How to…
Begin assembling your breakfast charcuterie board by placing the main ingredients, followed by bowls of fruit, jams, syrup, and butter on different parts of your board. Syrup should be placed near the french toast sticks and jam should be placed near the croissants.
Fill in the empty spots on your brunch board with cheeses, deli meats, and sliced fruit. Using your own personal style in placing items on your board makes the meal even better!
Recipe Variations
You could add additional proteins to this brunch board like smoked salmon and ham. Roasted potatoes or a more traditional hash brown casserole are also good options.
Bagels with different flavors of cream cheese is another option for your board. Add some avocado toast by smashing avocados, adding a pinch of salt and pepper and squeezing in some lime juice and spreading over toast!
Chef Tips
If you want some of your food items to be warm when served, place those items on a baking sheet in a 200 degree oven. When you are ready to assemble your brunch board, simply pull them out of the oven and place on your board last.
Cooking Temperatures
Bacon is so easy to prepare in the oven. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Place bacon on a cookie sheet on a rack placed inside or lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. I like to sprinkle the bacon with pepper, salt, and some brown sugar!
How to Store:
Store meat, eggs, potatoes, or fruit in a glass or plastic container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Bread items can be stored for up to three days on the counter top, preferably in a paper bag.
How to Reheat:
Reheat your leftovers in the oven on a low heat like 300 degrees. Leftovers are also reheated easily in the microwave. But if the board items have been handled by guests, or if they have set out for four hours, I don’t recommend saving or reusing leftovers.
Side Dish Suggestions
Some other great bread options for your brunch board are blueberry muffins, doughnuts, or cinnamon rolls! Greek yogurt is a simple source of protein and calcium that complements berries or pineapple.
