If you’re anything like I am, and you fall into a breakfast slump every now and again, this post is for you!

What do you turn to when you’re in a hurry or not feeling especially inspired at breakfast time? Me? Toast. Toast toast TOAST. Toast with butter. Toast with jam. Toast with peanut butter. Toast with coffee. Toast with tea.
As they say, desperate times call for desperate measures… Today’s desperate measure? A Popular Breakfast Recipe round-up! It’s time to wake up those sleepy taste buds! I’m sharing some of CCB’s most popular breakfast recipes with the hopes of lighting a breakfast fire for myself, and maybe you too!! 🙂
Speaking of toast… (Couldn’t resist 😉 )
Roasted Strawberries & Pistachios with Vanilla Bean Whipped Mascarpone Crostini
And if you think its name is a delicious mouthful – wait ’til you try it!!

Straight from the oven or toasted to a perfect crisp; whether slathered in butter, cream cheese, peanut butter or jelly – these bagels are simply delectable!

If given the choice, 9 out of 10 mornings my hubby would choose these cranberry almond biscotti to have with his first cuppa joe!

Precisely what I want right now – eggs poached in a spicy, herbaceous tomato sauce that can be ready in less than 30 minutes! Perfect for dinner too!

Bourbon Barrel Aged Maple Syrup Pancakes with Whipped Cream and Blackberries
One word – YESSSSS!

Brown Sugar Roasted Grapefruit
Doesn’t this just scream Spring?

Tropical Smoothie Bowl with Chia Seeds
Who couldn’t get behind this bowl of sunshine? Quick, refreshing, healthy, tasty, filling, and today, tropical!

Zucchini & Olive Oil Bread with Lemon Crunch Drizzle
There’s something about crunchy citrus-y drizzle-y drizzle on soft sweet cake-y zucchini bread that has me thinking that it’s time to get in the kitchen!

Some days call for rustic cooking, and this Italian free-form tart filled with paper thin sliced Bartlett pears, brown sugar and cinnamon fits the bill!

Rumchata French Toast with Warm Berry Compote
A shot or two of RumChata whisked with eggs to help create a silky coat for French Toast has ‘special breakfast’ written all over it!

If you decide to give any of these scrumptious breakfasts a whirl – I’d love your feedback and photos! Tag @ciaochowbambina on Instagram, or share to my Pinterest and Facebook page!
Buon Appetito!

Oh my, Annie! Which one to choose?! I rarely eat breakfast foods. I either eat leftovers from dinner or I cook up a hamburger. But now that I know roasted strawberries and mascarpone crostini counts as breakfast – I’m on it! Lovely!
I want a hamburger for breakfast! I read the other day that pizza for breakfast is healthier than cereal! I’m in!!
Breakfast is my favorite meal…especially when someone wants to make it for me! Regardless, you have some great ones on here and I can’t wait to get to it, even though it is suppertime!
Hahaha! I am with you! Nothin better than when someone else makes you breakfast….or a sandwich! 🙂
I will need to cook my way through the entire list Annie! What a delicious list of breakfast dishes! Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you for stopping by, Mary Ann! 🙂
Delicious! I want to try them all 🙂 In fact, I will be doing so very soon!
Yesss! Enjoy, my friend!!
What an array of beautiful breakfast treats.
Thank you, Karen!!
I totally get into a breakfast rut sometimes! For me, it always involved eggs! LOL! Thanks for a post of inspiration!! Those bourbon barrel aged stack of pancakes is calling my name!!
hahaha! Yep – I’ve been there! Scrambled, fried…but always with toast! 😉
I tend to eat the same breakfast everyday, Annie – toast and avocado. So I love all these different choices you are sharing – such good ideas. I particularly want to try making the bagels – they look amazing!
And making bagels is just so fun!!
Such a great round-up of breakfast goodness! So many great ideas, no one needs to settle for toast 🙂
We truly never have to settle! 🙂
I do love breakfast but there are many days when it’s toast for me too! That stack of pancakes looks mighty delicious too! I think I’m set for breakfast plans for a while now! Thanks!!!
Hahaha! Glad I could help! 😉 (Gotta love toast, though!)
Yes, these are ALL GREAT! So many options to make breakfast the best meal of the day!
Don’t you just LOVE breakfast?!!! Me too! 😉
I am such a breakfast fanatic. If I was faced with all of these options at a breakfast buffet I would have so much trouble deciding what to choose. Maybe a bit of everything!?
A bit of everything always works for me!! Thanks, friend!
I want to try them all, Annie! Where to begin? If I absolutely have to choose, I’ll start with that stack of perfectly fluffy pancakes, syrup, whipped cream, and berries. Heaven! Have a wonderful week, my friend!
Hard to resist these pancakes!! Thank you, my friend!
So many great options here! I am very partial to the eggs in purgatory…It is raining outside, just got up after all kinds of celebrations this past weekend – so guess what…We are having them for breakfast:)
Yay! Enjoy, my friend! 🙂
Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day and now I’m starving–plus, I’m in a yogurt-with-fruit rut right now. I’m going to have to try a few of these recipes soon. I’m thinking bagels first (because bagels are always the best!). Have a great week, Annie!
Bagels are the best! And these are no exception! Yogurt with fruit sounds pretty good right now, too! 🙂
I think breakfast/brunch is the BEST meal of the day! Especially if its on a lazy Saturday morning and in good company. I don’t know where to start first, Annie – totally drooling here!
I couldn’t agree more! Thank you, Traci!
What a lovely collection of recipes! Definitely have to keep in mind for our next weekend’s brunch. There’s absolutely no going wrong with anything here, my friend 🙂 The hardest thing is to pick what we’ll have. Happy Monday to ya!
Yaaas, Music to my ears! Thank you, friend! Have a great week! 🙂
