Harissa Roasted Vegetable Traybake

This colourful feast comes together with minimal effort but packs a big punch of satisfying flavour. To round out the meal, serve with pita bread and some Greek yogurt garnished with a drizzle of olive oil and some toasted sesame seeds.

Socca with Beet, Yogurt, Greens, and Egg

This plant-based brunch showstopper is full of bright earthy flavours. If you can’t find beets with their tops on, feel free to swap in another seasonal green such as chard, collards, or kale.

Winter Citrus Salad with Ginger Tahini Dressing

If you find yourself craving a spot of sunshine during the darker winter months, whip up a platter of this bright citrus fruit salad and revel in the jewels of winter. Feel free to play around with the citrus you choose. I find this salad particularly lovely with a mix of sweet and tart citrus fruit as it adds a bit more depth and complexity to the overall dish. To make this salad more of a meal, consider adding a protein boost with crispy chickpeas, sliced chicken, or flaked salmon.

Baked Banana Pumpkin Doughnuts

You’d be hard-pressed to find anyone who would turn down a still-warm doughnut, and even fewer who would turn down one of these. These banana pumpkin doughnuts are baked, and lighter in texture than your typical fried indulgence, but they don’t compromise on taste. Crowned with a simple chocolate glaze and a shower of pumpkin seeds (a nod to what’s in them), you can have these doughnuts made and on the table in about an hour.

Mulled Mocktail

No brunch is complete without a special drink to sip and savour. This spiced mocktail is the perfect libation to warm up with on a cold wintery morning. If you are in the mood to imbibe, a splash of brandy or Cointreau would do nicely here.

Sugar-Free Chocolate Mousse Cups with Ginger Poached Pears

These rich chocolate mousse cups contain no sugar but offer a whole lot of satisfying sweetness from monk fruit, a natural plant-based sweetener. Not only that, but they are egg free by using aquafaba whipped up into fluffy stiffness. The result is a light, airy, and most definitely chocolatey mousse which is paired with the perfect partner—ginger and vanilla poached pears.

Dates with Whipped Ricotta and Spicy Pepitas

Nuts, along with fruit, are a classic accompaniment to cheese—but there are times when you want to avoid them, especially when you’re hosting guests with allergies. Here's a different take on a classic combination that is completely nut free. In this luscious appetizer, soft, juicy dates are stuffed with thyme and chili-flavored whipped ricotta. The final topping of delightfully crunchy and spicy toasted pumpkin seeds provides an exquisite bite that hits all the notes—from sweet to savory.

Holiday Spice Hummus Endive Boats with Pomegranate

These endive boats with a plant-based filling are easy to serve and to make in advance. A silky-smooth hummus, flavored with lemon, sumac, and cinnamon, gets an extra dose of deliciousness and texture with the addition of crunchy radish, juicy pomegranate, and whole chickpeas. Stuffed into fresh endive leaves—you can call it hummus and then some.
