20 Brunch Ideas That’ll Probably Have Your Friends Begging for the Recipes

Brunch is kind of an exciting event.

You don’t have it very often and when you do, it’s normally with friends and/or family. So it kind of ends up feeling like a holiday (kind of).

Also, it gives you an excuse to make magazine-worthy recipes that shouldn’t be eaten in one sitting but probably will be.

And if you feel the same way, then here are some brunch ideas that might make your friends think you’re a cooking genius.

1. Strawberry Cinnamon Rolls

I’ve had these more than once, and they are worth it. I promise.

Make them. Make them right away.

PS – The heavy cream hack has been going around on the internet, and it’s apparently really good!
