In addition to ushering in spring, Easter is a great opportunity to make a festive meal worth eating for loved ones.
Preparing a delicious brunch for the holiday will be welcome by friends and families. If you’re in charge of feeding everyone for the Easter festivities, try these recipes from a non-traditional Easter ham to pastel cocktails.
Spicy Orange Honey Glazed Ham
Liz Andrew
If you're still trying to figure out a centerpiece for your Easter brunch, don’t worry. This ham is here for you. Bonus: The leftovers will make killer sandwiches for days to come.
Brussels Sprouts with Crispy Pancetta
Liz Andrew
We’ll see your crispy Brussels sprouts with bacon and raise you some pancetta.
Kale Salad with Crispy Chickpeas
Liz Andrew
The crispy chickpeas work as a snack all by themselves, but they also round out this big salad perfectly.
Roasted Cauliflower Mac and Cheese
Liz Andrew
There really is no bad version of mac and cheese, but using roasted cauliflower like this recipe does adds a roasty, nuttiness that will make it stand out. Plus you can tell people there are vegetables in it to convince them it’s healthy.
Gluten Free Raspberry Pavlova
Liz Andrew
If you’ve never had pavlova before think of it as a cake without the cake. Airy layers of meringue take the place of the starch for a dessert that’s not only light, but gluten free.
Lemon and Olive Oil Cake
Liz Andrew
Different people have their own secrets to making a super moist cake, but as far as we’re concerned, using olive is one of the best tricks you can use.
Muffin Tin Lemon Meringue Tarts
Liz Andrew
When you need to make single serving desserts (or single serving anything, really) the muffin tin is your saving grace. These tarts are actually incredibly easy to make, but they look so impressive no one will ever know.
Cardamom Cream-Filled Bundt Cake
Matt Dutile
Erin McDowell, author of The Fearless Baker, designed this recipe to be like a giant version of a Swedish dessert called semlor. As we know, anything coming from Sweden is delightful. So this light, spiced dessert is delightful. Q.E.D.
Big Batch Pink Negronis
Jon Cospito
What’s brunch without a cocktail? This big bowl of negronis comes out looking as pretty as the flowers that are just coming into bloom. But don’t let that fool you. It also has three and a half cups of booze in it.
