Whether the youngsters are waking up at dawn to attack the present pile, or if you rise at a leisurely hour, Christmas breakfast and brunch can be a great tradition. Start the day with whatever rings your fancy: French toast, egg dishes, homemade sausage patties (super easy!), hash browns better than your favorite diner’s, or maybe a rich coffee cake?
Even chocolate spaghetti from TikTok fame. Then wash it all down with a mug of hot chocolate (or cocoa – we have both), or how about a glass of bubbly? 30 recipes to tantalize and something for all ages. The first recipe is prepped the night before!

Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls
Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls are an indulgent treat. They are rich with butter and sugarand the cream cheese frosting truly gilds the lily. Cinnamon rolls should be a bit yeasty, and springy, with a pronounced brown sugar/cinnamon flavor and our low FODMAP version hits all these points. Toppings vary from light glazes to American-style buttercreams, but our research told us that you all like Cream Cheese Frosting, so that is what we created for you. Lactose-free, of course. There is a fair amount of sugar and fat in these Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls as well; always eat to your tolerances.
Gluten-Free Caramel Pecan Sticky Buns
Ahhh this recipe for Low FODMAP Gluten-Free Caramel Pecan Sticky Buns has been a long time in the making. Here we have extra-sticky maple caramel pecan topping with our yeasty-springy buns, rolled around a cinnamon brown sugar filling. Yes, they are rich, and you have to know your sugar and fat tolerances. But as an occasional indulgence, you will not find better gluten-free Caramel Pecan Sticky Buns that also happen to be low FODMAP!
Home Fries
We think the best Home Fries start with starchy potatoes, like russets. They will create that creamy interior and crusty exterior that we look for in a great home fries recipe. Parboiling the potatoes first until a bit tender, but still firm and not fully cooked, also helps achieve the desired end result. You can peel the potatoes, or keep the peel on, or do a combo approach. Get the recipe for Home Fries.
Hash Browns Potatoes
The key to making crispy hash browns is simply patience. Once you put the potatoes in the pan, wait before you move them around. You want a nice crust to form on the bottom before you flip them. You need a heavy 10-inch (25 cm) skillet for this recipe; we like using cast iron. Hash Browns are the quintessential breakfast or brunch potato dish, but they are also great alongside your dinner proteins. Get the recipe for Hash Browns Potatoes.
