Spring is in the air, flowers are blooming, and Easter is just around the corner—which means it’s time to pull out those pastel napkins, break out the bunny-shaped cookie cutters, and whip up something delicious for your Easter brunch, dinner, or sweet treat table.
Whether you’re hosting a full house or keeping things simple with family, we’ve rounded up a few of our all-time favorite Easter recipes to help make your celebration feel extra special (and extra tasty).
Deviled Eggs with a Twist
No Easter gathering is complete without deviled eggs. But let’s elevate them a bit, shall we?
Try this:
-
Classic filling with a spoonful of Dijon mustard and a sprinkle of smoked paprika
-
Or go bold with bacon crumbles, chopped chives, and a dash of hot sauce
-
Bonus: Use natural food coloring (think beet or turmeric water) to dye the egg whites pastel for a festive flair
Brown Sugar Glazed Carrots
These roasted carrots are sweet, buttery, and just a little bit fancy—but still easy enough to toss together while the ham is baking.
Ingredients:
-
Carrots, olive oil, brown sugar, a splash of orange juice, and thyme
-
Roast until tender and caramelized
They add color and a hint of sweetness to your plate (and are Brody-approved, which says a lot).
Honey Baked Ham (the easy way)
If you’re going the traditional route, you can’t go wrong with a honey glazed ham.
Quick tip:
Mix honey, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, and a bit of pineapple juice, then brush over a pre-cooked spiral ham and bake. Your house will smell amazing, and leftovers make great sandwiches the next day.
Mini Carrot Cake Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting
Big carrot cakes are beautiful, but we love serving these in mini cupcake form—they’re easier to grab, perfect for kids, and just the right amount of indulgence.
Optional: Top with mini fondant carrots or a sprinkle of chopped walnuts for a cute finish.
Spring Berry Trifle
Layers of angel food cake, whipped cream, and fresh strawberries or mixed berries make this light, dreamy dessert a crowd favorite.
Assembly tip: Use a clear glass dish or mason jars to show off the layers—it looks gorgeous on any Easter table.
Whether you’re all about the classic Easter ham or just here for the desserts (no judgment!), we hope these recipes bring joy to your kitchen this season. And hey—if you're thinking about starting fresh this spring with a new home, fresh design ideas, or staging tips, you know where to find us.
Wishing you a beautiful Easter filled with good food, laughter, and all the little moments that matter most.
