25 delicious breakfast and brunch recipes
We get it, weekday mornings are busy. It can be difficult to get yourself—and any younger members of your household—out the door on time, let alone to ensure everyone has had what's long been called "the most important meal of the day." According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 15% of U.S. adults skip breakfast on any given day. But research has shown that eating a nutrient-rich breakfast is indeed beneficial; the meal is linked to improved heart health, reduced diabetes risk, and better alertness and focus, according to the Cleveland Clinic.
However, when the weekend rolls around, brunch is king. "Brunch culture" has come up as a new American phenomenon, growing in leaps and bounds since it was first introduced in the 1930s with the trend exploding in the 2010s. Brunch remains hugely popular today, particularly among the young adult crowd—and their parents. According to a March 2025 report from CGA by NIQ, 39% of adults aged 21 to 24 say they go out to bars and restaurants for brunch, and 47% of parents report the same.
Though brunch is usually consumed outside of the home, you can enjoy a fantastic breakfast or brunch in the comfort of your own kitchen. To that end, Stacker compiled a list of breakfast and brunch recipes from Allrecipes. Keep reading to reconnect with old breakfast staples and discover new inventive dishes for your next lazy morning
