Who doesn’t like breakfast? It is my favorite meal of the day!

Charcuterie boards can be made for any meal but breakfast is definitely one you can have alot of fun with. On this board, we are going to put together some of my favorite breakfast items for two. This makes a great board for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, an Anniversary or birthday. If your looking to create for a family, just double or triple the offerings based on size.

Items you will need

Hard boiled Eggs
Waffles
Sausage
Mini Cinnamon Buns
Bacon
Syrup
Jam
Grapes
Blackberries
Strawberries

Supplies you will need for serving

16′ board (for serving two, larger board if serving more)
Small jars/ramekins
Syrup pitcher
Parchment paper

How to Assemble Board

Place parchment paper down on board.

Start by placing the smaller bowls or ramekins at a north, south, east and west points. You can play around with what visually looks good.

Then place remaining food in between the jars, arranging them to your liking.

Leave the strawberries and mini cinnamon buns to the end to fill in any spaces.

Expert Tips

Prep + Cook- you will need to cook the bacon (How to Make the Best Oven Baked Bacon), eggs (How to Make the Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs) and heat up the waffles and sausage links before assembling the board.
Charcuterie Board- use whatever board you have available. The one shown is a circular 16′ board. This board is designed for two people so if you need to go bigger please feel free to do so.
Empty Space- if you find your board has any empty space you can always add decorative flowers or small candies.
Placement- place items in the small bowls on the board first then add in items to the board to fill it in.
Parchment paper- to avoid excess grease or residue on the board, place parchment paper down before assembling.
