Last Updated on November 22, 2018 by Kimberly Crawford

Wouldn’t it be lovely to have a scrumptious, soul-warming breakfast waiting for you when all the stockings and presents are unwrapped on Christmas morning?

Wouldn’t it be even better if the breakfast had the option of being made ahead, so you wouldn’t have to wash a bunch of additional pots and pans on Christmas? An oven baked apple pancake can be the perfect solution to this dilemma, and it’s easy to make, it reheats well, and most importantly, it tastes delicious!

#1. Christmas Morning Menu

• Selection of Juices: Apple Juice, Cranberry Juice, Orange Juice
• Fruit Salad (canned or fresh): be creative here and use the fruits that your family enjoys most.
• Oven Baked Apple Pancake
• Coffee and/or hot tea

Fruit Salad Suggestions

Possible combinations for a delightful and seasonal fruit salad are:

• Canned mandarin orange segments, canned pineapple chunks, shredded coconut
• Chopped apples and pears, soaked in pineapple juice to prevent browning, tossed with raisins
• Selection of melon chunks and green and red grapes
• Fresh strawberries to dip in a sweet and fluffy dip made from cream cheese, powdered sugar and marshmallow fluff. For the dip, use an electric mixer to blend equal parts of the softened cream cheese, confectioners’ sugar and Fluff until the mixture is creamy and smooth.

Oven Baked Apple Pancake

There are several recipes that you can utilize for your oven baked apple pancake. This filling breakfast is laden with cinnamon and sugar flavor, and glazed with tart and tangy Granny Smith apples!
