13 Undeniable Brunch Recipes You Must Try [+ Bonus Drink Recipes!]

by Ann Ferguson

The idea of brunch has been around longer than you think — it’s been around since the 19th century! It started as a light afternoon meal after morning church services and wasn’t introduced to the U.S. until the 1930s! Now, brunch is more about lingering over a good meal for a quick energy boost!

You might think brunch is all about French toast, quiche, and treats in miniature, but there’s so much more. And since this month is National Brunch Month, we’ve compiled a list of recipes you can’t believe you’ve never had before!

2. Sausage-Stuffed Honey Buns

You might not think sausage and honey buns should go together, but you’d be surprised! This recipe combines caramelized sausage with honey and brown sugar for a hearty meal everyone will rave about!
