When I think of charcuterie boards, I usually imagine lunch or dinner-related boards. I think cheese, meat, fruit, and all of the classics. But breakfast charcuterie boards are just as delicious, and they’re great if everyone in your family is working on different schedules. My fiance leaves for work at 6 a.m. and I usually don’t even wake up until 9. So, if you make a breakfast charcuterie board the night before, you can each pick and choose what you’d like to eat from it the next morning. Or, they can be perfect for your next brunch party. No matter what your plan is, we’ve compiled some awesome recipes to get you started!

I love a sweet breakfast. This could be any of the classics like waffles, pancakes, french toast, and cinnamon rolls. Pair these with fruit and berries, honey and maple syrup, chocolate spreads or nut butters, and maybe even some candied nuts. This one doubles as a dessert board but is perfect for you if you prefer sweet breakfasts over savory ones.
Healthy Breakfast Board

Charcuterie boards don’t have to go overboard — they can be as healthy as any other breakfast option. Pack your board with protein, like hard-boiled eggs, and add some fresh fruit and berries. A pretty spread can inspire you to eat a healthy breakfast, instead of pouring a bowl of sugary cereal.
