Whether you’re hosting a small gathering for family and loved ones or just looking for something new to try, these easy brunch recipes will surely make your Christmas morning special:
No Christmas brunch would be complete without a little festive flavour, and gingerbread pancakes are the perfect way to start Christmas morning. You can easily find this recipe on Chef Archana Doshi’s page. These warm, spiced pancakes bring the aromas of cinnamon and ginger straight to the breakfast table, and they’re so easy to whip up. The rich molasses flavour adds depth, making each bite comforting and aromatic. You can top it with maple syrup and whipped cream.
Who doesn’t love a good omelette? But why not elevate the humble egg with a little Indian flair? A masala omelette is packed with flavours from vegetables and spices. Simply whisk eggs with chopped onions, tomatoes, green chilies, and a pinch of turmeric, cumin, and garam masala. Pour the mixture into a hot pan and cook until golden and fluffy. Serve this spiced omelette with buttered toast, or pair it with warm parathas that are perfect for a festive Christmas brunch. You can find this recipe on Tarla Dalal’s official page.
3. Pesarattu
Looking for something gluten-free or light for Christmas brunch? Try making Pesarattu, a savory pancake made from green gram (moong dal). You can find this recipe on Sanjeev Kapoor’s YouTube channel. Soaked and ground moong dal is seasoned with ginger, green chillies, coriander, cumin seeds, salt, and onions, and then cooked like a pancake on a griddle. The batter is naturally thick, and when cooked, it turns crispy on the outside while staying soft and fluffy inside. You can serve Pesarattu with coconut chutney or tangy tomato chutney to enhance the flavors. This dish is nutritious, and tasty, and offers a unique flavour profile that’s different from your regular brunch fare.
