A Breakfast Charcuterie Board is a fun way to serve all your favorite breakfast foods in one beautiful spread. Fill your board with biscuits, bacon, sausage, eggs, fresh fruit, jams, gravy, and other breakfast favorites, then let everyone choose what they want.
I love making breakfast boards when I’m feeding a crowd because there’s something for everyone. You can make the board as simple or elaborate as you like, and it’s especially fun for holidays, brunches, and family gatherings.

Fill in the Gaps: Finish the board with fresh fruit and cheese, filling in any empty spaces until the board looks full.
Questions Readers Ask Most
Can I make a breakfast charcuterie board ahead of time?
You can prep many of the ingredients ahead of time, but add hot foods like eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuits, and gravy shortly before serving.
How much food do I need for a breakfast board?
It depends on the size of your board and how many people you’re feeding. For a larger crowd, simply add more of each item or refill the board as needed.
What else can I add to a breakfast charcuterie board?
Try pancakes, waffles, mini muffins, bagels, croissants, breakfast potatoes, yogurt, or different fruits and cheeses.
