What is a Traditional Easter Dinner Menu?

Easter is more than just chocolate eggs and spring flowers; it’s a time to gather with families and share a warm and hearty meal. Easter is such a special time when gathering around a table to enjoy a delicious meal as a family is a precious tradition.  

The finest Easter recipes showcase delicious flavors of spring. And whether you’re organizing the ideal Easter brunch or dinner menu, you’ll find something for everyone on this list, including deviled eggs, a spring frittata, grilled lamb chops, honey-baked ham, and additional options.

We’ve compiled a list of recipes that are both easy and amazing, ensuring your Easter dinner is one to remember. 

Let us make this Easter feast the most delightful yet and discuss it in our Food & Drink section..

Main Menu for a Traditional Easter Dinner

We have listed the perfect Easter Dinner Menu for you, including everything you need. Protein, vegetables, fruit, bread, and an incredible dessert that is bound to impress, and simplify your celebration of the season. 

Paska

This classic Eastern European bread comes every year around Easter. The level of sweetness varies depending on the country’s recipe you use; it may include raisins (or not) or be drizzled with a sweet royal icing. Some are even baked in coffee cans, resulting in straight sides with ridges. Whatever version you make, the base is a rich, somewhat sweet dough that is perfect for spring.

Parmesan Braised Leeks

These braised leeks are the perfect complement for Easter dinner. The leeks are incredibly tender yet retain some texture from the broiler, and the parmesan adds a delightful salty finish.

Entrée: Baked Easter Ham

This ham recipe is simple, but it will impress at the table thanks to the delectable bourbon and brown sugar glaze that caramelises in the oven as the ham roasts.

Cheesy Potatoes 

Cheesy potatoes are perfect for any party. Comparing fresh versus frozen potatoes and developing the ideal from-scratch sauce that doesn’t rely on canned soup as a base. In the end, fresh potatoes won the challenge due to their creamy soft texture and ability to soak up the silky smooth, rich homemade sauce. Of course, Cheddar and cornflakes add toothsome crunch.

Hot Cross Buns

These fresh, sweet buns are a traditional Easter treat during this time of year. Plumped currants and a lemon-spiked glaze boost these for the holidays.

Italian Easter Cookies

These lemony Italian cookies are classic Southern delicacies, but they can also be found at Italian-American bakeries around Easter. While they are known by various names in Italy, they are most commonly referred to as “lemon drops.” They’re light, not overly sweet, and have a soft, buttery crumb. They’re the ideal festive match to any table, dipped in a thin lemony glaze and adorned with holiday-themed sprinkles.

Charred Carrots with Herbs 

The Charred Carrots with Herbs are crispy on the outside, delicate on the inside, and topped with a delicious herb mixture. 

Peas and Pancetta with Lemon

This peas and pancetta scenario couldn’t be more straightforward or more delectable as a side dish. You can prepare it a few hours in advance and then simply let it sit in the skillet, reheating it for a minute or two before serving.

Cheesy Creamed Kale

If you’ve had creamed spinach before, you’ll enjoy this Cheesy Creamed Kale just as much. It’s spicy and extra cheesy, easy to prepare and eat, and works great as a side dish for almost everything.

Creamy Spring Peas with Pancetta

Sweet peas and smoky pancetta form a timeless pairing; Food Network Magazine concluded this variation with a lemon-flavored cream sauce.

Herb Roasted Baby Potatoes

You can’t go wrong with these potatoes for Easter dinner. They’re drenched in fresh herbs, which provide a burst of freshness and flavour! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, just how you want them.

Pizza Rustica

Pizza rustica is typically served on Easter, and with good reason: it is a showstopper and perfect for special occasions. Although it requires some effort to prepare, you may make it the day before and bring it to room temperature before serving on your holiday table.

Candied Citrus Cake 

This candied citrus cake is truly a showstopper, featuring a basic butter cake base with a magnificent candied citrus topping.

If you’re looking for even more Eastern dining ideas or planning a meal out, you can explore the latest restaurant menus and prices at HotMenus.co.uk.

Conclusion 

In conclusion, Eastern is a beautiful reminder for beginners, and there’s no better way to enjoy and share a meal with family and loved ones. Whether you want to keep the meal traditional or mix it with new ideas, Easter dinner is really about comfort, great food, and spending time with the people you care about. 

From sweet glazed ham to fresh spring veggies and tasty desserts, every dish adds warmth to the celebration.
