Christmas

Christmas in my kitchen starts in November and doesn’t stop until the last cookie tin is empty. This is my full collection of Christmas recipes — from the showstopper mains that anchor the table to the little extras that make the whole season feel special.

If you’re planning a Christmas dinner, start with the Beef Tenderloin with Winter Vegetables or go all-in on the holidays with the Garlic Fennel Roast Rack of Lamb. On the side, Brown Butter Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Worcestershire Green Beans have never once let me down. For dessert, the Christmas Pavlova Wreath with Raspberry Coulis is the one recipe that makes people think I’m fancier than I am.

Christmas morning gets its own section too — the No-Chill French Toast Casserole and Croissant Breakfast Casserole are both built for the chaos of a house full of people who want breakfast immediately. And if you’re hosting a cookie exchange this year, How to Host a Christmas Cookie Exchange has everything you need to pull it off without losing your mind.
