I couldn’t be more thankful to celebrate my third (!!) Mother’s Day this month with three beautiful boys. Motherhood is crazy, exciting, scary, fun and every emotion in between, and moms really are superheroes! Kudos to all the mothers and mother figures out there – you guys are absolutely amazing.
This weekend I rounded up 50+ of the best brunch recipes that are perfect for Mother’s Day. Whether you’re cooking them up for them in person or celebrating remotely, these Recipes for Mother’s Day brunch are the ones she will love.
You’ll find a mix of sweet and savory, and I’ve listed them as vegan, vegetarian, and/or gluten-free for easy scrolling.
Pick a few of your favorites, cook and bake, and enjoy! Sending love from this mama to everyone else out there.
Gluten Free = GF
