Apple Almond Crisp
Crisps always seem to be a crowd-pleaser, and this one is warming from the inside out with apples and cinnamon. It'll be even better with some coffee on the side! (via Brit + Co)
Strawberries & Cream Croissant French Toast

Vegan Lemon Scones
Any brunch food that's zesty from lemon or any other citrus is perfect for spring. Take these vegan lemon scones for example – both the scone dough and the glaze are made using lemon juice and lemon zest for that bright bite you're looking for. It's all balanced out well by sugar and honey, too. (via Brit + Co)
Make-Ahead Baked French Toast
Make-ahead dishes like these baked oats are the real winners when it comes to brunch ideas. Simply prep everything in a pan and let it sit in the fridge overnight before it's ready to bake. This means you can go to bed early and sleep in the next day! (via Brit + Co)
Oat Milk Crepes
Crepes – though you wouldn't think it – are way easier to make than pancakes, and they're a good option for brunch ideas that are on the lighter side. These ones are made using plant-based ingredients, so the whole brunch party can enjoy them! Lemons, berries, or any other fruit would be a beautiful garnish for this dish! (via The Edgy Veg)
Peach Overnight Oats
Overnight oats are another amazing hack when it comes to make-ahead brunch ideas. This recipe uses only a handful of pantry staples to create something so creamy and sweet! Plus, using fresh peaches will yield a bite that's fresh and juicy, every single time. (via Hello Little Home)
Waffle Brunch Board
When all other brunch ideas fall flat, you can count on this one to feed a crowd! The best part about this waffle board is you can just as easily use store-bought waffles, and it'll be delish. Your guests will adore being able to customize their plate! Make sure to beef up your board with tons of fresh fruit, yogurt, jam, and syrup! (via Crowded Kitchen)
Easy French Omelette with Bacon, Potatoes & Zucchini
This big French omelette requires zero flipping or folding, making the cooking process so much easier! You'll just pre-cook the bacon, throw everything in a pan, and let it cook until firm, sort of like a casserole. This spring brunch idea can feed multiple people with ease. (via Vikalinka)
Homemade Funfetti Pancakes
It's amazing what a bit of rainbow sprinkles can do to really make your brunch ideas feel special. These colorful pancakes are the perfect celebratory food to eat for a brunch party, birthday, or just because. Just don't skip the insanely sweet almond glaze! (via Kathryn's Kitchen)
Fruit & Yogurt Parfaits with Easy Granola
