The Best Gluten-Free Easter Brunch Recipes

There's just something about spring that makes it seem like the time of year to celebrate special occasions with brunch. Of course, the spring brunch season typically starts off with Easter. It definitely continues to Mother's Day. And let's not forget baby showers and bridal showers. Or just a Saturday or Sunday, when you want to get together with your best friends.

And building the best brunch menu means tables and plates overflowing with traditional breakfast dishes, like stacks of waffles, mini quiches and yogurt with granola. Of course, the savory dishes come in too, like eggs and potatoes, breakfast casseroles and scrambles. But brunch isn't brunch without the lunch component, like salads. And, especially at Easter, the meal isn't complete without ham.

But just because you follow a gluten-free diet doesn't mean you can't enjoy all the traditional brunch favorites. While frittatas and meats and cheeses are naturally gluten free, these days there are plenty of easy recipes to make even more brunch staples free of gluten. Here now are some of very best gluten-free Easter brunch recipes like Strawberry Shortcake Pancakes, Savory Cheesy Waffles, Mini Cinnamon Roll Bites, Light-as-Air Crepes and Fruit-Filled Muffins.
