Easy Brunch Recipes You’ll Love On Weekends

A Complete Meal of Easy Brunch Recipes For Weekend Suprise Home Visits

My mom and dad are so fond of giving us surprise visits during weekends. One minute they’re calling me to say that they are coming over, the next thing they’re already right at our doorsteps! I have prepared cookies for them, appetizers, healthy pastry bars and just recently, brunch dishes.

So, for a change, and to keep their sugar levels normal, I now keep as much easy brunch recipes as I can to equip myself during these unguarded moments. 🙂 No need to rattle your brain as to which dish would go perfectly with which because this is already a complete healthy meal. Ready to prepare brunch?

Brunch Recipe #1

Ham & Swiss Puff Pastry Bundles

Ingredients

• 1 sheet of Puff Pastry Dough
• 1 tbsp of Olive Oil
• 1 bunch of Asparagus, trimmed
• 4 slices of Ham
• 4 slices of Swiss cheese
• 1 pcs of Egg
• 1 tbsp of water

Procedure

1. Cut pastry dough

First, you sprinkle a little flour on the table and then lay down your pastry dough. Cut it into 3.5-inch squares and then set aside.

2. Oil asparagus

Lightly coat your asparagus with olive oil to prevent the asparagus from burning when you bake them.

3. Arrange fillings

Arrange the bundle like so: Pastry dough at the bottom, followed by the ham, the cheese and the asparagus on top.

4. Fold into bundle

Fold all of the layers into a bundle by slightly pressing the tip of the dough on the top together.

5. Prepare egg wash and brush

To prepare the egg wash, simply whisk 1 tbsp. of water and egg together.

Then just cover the bundles with the egg wash with a pastry brush.

6. Bake and serve

Put it into the oven at  425ºF for about 15 to 20 minutes. Serve and enjoy!

Brunch Recipe #2

Sour Cream & Chive Scrambled Eggs

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp of Butter OR Oil for cooking
• 3 pcs of Eggs
• 2 tbsp of Sour Cream
• 2 tsp of Chives, freshly chopped
• Salt and Pepper

Procedure

1. Combine eggs and sour cream

Combine sour cream and eggs together in a mixing bowl until smooth.

2. Cook, season and serve

Melt butter in the pan and cook with constant stirring. When your eggs are fully cooked, sprinkle your salt, pepper, and chives, then combine. Done and ready for plating!

Brunch Recipe #3

Homemade Whipped Cream

Ingredients

• 1 cup of Whipping cream
• 2-3 tbsps of Icing sugar
• ½ tsp of Vanilla Extract

Procedure

1. Mix all ingredients

Combine all your ingredients really well with an electric mixer or whisking it by hand will also do.

2. Serve when ready

You will know that it’s ready when it sticks to the whisk this way. Top it on your berry bowl and serve.

Tips:

1. The egg wash is very important because it will make your dough achieve that golden flaky crust.
2. The trick to having creamy scrambled eggs is by constantly moving them until they are fully cooked.
3. Salt makes your eggs dry up so add them at the last part of cooking.
