5 Easy Christmas & New Years Breakfast Recipes (2024)

I have 5 easy Christmas and New Year’s Day breakfast recipes for you today. It’s great when I can make my breakfast recipes ahead of time, don’t you? I can’t believe how fast this year has gone by for me. I’m now getting ready to make the grocery list for Christmas Eve and for breakfast the following morning.

My daughters and I make one of these recipes every year the day before so all we have to do is bake one of them the next morning while presents are being opened. Each year we try to visit a different daughter and her family. Oh, how our family has grown from years ago, and oh how we love morning brunch with everyone enjoying time together.

We serve bacon with every breakfast and this is how we do it. We buy thickly sliced bacon at Costco and put it in a 9 by 13-inch pan. I used to use a cookie sheet to bake our bacon, but I have switched to a lasagna pan. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and place the raw bacon strips in the pan, yes they will overlap, no worries. My Favorite 9 by 13-Pan

Be sure and keep checking on it because bacon can be sliced so many different ways so it may cook slower or faster. I bake mine for about 30-45 minutes depending on how crispy the family wants it that day. Can you almost smell the bacon baking in the oven? When it’s cooked to your desired doneness, use tongs or forks to place the bacon on some paper towels to drain.
