Easter Recipes

Growing up, Easter Sunday was one of my favorite holidays. Hunting for Easter eggs, eating candy, & a delicious feast with a big baked ham. Easter Dinner is one of my favorite meals, and just like Thanksgiving Dinner, it’s all about the side dishes.

Here are some of my favorite Easter Side Dishes:

  • Butter Roasted Carrots
  • Sweet Skillet Cornbread
  • Oven Roasted Asparagus
  • Instant Pot Creamed Corn
  • Garlic Mashed Potatoes
  • Southern Style Green Beans
  • Instant Pot Glazed Carrots
  • Lemony Roasted Asparagus
  • Southern Sour Cream Biscuits
  • Garlic & Butter Smashed Potatoes

Planning on Dyeing Hard-Boiled Eggs?

I love to hard-boil eggs in my Instant Pot using the 5-5-5 method. The eggs are always perfect and are so easy to peel. You can learn more about hard-boiling eggs using the 5-5-5 method here in my post about it.

If you have leftover hard-boiled eggs from all the dyeing fun, you can make them into Easy Deviled Eggs or Easy Egg Salad. (Just make sure the eggs weren’t left out in the sun for hours and hours before you eat them.)

Looking for Easter Brunch Ideas?

For Easter Brunch, I love serving:

  • Biscuits & Sausage Gravy
  • Hashbrown Breakfast Casserole
  • Buttermilk Muffins
  • Carrot Cake Muffins

Muffins and breakfast casseroles are easy to make the day before to heat up quickly in the morning before heading out to church or to an Easter Egg Hunt.

Looking for Easter Dessert Ideas?

I recommend making Copycat Reese’s Peanut Butter Easter Eggs, Easter Egg Rice Krispie Treats, Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal Treats, Angel Food Cake Strawberry Shortcake, Carrot Cake, or an Easter Dirt Cake.

Looking for Leftover Ham Recipes?

I love to use leftover ham to make Southern Collard Greens, Louisiana Red Beans & Rice, Ham & Cheese Scones, and Slow Cooker White Beans & Ham. Here’s a post with tons of ways to use up leftover ham!
