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!
Annie says
I want a hamburger for breakfast! I read the other day that pizza for breakfast is healthier than cereal! I’m in!!
Abbe@This is How I Cook says
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 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!!
Annie says
hahaha! Yep – I’ve been there! Scrambled, fried…but always with toast! 😉
Geraldine | Green Valley Kitchen says
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!
Annie says
And making bagels is just so fun!!
Jennifer @ Seasons and Suppers says
Such a great round-up of breakfast goodness! So many great ideas, no one needs to settle for toast 🙂
Annie says
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!!!
Annie says
Hahaha! Glad I could help! 😉 (Gotta love toast, though!)
Kevin says
Yes, these are ALL GREAT! So many options to make breakfast the best meal of the day!
Annie says
Don’t you just LOVE breakfast?!!! Me too! 😉
Katherine | Love In My Oven says
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!?
Annie says
A bit of everything always works for me!! Thanks, friend!
Marissa says
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!
Annie says
Hard to resist these pancakes!! Thank you, my friend!
Milena says
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:)
Annie says
Yay! Enjoy, my friend! 🙂
Kelsie | the itsy-bitsy kitchen says
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!
Annie says
Bagels are the best! And these are no exception! Yogurt with fruit sounds pretty good right now, too! 🙂
Traci | Vanilla And Bean says
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!
Annie says
I couldn’t agree more! Thank you, Traci!
Dawn - Girl Heart Food says
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!
Annie says
Yaaas, Music to my ears! Thank you, friend! Have a great week! 🙂
