Christmas Morning Breakfast Ideas And Recipes

In the event you could use some suggestions for items that are equal to the day and celebration—but also easy, quick, family- and budget-friendly—I offer my family favorites for your consideration!

3-Ingredient Cinnamon Rolls

There was a time that I felt compelled to rise early on Christmas morning to bake Cinnamon Rolls—my family’s breakfast starter item of choice on that very special day of the year.

Those days are gone. I’m done with that routine and not because I don’t love my family.

Now I sleep in until 40 minutes before I want everyone to wake up to the smell of fresh, hot, decadent, perfect-every-time Cinnamon Rolls with heavy cream and brown sugar.

I may regret letting the cat out of the bag on this because they still think I’m a world-class Cinnamon Roll baker. But for right now, I’m excited to show-and-tell the most outrageously awesome food hack I’ve ever discovered.

You’re going to doubt me as we get started here, but you shouldn’t. Trust me on this. Magnificent Cinnamon Rolls in no more than 40 minutes from start to glorious finish.

Ok, here we go:

Apple Fritter Waffle Donuts

I see many delicious-looking things as I spend time searching the Internet, searching, and researching. But rarely if ever, do I come across something so compelling, appealing, and downright decadent that it stops me in my tracks and sends me flying to the kitchen to give it a try. I mean really, could there be anything more perfect than an Apple Fritter Waffle Donut?

This is not health food. AFWDs are a special treat, a secret addition to your next camping trip; a Christmas morning breakfast indulgence. A lovely item alongside the best semi-homemade Cinnamon Rolls of all time, anytime!
