I have never received breakfast in bed for Mother’s Day. I’ve dropped hints (many times), but for some reason my husband still hasn’t surprised me. Even though I prefer to eat breakfast after I’ve had a chance to really wake up, there seems something magical about breakfast in bed.
I love the idea of waking up to my husband and kids coming into the bedroom carrying a tray of deliciousness that they lovingly prepared. It is a very affordable, yet thoughtful gift. It isn’t hard, even for someone who doesn’t normally cook.
But it is special.
It is no secret that I love breakfast foods. I blog often about my adventures in the kitchen and more often than not, they are breakfast related. So it should really be no shock that I thought it would be fun to create a collection of Mother’s Day recipe that inspire and are perfect for breakfast in bed. I’ve covered ideas that can be made a day ahead of time, those that go straight to your hips, and a couple of healthy options.
Here are some of my favorites!
Coconut Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
Baked Cinnamon Breakfast Bites
Citrus Dream Fruit Dip (served with fresh fruit of course)
But with 23 recipes in my collection, there are so many more.
I hope some of the recipes inspired you for Mother’s Day. Breakfast in bed is different than the norm. And lets face it, there is just something nice about being pampered a bit on this one day of the year. But whether you make this for your family or have it served to you, it is sure to be delicious!
Have you ever had breakfast in bed?

May 1, 2014 at 11:35 amLet me wish you an early Happy Mother’s Day! As kids we would always make my mom breakfast in bed, even if it meant she had to lie there awake wondering how big of a mess we were making until it was ready. My son did the same thing for me. Now that I have an empty nest, I think I will make that Blueberry Coconut Coffee Cake for myself! I’m drooling over it already!
