Treat mum

Mothers deserve to feel special every day, but on that one day a year dedicated just to them, it’s nice to put in a little extra effort.

A homemade breakfast is a lovely gesture, and a small way to say thanks. Getting the siblings together to organise a delicious spread is the perfect way to start mum’s special day. Here is some scrumptious inspiration, best served alongside a beautiful bunch of flowers.

Sweet
Everyone loves a little sugary goodness, and there is just something about maple syrup and chocolate that feels fitting for a special occasion. Try whipping up some pancakes, waffles, French toast or pikelets, topped with maple syrup, chocolate drizzle or a simple lemon and sugar mix.

Savoury
A classic big breaky can’t be beat. Grab a nice loaf of bread from your local bakery to have alongside mums favourite eggs, mushrooms and bacon. Or a more simple option, avocado and tomatoes is always a hit, you can fancy it up with a sprinkle of fresh herbs and freshly squeezed juice to match.

Pastries
Not all of us are kitchen whizzes, so picking up a selection of beautiful fresh pastries from your local bakery is a special treat for mum’s breakfast. Served alongside jam and spreads, a pot of coffee or tea and some fresh fruit is sure to delight mum (and the rest of the family).
