Deliciously Decorative Holiday Brunch Ideas to Delight Both Kids and Adults
As the holiday season approaches, many of us are looking for creative and delicious ways to celebrate with our loved ones. One of the best ways to do this is by hosting a holiday brunch. But what could be served at a holiday brunch that is decorative, tasty, and both kids and adults would eat it? The answer lies in a combination of traditional holiday foods, creative presentation, and a touch of whimsy. Here are some deliciously decorative holiday brunch ideas that will delight both kids and adults.
1. Festive Pancake Stacks
Pancakes are a brunch staple that both kids and adults love. Make them festive by using food coloring to create red and green pancakes. Stack them high and top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of powdered sugar. You can even use cookie cutters to make them into holiday shapes like stars or Christmas trees.
2. Santa Claus Strawberries
For a healthy and festive option, create Santa Claus strawberries. Simply slice the top off a strawberry, add a dollop of whipped cream for the ‘face’, place the ‘hat’ back on, and add two chocolate sprinkles for the ‘eyes’. These are not only adorable but also a great way to encourage kids to eat fruit.
3. Holiday Quiche
A quiche is a great option for a holiday brunch as it can be prepared ahead of time and is a hit with adults. To make it festive, use a variety of colorful vegetables like red bell peppers and spinach. You can also use a star-shaped cookie cutter to create decorative pieces of toast to serve on the side.
4. Snowman Donuts
Kids will love these snowman donuts. Simply stack two mini donuts, add a bacon scarf, and use icing to create the face and buttons. These are not only cute but also a delicious treat.
5. Christmas Tree Waffles
Another great idea is to make Christmas tree waffles. Use a waffle maker to create the waffles and then cut them into triangle shapes. Stack them to create a tree shape and use a strawberry or a star fruit slice for the top. You can also add some whipped cream ‘snow’ and a drizzle of green icing.
These are just a few ideas for a deliciously decorative holiday brunch. The key is to use traditional holiday colors and shapes to create a festive atmosphere. With a little creativity, you can create a holiday brunch that is not only delicious but also a feast for the eyes.
