How to cook a decadent Easter morning brunch
"Southern Grit" cookbook author and "Top Chef Season 16" winner Kelsey Barnard Clark shares the best recipes for an Easter morning brunch on "Fox and Friends Weekend" on Saturday.
The author of "Southern Grit: 100+ Down-Home Recipes for the Modern Cook" and the "Top Chef" winner for season 16, Kelsey Barnard Clark, appeared on "Fox & Friends Weekend" on Saturday morning to share an incredible recipe for a truly decadent Easter morning brunch.
Clark also shared yogurt with granola, honey and fruit — as well as deviled eggs and an astoundingly tall and thick chicken biscuit dish.
It features a French toast made with peanut butter, banana and bacon (for adults and kids alike) — which just might be worth a try during this April's National Brunch Month, not to mention during Easter weekend.
"This is a peanut butter, banana and bacon French toast — it's a classic French toast, and it doesn't need syrup," noted Clark.

"It's not too sweet," she added.
(It is cooked in bacon fat, by the way!)
Clark also shared a yogurt dish with granola, honey and fruit — as well as deviled eggs and an astoundingly tall, thick chicken biscuit dish.
Strawberries like these or other beautiful fresh fruits offer a healthy complement to any Easter morning brunch dish, or brunch at any time of the month of April (which happens to be National Brunch Month).
Clark describes herself as a "spicy Southern chef and mother" who hails from Dothan, Alabama.
As her book's bio makes clear, she attended college for two years (which was "parent-mandated," she wrote), then left the Deep South to learn from world-class chefs at the Culinary Institute of America in New York.
"She fine-tuned her skills in Manhattan's top restaurants, Café Boulud and Dovetail, before returning to her roots in Alabama to launch her catering business and restaurant, now known as KBC," her book notes.
