21 Make Ahead Christmas Breakfast Recipes

Make ahead Christmas breakfast recipes for a special stress free morning.

I have two presents for you this post.

Besides the make ahead breakfast ideas, we also have a HUGE gift card giveaway with prizes available as early as Thanksgiving night… just in time for Black Friday shopping.

Keep scrolling past the recipes to enter the Cash for Christmas Giveaway!

Coffee Cakes

These are good straight out of the oven, but even better the next day.

• Buttery Pecan Swirl Coffee Cake
• Cream Cheese Coffee Cake with Pecan Streusel
• New York Style Crumb Cake

Scones, Donuts or Croissants

Scones are always a hit in my house and they are quick and easy to make. Croissants are easy but take a lot of resting time, luckily you can make them ahead and just pop them in the oven to reheat before serving.

• Baked Chocolate Donuts
• Chocolate Croissants
• Eggnog Scones
• Honey Lavender Scones
• Orange Cranberry Scones
• Vegan Almond Scones

Muffins or Breads

Yeast dough is wonderful for the holidays, but that long rise time makes it a pain for Christmas morning. My husband had Kolache every Christmas morning growing up. My mother in law always made it well ahead of time and froze it, then left it out the night before to thaw.

• Homemade Bagels
• Cinnamon Swirl Bread
• Cranberry Roasted Pecan Muffins
• Gingerbread
• Kolache
• Lemon Streusel Muffins
• Sourdough Cranberry Cinnamon Rolls
• Triple Chocolate Muffins
• Whole Orange Cranberry Bread

Waffles or Crepes

Both the waffles and crepes can be made ahead and heated in the oven just before serving.

• Basic Crepes
• Sourdough Crepes
• Sourdough Waffles
• Yeasted Waffles
