I’m really not a complicated person, in fact for Mother’s Day, all I really want is
to relax at home with my kids and my husband (and maybe some breakfast in
bed or even just a cup of coffee).

But I like to give my
Mom the day off, so I usually host a very casual brunch with my parents
and family. Everyone brings something and it’s usually a fun, relaxed afternoon. If this sounds like something you do with your family, I though I would share some of my
favorite Skinny Brunch recipes.

For starters, I wouldn’t mind waking up to the smell of Chocolate Chip Banana Pancakes^[1] (hint hint if my husband is reading this) as pictured above. They are light and fluffy with chocolate chips in every bite.

When it comes to muffins, these Insanely Good Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins^[2] are one of my favorites (and healthy too), made with antioxidant rich blueberries and good for your heart oatmeal.

I’m such a sucker for scones, especially when they involve chocolate like these Skinny Chocolate Chip Buttermilk Scones^[3] which everyone loves, perfect with a cup of tea.

Baked oatmeal is usually my go-to breakfast for brunch because I can make it the day before, then heat it up. This Baked Oatmeal with Blueberries and Bananas^[4] is my favorite (it’s like dessert for breakfast)!

If you are feeding a crowd, I love making Bananas Fosters Overnight French Toast^[5] (omyword!) because you do most of the work the night before….

This Applesauce Nut Bread^[6] with cinnamon and spice is so moist and delicious, with small bits of fresh apples and walnuts in every bite and can also be made a day in advance.

For something a little more savory, I love this Swiss Chard Frittata^[7] made with caramelized onions and dark leafy greens.

Or these Baked Eggs with Wilted Spinach^[8]…

Easy Crust-less Spinach Feta Pie^[9] is also a favorite for brunch, I could eat this every day!

And for something a little sweeter, if you are looking for a dessert, I just love these Skinny Hummingbird Cupcakes…^[10]

What are your plans for Mother’s Day?
