15 Special Breakfasts for Your Christmas Morning

Julie Grice is a blogger who shares her wisdom with us at SheSpeaks.

Do you open gifts before or after breakfast on Christmas morning? In my parents' house, when the gifts have been unwrapped and the stockings unstuffed, it is time for a breakfast of fluffy scrambled eggs and sweet cinnamon rolls. My husband and I have started a new tradition in our own home; we feast on frittatas and fresh biscuits before settling in front of the tree with mugs of hot chocolate to open our gifts.

Whatever your traditions, Christmas morning calls for a festive breakfast! If you don't want to take the time to cook, you can use some of the Smitten Kitchen's tips to prepare a make-ahead brunch.

Below, I've rounded up 15 of my favorite festive breakfast dishes from blogs across the web; some are suitable for make-ahead, others will require a bit of time in the morning. Enjoy!
