Cold Brunch & Breakfast Appetizers

Let’s take a look at my favorite cold breakfast appetizers you can make for a breakfast party.

These cold brunch appetizers below are perfect for a buffet-style breakfast for a crowd at work, home, school, a breakfast party. a bridal shower, etc – or whenever you need to plan what bite-size cold brunch food to make.

Brunch Party Fruit Dip

Such a simple cold breakfast appetizer idea and the dip only has 4 ingredients:

• Softened Cream Cheese
• Canned Crushed Pineapple
• 1 Cup Cool Whip
• 1 Package Vanilla Instant Pudding

Then, just serve this breakfast dip with any types of fruit for dipping you want.

Yes! You can use frozen fruit! In fact, frozen fruit can be easier to work with than fresh fruit (and it travels well too) – blueberries are my favorite!

Strawberry Shortcake Fingers

I wanted all the breakfast appetizer recipes to be totally NO COOK, but this one is totally worth the share!

The only thing you’re ‘cooking’ is a can of refrigerator biscuits – and you can bake them ahead of time.

Then, when you’re ready to put these finger food ka-bobs together, just cut up your cooked biscuits and layer the ka-bobs – and serve them COLD.
