Sesame Bagel Breakfast Casserole
The key to a long, leisurely brunch is not having to work too hard! This breakfast-sandwich-inspired casserole with sesame bagel pieces is best assembled the night before, allowing the bread to soak up the egg custard. Simply pop in the oven the next morning and sip on mimosas while it bakes.
Desserts
Classic Devils Food Cake
Absolutely! This devil’s food cake recipe can make 24 cupcakes. Preheat the oven to 350° and line your muffin tins with cupcake liners. Make the batter as directed, then fill the cupcake liners 3/4 full with the batter. Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the middle cupcakes comes out clean or with only a few moist crumbs, 15 to 20 minutes.
Desserts
Vanilla Bean Cheesecake
No, you don’t have to make a water bath, but it is highly recommended you do so. A cheesecake water bath will create a steamy environment in the oven, keeping the cheesecake moist as it bakes for over an hour. A dry oven is a common culprit when it comes to cracked cheesecake—a dreaded occurrence!

Buffalo Sloppy Joes
Lean ground turkey makes this a lighter sloppy joe than the standard ground beef version. A hefty splash of hot sauce and optional blue cheese provide an authentic Buffalo-style flavor. —Maria Regakis, Saugus, Massachusetts

Seafood and Seaweed Chowder
A combination of dry hard cider and dried seaweed brings a sweet, mild salinity to the stock, making it ideal for precooking the mussels and clams before using it as the base of the chowder.
Soups & Salads
Corn Chowder
This simple corn chowder recipe gets its flavorful creaminess from pureed corn.
Soups & Salads
Manhattan Clam Chowder
This recipe for Manhattan Clam Chowder — known for being tomato-forward with a broth base — has layers of flavor, from the clam broth spiked with white wine to the tender vegetables that are cooked in bacon fat. Half of the clams are roughly chopped, while the other half are left whole in their shells for contrast. (Make sure to rinse the clams thoroughly before using them to remove any lingering sand.) As the chowder comes together towards the end, gently mashing some of the baby Yukon gold potatoes with a wooden spoon helps thicken the broth. Serve with crusty bread or oyster crackers.
Soups & Salads
Shrimp and Corn Chowder
Chef, culinary historian, and author Maricel Presilla of Zafra in New Jersey shares this recipe for a coastal Ecuadoran shrimp soup when we asked her for an example of classic Ecuadoran food. Key to this recipe is the grated plantain, which gives the soup a wonderfully light and creamy body (be sure to use an unripe plantain here). The recipe for the Tangy Corn Salsa served with the chowder can be found here.

Breakfast Burgers
Skip the long restaurant lines and serve up a breakfast burger for brunch. In this recipe, a turkey patty is stacked with bacon, egg and avocado on an English muffin for a perfect breakfast-y bite—and no one has to wake up too early.

Smoked Trout Chowder
Smoked fish—already cooked and intensely flavorful—is an ideal addition to dishes when time is of the essence. We've used trout here, but another flaky fish, such as haddock or whitefish, would work just as well.
