How To Host a Vegan Brunch

A breakfast spread including pancakes, eggs, berries, and flowers. Text reads: Our guide to hosting a vegan brunchWeekend brunch is one of life’s simple pleasures. Mimosas, french toast, and time spent with the people you love are just some of the reasons we look forward to Sunday mornings. Traditional breakfast fare like bacon, eggs, and sausage aren’t vegan-friendly, but our plant-based friends can still enjoy a divine brunch with just a dash of creativity.

Here are some of our favorite ways to create a delicious, plant-based brunch that appeals to whoever is at your breakfast table:

01: Drinks 

The good news? Most brands of Prosecco and champagne are vegan-friendly, so mimosas are safe to serve. In some cases though, they’re filtered with animal byproducts during a process called “fining”, so be sure to check the label before serving. 

For a non-alcoholic drink option, try out a fun mocktail! We suggest this virgin blackberry mojito as a crisp and refreshing brunch pairing.
