19th Hole Brunch

You'll find this brunch a ‘hole in one’ and one that suits guests to a tee! It's prepared ahead, so all you need to do is pop the egg dish in the oven and warm the coffee cake! Guests nibble on veggies and replay their game during the baking. Using the helpful ‘plan ahead’ will steer you free of sand traps.

"Try softening a stick of butter and blend in 2 tablespoons maple syrup and 1/3 cup chopped pecans…or mix a couple of tablespoons of your favorite fruit jam into the butter."

Plan Ahead

Hole-in-One Service

Purchase paper napkins with a golf-theme design. Wrap sets of knives, forks and spoons together in a napkin, and tie with cord or yarn. Place them at the end of the buffet for the guests to pick up after they get their food.
Serve this brunch buffet style on your deck or in your backyard.

Par for the Party

Give prizes for the longest and shortest drives, lowest and highest scores, closest to the pin and hole in one. Golf towels, gloves and sleeves of balls make great prizes.
For a fun party favor, place colorful tees in small jars or clear plastic bags and tie with ribbons.
