Grilled Brunch (Grilled Fruit Toasts & Breakfast Potatoes)

Whether you’re looking for a unique brunch to enjoy when you’re camping or you’re at a tailgate super early for the big game and you’ve got your grill, I’ve got you covered for an amazingly delicious grilled brunch of grilled fruit toasts and breakfast potatoes.
When my weekly grocery delivery arrived from Instacart last week it contained peaches and other stone fruits that looked so fresh and beautiful, I wanted to use them immediately. As part of my delivery, I had also ordered some other pantry staples – that’s one of the many things I love about Instacart, I order everything I need from the grocery store, like bread and almond butter and it all gets delivered right to my door!

With the weather slowly warming up, all I want to do is be outside, grilling my ever meal. During the week I’m rushing around and barely have time for even 10 minute breakfasts, but on the weekends, I like to take time and get creative, and grilling brunch is something I have wanted to do for forever, especially with camping season starting.

I absolutely hate when I’m looking for grilling/campfire recipe (especially breakfast ones) and they list ingredients like eggs and meat or things that are just unrealistic to bring into the great outdoors. Do I want to be lugging around a giant cooler full of things? Not so much. And how about a pan and other utensils to cook the eggs and such with– do I want to bring those with me? Again, not so much. I want something that I can prep at home and that won’t require that much involvement when I’m putting it together.

Both these breakfast dishes – the grilled fruit toasts and the breakfast potatoes – are dishes that can be made ahead of time and require minimal hands-on involvement.

For the breakfast potatoes you simply cut up the potatoes and onions and season them and make a foil packet. All you do to cook the breakfast potatoes is to put the packet on the grill and let it cook away. That’s it!

For the grilled fruit toasts you simply cut the fruit and stir it with some cinnamon and sugar. I put the fruit in a big sealable zip lock bag and package the skewers separately, and then to assemble all you do is put the fruit on the skewers and grill the fruit skewers and the bread for a few minutes. Then to assemble the grilled fruit toasts you’ll spread a thin layer of almond butter on the toasts and put the fruit from a skewer on the bread and enjoy.

The only other item you’ll need to bring with you are tongs and few serving plates – super easy, right?

This grilled brunch would also be a fun family summer activity to get outdoors on the weekends when the weather is nice. Here’s to grilled brunch, summertime, and all the wonderful produce from Instacart!
