg frisée salad recipe.
Citrus and passion fruit make a punchy pairing. A quick sprinkling of sugar draws out their natural juices for a foolproof maceration. Use whichever variety of citrus you like–the more colourful the better. Get this macerated citrus recipe.
This granola comes together quickly using a stovetop method. Any type of honey will work, whether it’s creamed, raw or a wildflower version. Get this ginger-honey granola recipe.
