Baked French Toast with Blueberries and Lemon
I’ve made this a few times and it’s always a huge hit – everyone loves it! I double the blueberries and serve bourbon maple syrup and something savory (bacon or sausage on the side or quiche if I have a bigger crowd). Someone always asks for the recipe!!!

HOMEMADE SAUSAGE
I have been making these for months as my kids love them. I live in Europe and good old American breakfast sausage is hard to find here, if at all. I just made 3 batches of this today so thanks for this amazing recipe!

Freezer Croissant Sandwiches for breakfast
I make these all the time as food gifts for people. Everyone loves them and they are easy on the stomach. Perfect for any time of day. I usually use regular sized croissants and sometimes swap out the meat for bacon or leave it out completely for a vegetarian option. Great recipe.

Perfection! I love that you can add as much or as little syrup as you like. So glad I found a simple recipe so I could save $$!!

Cloudy waffles with strawberries and cream
delicious! So fluffy and the combination of strawberries with fresh whipped cream is amazing. I used freshly bottled orange juice and it was still good.
– Jessica
12
Honey Fried Chicken and Waffles
That was so nice! Soaking the chicken in buttermilk changed the flavor! I had to make my own buttermilk as I didn’t have any on hand so I used milk and fresh lemon juice which will be next time.
– MT
13
Salad for breakfast
Great sauce! Literally. I made it exactly as written in the recipe. It was great. New bracket. As someone else commented, on days I’m doing low carb, I’d substitute cherry or grape tomatoes for the potatoes.
– Janet
14
Coffee Cake Muffins
One of my new muffins. Perfect for breakfast/brunch. Just sweet enough without being too sweet. Just moist enough without looking too “oily/greasy” like some muffins do. Perfect with coffee or tea. I’m in love!
-Glenn
15
Breakfast Tacos
Yummm! They are very tasty, especially with homemade, sliced potatoes! I also cooked ground maple sausage so the family had a choice of bacon or sausage. I paired the tacos with Chungah Fried Zucchini. Fantastic!
– Robin
16
Starbucks Pumpkin Scones Copycat
I love this recipe. They taste just like the ones at Starbucks, only better because you pull them right out of the oven! I make these every fall and they also pair well with the Starbucks Pumpkin Latte recipe. Great for a pinch hitter like me.
– Shea
17
The best steak and eggs
Excellent! My husband LOVED it. As do my young adult children. The herb sauce added a refreshing flavor to the steak and eggs!
-Shelly
18
Granola with almond butter
I just made this granola and it tastes just as good as Trader Joe’s Almond Butter Granola! I just couldn’t bring myself to pay for another $3.99 bag for 5 servings. My internet search led me to your recipe and I will definitely be making my own from now on. thank you!!!
-Sharon
19
Pumpkin Donut Holes
wow I don’t even like donuts (yeah I know I’m boring) and these were hilarious! Everyone who has had them comments on how great they are! Save yourself and just make a double batch!!
-Amber

Raspberry Sunrise Smoothie
I made this with blueberries and a raspberry guava mix and it was delicious. It’s even better when it’s frozen and turned into sorbet.
–Anna
21
Bagel with smoked salmon
AWESOME!!! Smoked salmon and mini bagels with toppings were DELICIOUS. A family favorite and a perfect breakfast/brunch.
– Sandy

Make pre-breakfast cracker sandwiches
DD does it again! This was my first time making cookies from scratch and they turned out great!
– Angela

Easy Overnight Oats
Loved this, thank you so much Chungah and team!! So far I’ve tried the pumpkin and strawberry ones, both of which tasted great and were much more flavorful than hot oatmeal recipes with similar ingredients! The layering tip is spot on, they weren’t wet at all the next morning.
– Dee

Blueberry Oatmeal Pancakes with Yogurt
These are my favorite pancakes!! I really like it as it is, but I’ve also swapped half a cup of the flour for chickpea flour, oat flour, or almond flour and it still holds up!
