Mother’s Day Brunch Smoothies for Mom

Almond Bliss Smoothie is a great starter for the festivities of the day! This smoothie is very filling and may be well-served in shot glasses to your guests as they arrive, just to whet their appetite.

This Blueberry Smoothie is packed with antioxidants and tastes delicious especially with blueberry honey! Since there is much on the menu, a short shot of smoothie is a good idea, to leave room for brunch.

Thinking Boozy Brunch? Well so are we!

Nothing wrong with getting mom a little tipsy on her day. We can rename the event, mom’s boozy brunch! You could approach the drinks in small elegant shot glasses to guests as they arrive as a signature drink.

This Blossoms+Bourbon Cocktail was Inspired by our Blossoms+Bourbon line. The line is fresh, clean, and bright with citrus and geranium bourbon. We thought it would be a great idea to come up with a drink in its honor and created the Blossoms+Bourbon Cocktail.

Try this Fruity Bee Collins, perfectly timed for spring. Fruit filled drinks are perfect in warm weather. They are refreshing and make a beautiful presentation.

This Moscow Mule is our latest creation and will hit the spot for Mother’s Day Brunch.

Mother’s Day Brunch Overnight Oats

We’ve explored lots of warm oats recipes and cool refrigerated Overnight Oats recipes over the years. These are my top picks for mom.

Chocolate Honey Overnight Oats can be prepared ahead of time, to have more time for mom!

With fresh-picked strawberries in season, this may just be the perfect venue for our Strawberries and Cream Overnight Oats. You could make these up overnight and serve them in small 2oz glass bowls with small spoons as an appetizer.

Mother’s Day Brunch Pastries for Mom

Keep the theme going for mother’s day brunch in high strawberry season. These Strawberry Scones are a delicious treat any time of year, but especially on Mother’s Day!

Is mom grain-free? Or is she watching her weight? Or maybe the whole family is partaking in the Paleo Diet? Whatever the case, these Paleo Pumpkin Muffins will please your guests.

If you prefer to enjoy other muffin recipes, we have quite a collection. Easy and fast but very impressive for mother’s day brunch served warm Banana Yogurt Muffins. Or, another healthier option, if mom is a healthy eater try these Carrot-Ginger Bran Muffins. These Oat Bran Muffins were a deep symbol of love for me, try them on mom.

This ‘Un-bread’ recipe is a nut and seed bread made without any leavening agents, and one of my new favorites. Try it!

Honey Banana Bread is easy to make the night before, and everyone loves it. You can make this recipe in muffin form as well, if you are having lots of guests for Mother’s Day Brunch this may be a great idea.

My Aunt Jane’s Apple Cake is popular at any time of the year. Not too sweet. Perfect every time and it may be my favorite cheat! It will literally make mom’s brains fall out, it’s that good.

You can make her this Southern Cornbread she’ll ever eat in her whole life. Complete with honey butter.

Salads for Mom

We have a few tried and true salads in our arsenal. Make your favorite one and serve it with this amazing honey lemon vinaigrette. You can even quickly marinate fish or chicken with this same recipe!

This Kale Salad is the best and most surprising salad we’ve made. Try these Honey Pickled Beets on this Salad. Another recipe that you can make the night before Mother’s Day so that you are well-organized for the day ahead.

Spinach and fruit salad is lovely for this time of year. Especially if you continue on with the fresh-picked strawberry theme. Here’s another idea: Why not buy some strawberry plants to send guests home with a long-lasting reminder of a perfect mother’s day brunch!

This amazing Papaya Salad is authentic and delicious. You can prep it the day before as well. This salad takes a lot of time, but honestly, it’s worth it. If you fire up the grill and grill a few shrimp for this preparation, it could double as a main course.

Our friend Karlen shared this Asian Chicken and Noodle Salad Recipe and it’s been a hit over and over again in our family.

Soup for Mother’s Day Brunch

These aren’t time-consuming recipes that take days of preparation. You will be surprised how easy this is. This Carrot Ginger Soup is quick to make and so light!

No matter what you decide to make, this Thai Shrimp Stew that our friend Joyce Wallace shared may really wow mom and the entire family!

What I love the most about brunch is the idea that anything goes. You can serve sweets, cocktails, egg dishes or steak! We always encourage you to play with your food.

In light of the time of the year, I would guess that weaving strawberries through the meal is a great idea since they are in season. And that’s why I would make sure everyone gets at least one of these chocolate-dipped strawberries before they leave!

Another great way to finish this meal is with a nice healthy Cherry Cobbler Recipe. You can use any combination of fruit in this recipe, so be creative, especially if it’s in support of a theme for the day!
