Ingredients you’ll need for this recipe

Step by Step Guide
1. Cook or reheat the bacon and sausage, and warm the mini pancakes according to the package directions.
2. Place the bagels along the top of the platter, overlapping them slightly.

3. Do the same with the croissants at the bottom of the platter.

4. Position the bowls of jelly and cream cheese in the center—one near the top right and the other near the bottom left.

5. Arrange 3 sausage patties above the croissants on the left side, close to the jelly bowl, and place the remaining 3 sausage patties below the bagels on the right side, near the cream cheese bowl.

6. Place the strawberries to the left of the bagels, adjacent to the cream cheese bowl.

7. Set the syrup jar below the strawberries and above the sausage patties.

8. Line up the mini pancakes along the far left side, next to the strawberries and syrup.

9. Shift one strawberry slightly, then stand the bacon slices upright between the strawberries, bowls, and syrup jar.

10. Put the muffins above the croissants, all the way to the right edge of the platter.

11. Finally, fill any empty spaces with blueberries to complete the board.

Serve and Enjoy!

Important Recipe Notes
- Prep ahead to save time. Cook the bacon and sausage the night before, then simply reheat before assembling the board.
- Use mini versions of your breakfast favorites to make everything bite-sized and easy to grab.
- Warm items just before serving. Pancakes, sausage, and bacon are best served warm, so plan to reheat right before setting up.
- Balance sweet and savory. The mix of meats, breads, fruit, and spreads makes this board feel satisfying without being too heavy.
- Use small bowls and jars. This keeps sticky items like jelly, syrup, and cream cheese neat and easy to serve.
- Fill in the gaps with fruit. Blueberries are perfect for filling empty spaces and adding a fresh, colorful touch.
- Platter tip: Charger plates from Dollar Tree make a great, affordable base and come in fun colors to match any theme.
- Storage: Leftovers can be stored in separate airtight containers in the fridge for 1–2 days, but it’s best enjoyed fresh.
- Gifting idea: Assemble a mini version of the board in a to-go container or divided tray for a sweet breakfast surprise for a friend or neighbor.
