From a distance, it would seem as if brunch and Easter\u2019s prolific relationship would complicate the holiday\u2019s dessert situation. Of course, this is decidedly false. Dessert\u2019s wonder is not bound to time constraints or specific holidays. Dessert is omnipotent, strong, always sweet, and certainly stealing the show on Easter Sunday. So, yeah, Easter dessert is something to get excited about.<\/p>\n
Inspired by classic Easter basket candy, these macarons are bright in color and big on flavor. Filled with chocolate ganache and caramel, these cookies are like the eggs in your basket\u2014but better.<\/p>\n
Layered with meringue, pistachios, and lemon curd, this cake is complex in flavor and texture.<\/p>\n
Meyer lemon, cheesecake, Biscoff cookies\u2014three of my favorite things, all in one cake. Also, this requires just ten minutes of prep.<\/p>\n
Think banana bread, but lighter, fluffier, and frosted in brown sugar.<\/p>\n
Like how a diagonal cut improves any sandwich, desserts served in ramekins simply taste better. This lemon sponge cake is easy to shop for (seven ingredients), quick to prepare (15 minutes), and obviously delicious (served in a ramekin).<\/p>\n
Much like Martha and Snoop, monkeybread and gingerbread is a partnership we never knew we needed. Of course, combining fragrant ginger with the richness of monkey bread isn\u2019t exactly a tough sell.<\/p>\n
This cake is airy and light, but not without integrity. Ricotta, eggs, and plenty of butter give it richness, grated apple lends heft, and lemon zest prevents it from being bland.<\/p>\n
With no butter, shortening, vanilla, or tedious hand rolling required, these are chocolate truffles in their easiest form. Top with a salty, crunchy snack like pretzels or peanuts.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019ve got almonds, sugar, and olive oil, you\u2019ve got everything you need to make this crowd-pleasing brittle. Fun fact: In Sicily, this almond treat is a holiday staple.<\/p>\n
Re: ramekin desserts being the best desserts. Also, this lemon cream comes together in under 30 minutes, meaning you could even whip it up after your main course.<\/p>\n
A fun riff on the classic cinnamon roll, these cookie butter treats are an ideal brunch dessert.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re not sold on coconut cream, watch this<\/a>, and you will be.<\/p>\n Similar to the cookie butter rolls, this lemony, gingery, rhubarb coffee cake is best served as a post-brunch sweet. Serve with a cup of Irish coffee, because why not?<\/p>\n Inspired by classic Texas sheet cakes, this gluten-free, lemon-forward remix is bright, moist, and big enough to serve an entire family (plus in-laws).<\/p>\n Olive oil cake is the light beer of dessert. This is a compliment, of course, because\u2014just like light beer\u2014you\u2019ll never get sick of spending a whole afternoon with this cake.<\/p>\n Rich, decadent, flavorful, and not-too-sweet, this chocolate-espresso gelato is everything it needs to be. Also, the Uncle Fester shoutout is appreciated.<\/p>\n If you want to mix it up this year, consider making your own chocolate bars\u2014especially since this recipe mixes caramel puffed rice with milk chocolate to create something that is sweet, crunchy, and creamy.<\/p>\n We\u2019ve covered brunch dessert, but we also need a dessert that doubles as brunch\u2014and that\u2019s what these elegant, well balanced, lavender-and-cr\u00e8me-fra\u00eeche-having flapjacks are for. Top with your favorite maple syrup and pair with your preferred morning cocktail.<\/p>\n As the name suggests, whole chunks of orange (with the skin on) give this cake a flavor that is like marmalade, but brighter. It\u2019s worth noting that you will need a food processor to make this recipe.<\/p>\n Peanut and banana are a prolific team but rarely do you seem together on a single loaf\u2014let\u2019s change that. Sweet, salty, crunchy, and always moist, this brown butter banana bread is your morning dessert.<\/p>\n Perfect for grazing, these salty, sweet chocolate caramels are great if you don\u2019t want to make an entire meal out of dessert. Bonus: this recipe makes about 60 caramels.<\/p>\n Maple, olive oil, chocolate, and sea salt combine to give these vegan cookies a balanced, heavy-hitting flavor.<\/p>\n These mini cheesecakes nail every aspect of the Easter dessert criteria: they\u2019re bright in color, rich in flavor, and perfect for hosting. Top with chopped pistachios for an added crunch.<\/p>\n Homemade orange sherbet sells itself.<\/p>\n A community favorite, this no-bake, frozen, oreo treat is a crowd pleaser that\u2014if made once\u2014will likely be made again many, many<\/em> times.<\/p>\n Fact: You can enjoy beignets outside of New Orleans. While it takes quite a bit of work to properly recreate this classic dessert, if you want dessert to be the highlight of your holiday, the effort needed for this recipe will certainly pay off. Plus, how many people do you know that can say they\u2019ve made beignets at home?<\/p>\n Striking a delightful balance between yogurt\u2019s tang, vanilla\u2019s warmth, raspberry\u2019s bite, and almond\u2019s crunch, these cookies are both delicious and vibrant. Think of them as black and white cookies, dressed up for Easter.<\/p>\n 13. Rhubarb Coffee Cake With Cardamom-Ginger Crumble<\/a>
