We always make sausage balls...usually DH gets them going while the kids are looking over their "take". We snack on those and save big food for mid-day.

[Cecilliadb]

Pancakes and omelets :)

I always talk my mom into making me buttermilk biscuits on Christmas to go with the eggs, bacon, and sausage.

[Guest bluesrule9]

Who has time for breakfast!?!?

[josetann]

We don't have a Christmas Day breakfast tradition, but on Christmas Eve we all go to Shoney's. Used to be the Pancake House, forget why we changed it, but it's been Shoney's for a real long time. My wife generally has to work a half shift on Christmas, so it's hard to make plans for that day.

Here's my post from last season on this very subject. Lots of overnight French toast recipes in that post.

 

Re: Chr-stmas brunch recipes?

[elena_398]

After presents are opened, I make my holiday "big breakfast" as its known here: Eggs (their choice of style), bacon, sausage, and toast. Juice also. Every holiday they get this.

[hopeky94]

Our big family meal IS Christmas breakfast, so it's an all-out feast at our house!

 

Around 4:30 or 5:00, my parents and I start the preparations (I spend the night at my parents' on Christmas Eve), in order to have it on the table for everyone by 7:00. Usually, my 2 married siblings bring a sweet dish and/or fruit. My parents and I prepare eggs, bacon, sausage, country ham, biscuits, sausage gravy, country ham ("red eye") gravy, hashbrown casserole, plus add the leaves to and set the table. Oh, and sometime in between all that, we change out of our PJs and do hair, makeup, etc. Whew!

 

So... we don't feel TOO guilty about letting my siblings do the dishes! Then after we open presents and the everyone else leaves for other gatherings, the three of us each find a comfy chair or couch and have nice, long naps!

Last year I made a delicious overnight French toast from a recipe that Gator Pam posted. This year I'm going to try another one of hers!

[bugsette]

thanks the french toast thing sounds great

[luv2shopnc]

My family used to have Christmas breakfast on Christmas Eve at midnight. Complete with molasses, fat back, eggs, grits, biscuits and the whole nine yards. Everyone has gotten older now and that tradition has faded. I sure miss it though!

[peachysquirt21]

For X-Mas it is only my mom, her sister, my hubby & me so we dont bother with breakfast. heh

[elena_398]

I love french toast, but no one else in the family does. I can't even get them to like pancakes. How unAmerican is that? LOL.

[Gator Pam]

Do they like waffles? Another thing I like to do on occasion is make up regular French toast, but instead of pan frying I cook it in a waffle iron.

[outnumbered]

I normally make a good breakfast but this year I think we are going to be in a hotel, and will probably just have pop-tarts or something in the car. It's going to be one interesting Christmas this year.

[laffnatu]

Biscuits, sausage, bacon, eggs and juice usually.

 

I love monkey bread. MMMMMMM!!

 

But chocolate gravy?? I've never heard of that before.

[Gporter34]

I am going to try the breakfast casserole this year. I found the recipe for it last year and figured I'd give it a try.

[carheel]

if my kids had there way it would be nothing, but they got a choice either cold or hot cereal or donuts.

[cleverbffool]

...while you open Breakfest

I never knew you could open breakfast.

 

But anyways cinna rolls, and spicecake french toast, + the usual fruit and coffee.
