The Best Italian Dishes for Your Spring Brunch Event

The Best Italian Dishes for Your Spring Brunch Event

Brunch doesn’t have to be boring. Brunch should be a delicious celebration of the best spring flavors. You can entertain in style and wow your guests by serving these Italian brunch dishes instead of the tired standard brunch fare at your next brunch event:

Sfogliatelle

Paper-thin layers make these golden pastries wonderfully flaky and crisp over layers of thick and creamy ricotta and sweetened semolina filling.

Pizza Chiena 

This savory, meaty Italian pie is typically served on Easter, but it makes any brunch a real event and offers guests who prefer a hearty breakfast a nice option. 

Potato, Salami, and Cheese Frittata

Frittatas are a standard brunch dish, but this frittata is elevated with salami, potatoes, and goat cheese. 

Eggs in Purgatory

This popular Southern Italian lunch dish of eggs baked in tomato sauce is perfect for brunch.

Raspberry Jam Bomboloni

For a sweet brunch option, these sweet Italian donut holes served with raspberry jam are a light brunch favorite. 

Breakfast Egg Cups with Parsley Gremolata and Mushrooms

These delicious savory herb-topped eggs are a real crowd-pleaser for breakfast or brunch. 

Ratatouille Toasts with Fried Eggs

Traditional fried eggs paired with a classic ratatouille are a popular brunch dish. 

Sweet Plum Focaccia

Focaccia is a delicious option for brunch when paired with ripe caramelized plums to give it sweetness and a depth of flavor. 

Spaghetti Frittata

Spaghetti lovers will flock to this fun frittata that combines traditional baked eggs and familiar spaghetti flavors. 

Ricotta and Roasted Grape Crostini

Roasted green and black grapes served on crostini with balsamic vinegar and sweet ricotta cheese are a wonderful spring dish.

Cranberry-Almond Biscotti

A classic cranberry-almond biscotti is the perfect option for people who prefer a light brunch and don’t want a large meal. They are also a fantastic dessert option after guests have finished their meal and want a light, sweet bite with their coffee. 

Baked Eggs with Spinach, Asparagus, and Prosciutto

These eggs are baked just enough to set, so they break and become a wonderful sauce that boosts the flavor of the other components when eaten. Serve with warm focaccia. 

Fig and Rosemary Focaccia with Pecorino

Dried figs and fresh rosemary make this flavorful focaccia the perfect addition to a cheese board, or a light bread to be served with coffee as a dessert. 

Ricotta-Orange Pound Cake with Prosecco Strawberries

Strawberries sprinkled with Prosecco and a little sugar are a decadent brunch option that captures the flavors of spring.
