    Christmas Breakfast

    Nigella's Corn Pudding - From "How to Eat" - posted by Cailin

    5 eggs
    18 ounces (about 2 1/4 cups) canned sweet corn, drained
    14 ounces (about 1 3/4 cups) canned creamed corn
    1 1/3 cups whole milk
    1 1/3 cups heavy cream
    Generous 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and butter an ovenproof dish – and I use my old, scuffed Pyrex one, which measures 12 x 10 inches.
    Whisk the eggs in a large bowl, and then add, beating unenergetically, all the other ingredients. Pour into the buttered dish and cook for about an hour, by which time it should have set within and puffed up slightly on top. Serves 8.

    Chocolate croissants - posted by Cailin

    Get some plain croissants and put some pieces of your fave chocolate (I like to use truffle mud nestle) in the middle wrap in foil and put in 180 oven for 15-20 mins...

    Nellbe's "Queer Eye" bacon and Eggs - posted by Nellbe
    Last year I made bacon and egg things that I saw on Queer Eye... place bacon into muffin pans, crack an egg and cook in the oven, serve with baby spinach and cherry tomatoes very nice and easy.

    Super good french toast - posted by sezjm

    You buy unsliced white loaves and cut them into 2inch slices. Cut each slice in half (to make rectangles) and make a pocket from the 'soft' side. Spread dijon mustard, and put good ham and gruyere cheese in the pockets. Soak in your usual (but savoury) french toast mixture and cook as per usual. Pop in the oven for 5 mins, just to help the cheese melt (also good if you're making lots to keep them warm).

    Waffle Recipe - posted by Cailin

    1 Cup SR Flour
    2TBS Sugar
    1 TBS Oil
    1 Egg
    3/4 Milk
    1 Tsp Vanilla

    Mix together... Now I think this makes about 4 waffles... So you may want to double even triple it depending on how hungry you are... Now these aren't super fluffy waffles, but they are very good none the less

    I'm soooo sad my waffle maker burnt out We normally have waffles xmas morning too...

    *cry*

    Oh and its a superb pancake recipe...
