Give me your best brunch recipes

[underwaterrhymes]

I am making H Father's Day breakfast in bed and am trying to come up with some ideas for what I want to make:

Right now I am thinking some combination of these would be good. Here are the things I'm considering.

- Baked Apple Cinnamon French Toast
- Fruit Salad
- Crab Quiche
- Vegetarian biscuits and gravy (For me. He will not eat this.)
- Bacon (For him. I will not eat this.)
- Buffalo chicken cupcakes (which is really just buffalo chicken dip in wonton wrappers baked in muffin tins; he would die because buffalo chicken anything is his favorite and I haven't cooked meat in 3 years.)
- Some sort of fabulous breakfast cocktail

I can't make all the things. Help me out here. What would you make? Feel free to add your own ideas if you make something great.

Mimosas.

Hold the OJ.

Yes. There will be alcohol.

It totally depends on your. If H likes that stuff, awesome! My H would like:

Biscuits & Gravy
Strawberry & Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast
Bloody Marys
Chocolate Milk (because he is a man-child)

I made quiche with hashbrown crust (gf) and it was tasty.
I love puff pancakes too. Easy to make.

Crepes, but more time consuming.

baked french toast for sure. Or regular french toast with maple syrup. I made this recently and it's amazing!

But it'd also be great with dinner.

For Christmas morning, I usually go all out and plan/make (along with DH) a sinfully delicious brunch.

AND ALWAYS we end up making waaaay too much food.

Pick 3 things. Trust me, by the end, you 1) won't want to cook too much (even if DH is cooking along with you) and 2) you won't want to eat so much (I know, sounds weird).

Besides, it's all about drinking anyway.

Fight coffee
Freshly squeezed grapefruit juice mimosas (GOD DAMN IT I KNOW THIS HAS A NAME AND I COULD NEVER FIND A NORMALIZED ONE!)

and french toasts/fresh whipped cream and a side or something.

done.

TRUST

Thanks everyone. I'm so tired I forgot I posted this. LOL.

@tambcat - yes, if you can send it along that would be awesome!

Definitely the baked French toast - yummy! I made this for Easter Brunch this year and it was awesome thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2010/05/cinnamon-baked-french-toast/

I haven't made this, but someone brought it to a brunch event and it was incredible!

The McCormick hollandaise sauce packets are also super good. I do poached eggs with gouda or swiss, diced sundried tomatoes and hollandaise on sesame bagels.

SO GOOD.

This is the recipe I use for baked French Toast, though I use amaretto in place of bourbon.
MIL made it at Christmas but hers was really dry. Mine was perfect, I don't know what she did wrong.
