Thanksgiving morning is one of my favorite mornings of the whole year. The house is full, the parade is on TV, and the kitchen already smells like something good is coming. But with dinner still hours away, everyone starts wandering into the kitchen looking for something to eat long before the turkey is ready.

That’s why I always plan for breakfast too. And today I rounded up my favorite Thanksgiving breakfast ideas. Some are full of cozy fall flavors like pumpkin, apple, and cinnamon, and some are just good old-fashioned breakfast favorites that everyone loves any time of year.
