Fun Easter Themed Breakfast Ideas
Having an Easter-themed breakfast for kids is an absolute blast! Picture this: fluffy pancakes shaped like bunnies, sunny-side-up eggs pretending to be Easter chicks, and colorful fruit skewers resembling Easter eggs!
It’s like bringing the joy of the Easter egg hunt and Easter games right to the breakfast table. The best part? Watching their little faces light up with excitement as they gobble down their delicious creations. Plus, it’s a fantastic way to kick off the Easter festivities and get everyone in the holiday spirit!
Here are some cute Easter themed breakfast ideas for kids.
Bunny Pancakes
Who can resist a fluffy pancake? But we’re not talking about just any pancakes; we’re talking about bunny-shaped pancakes that will make everyone at the table giggle with delight. Use your favorite pancake batter, pour it into a bunny shape on the griddle, or make a regular pancake and use fruit to create a bunny face! Think banana slices for ears, blueberries for eyes, and a little raspberry for the nose. Not only are they adorable, but they’re also delicious and a great way to start the day!
Egg-cellent Bunny Breads
Imagine soft, warm bread shaped like bunnies with a perfectly cooked egg in the center. Yes, please! You can make bunny-shaped rolls and carve a little pocket for the egg to nestle in before baking. It’s a charming and savory way to bring a touch of Easter to your breakfast table. Or bake some braided bread and pop in some easter eggs once cooked.
Easter Oatmeal
Let’s take a healthy twist with a breakfast that the Easter Bunny itself would approve of – carrot cake oatmeal! Mix grated carrots into your morning oatmeal, add a dash of cinnamon, some vanilla extract, and a drizzle of maple syrup for that sweet, carrot cake flavor. Top with a dollop of cream cheese frosting (because why not?), and you’ve got yourself a bowl of comfort that’s both nutritious and festive.
Or if your little ones prefer a more traditional oatmeal, you can make their favorite blend and top with a cute bunny made of bananas and berries.
Bunny Fruit Platter
Who said playing with your food isn’t fun? Create a bunny-shaped fruit platter that’s as colorful as it is healthy. Use sliced bananas and apples for the bunny’s body, add some blueberries or grapes for the eyes, a raspberry for the nose, and thinly sliced carrots or strawberries for the whiskers. It’s a refreshing, sweet start to the day that’s also a feast for the eyes!
Easter Smoothies
Blend up a batch of vibrant smoothies using your favorite fruits and a handful of spinach or kale to sneak in those greens (shh, I won’t tell if you won’t!). Serve them in clear cups with decorated Easter egg faces drawn on the outside for a fun and nutritious breakfast drink that will have everyone sipping with a smile.
Easter Bagels
Who doesn’t love a good bagel in the morning? Let’s give it an Easter twist! Use cream cheese or a fun flavored spread as the base. For the bunny face, slice a strawberry or a piece of ham for the nose, use cucumber or apple slices for the ears, and finish with blueberries or small olives for the eyes. It’s a hoppy, savory treat that’s bound to bring out some smiles!
Easter Bunny Shaped Pizza
Who says pizza isn’t a breakfast food? Let’s break the rules with an Easter bunny shaped pizza that’s both savory and incredibly fun. Use your favorite pizza dough (store-bought or homemade), and shape it into a bunny silhouette.
For a breakfast twist, top with scrambled eggs, cheese, and your choice of breakfast meats like ham or bacon. Bake until golden and bubbly, and you’ve got a savory breakfast masterpiece that’s almost too cute to eat. Almost.
Easter French Toast
Give your French toast an Easter makeover by cutting the bread into bunny shapes before dipping it into the egg mixture. Cook until golden brown and then let the creativity flow! Use fruits, nuts, and whipped cream to add facial features and make each bunny unique. It’s a sweet start to the day that’s also a feast for the eyes.
Easter Pastel Colored Milkshakes
Imagine starting your day with a milkshake that looks as magical as it tastes. Whip up some thick and creamy milkshakes using vanilla ice cream as a base, then divide the shake into separate bowls. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl to achieve those dreamy pastel Easter colors.
For an extra health kick, blend in some frozen bananas or avocado for creaminess, and a spoonful of Greek yogurt for a protein boost. Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of pastel-colored sprinkles for that final festive touch!
Soup Served in a Toasted Bread Bowl
For a cozy and comforting start to your Easter, how about serving a savory soup inside a hollowed-out toasted roll? It’s a warm hug in a bowl (or bread) that everyone will love. Choose a light and springy soup like carrot, or a creamy asparagus to keep it seasonal. The toasted bread soaks up the soup just enough, making every bite divine. Plus, it’s an all-in-one meal with no cleanup required. Win-win!
Quick & Easy Bunny Cheese and Ham
For a no-fuss yet adorable breakfast option, cut slices of cheese and ham into bunny shapes using a cookie cutter. Serve these cute critters alongside a cheerful fruit salad for a balanced and easy-peasy Easter breakfast. It’s a simple yet effective way to bring the festive spirit to your morning without spending hours in the kitchen. The kids (and kids at heart) will absolutely love it!
The Egg-cellent Peanut Butter Sprinkle Sandwich
Whip up an incredibly simple yet utterly delightful Easter breakfast with just a few pantry staples. Start with two slices of your favorite bread, maybe a hearty whole grain for a wholesome twist or a soft brioche for a bit of indulgence.
Lightly toast them for that perfect crunch. Then, take an egg-shaped cookie cutter and press it into one slice to create a playful peek-a-boo effect. Spread a thick layer of peanut butter, creamy or crunchy, on the other slice, and then comes the magic, sprinkle a rainbow of sprinkles over the peanut butter. The colors will peek through the egg-shaped cutout.
There you have it, some egg-citing Easter Bunny breakfast ideas to kickstart your holiday with a bang. Whether you’re in the mood for something sweet or savory, there’s something here for everyone to enjoy.
So, put on your bunny ears, gather your ingredients, and let’s make this Easter morning the most memorable one yet. Happy cooking, and even happier eating!
