How to Build the Perfect Vegan Easter Brunch

Before you dive into the recipes, let's talk about menu planning for a second. If you're putting together a full spread, this is how I usually build it:

  • Pick 1-2 savory mains (like quiche, frittata, or hash)
  • Add 1 griddle item (pancakes, waffles, or French toast)
  • Include 1-2 fresh sides or salads for balance
  • Choose 2-3 desserts (something citrusy + something chocolate works great)
  • Finish with 1-2 drinks like coffee, matcha, or a smoothie
