Hear the “Yums” on Christmas Morn!


Lemon Cranberry Pull Aparts

My son helped me come up with this new recipe in the kitchen a few weeks ago. Since we had an excess of dried cranberries, and I try to keep my fridge stocked with refrigerated biscuits, we added a few other ingredients in to make this tasty morning treat.

I’d say this is perfect for Christmas Morn, and the presentation is fabulous!

    Looks great! We’ll be making orange Rhodes rolls, fresh o.j. and probably lots of good coffee and hot chocolate! We keep it easy and simple, the less work for mom the better!

    We always have giant popovers on Christmas morning along with fresh pineapple, citrus salad, sausages, fried potatoes w/onion and peppers (red and green of course) and sparkling beverages. Traditionally the Grandparents would join us.

    sometimes we have ovenbaked french toast, sometimes pancakes…but I’m thinking cranberry lemon pull aparts need to be on the breakfast menu this year! Yum!

    We usually have stuffed french toast, fresh fruit, baked ham, juice and coffee. I think we will try the pull-apart with a big carafe of hot tea or coffee. Just hubby and me now so I will cut this down a little. We plan to kick back and relax a little.

    We usually have a big breakfast casserole spread, as in three different kinds, each year. This might have to make an appearance as well. This looks delicious!
