Planning a plant-based Easter? Whether you're hosting a big family brunch or enjoying a quiet holiday morning at home, these vegan Easter recipes have you covered. I've rounded up 50 of our favorite dishes, from savory quiches and frittatas to fluffy pancakes, fresh spring sides, and plenty of sweet treats, and every one of them is 100% vegan.
Easter arrives just as spring produce hits its stride, so many of these recipes celebrate tender asparagus, sweet peas, new potatoes, carrots, strawberries, and lemons. For a balanced brunch menu, pick one or two savory dishes like the Vegan Potato and Spinach Frittata or the Spring Vegetable Tart, add something sweet such as Vegan French Toast, round it out with a fresh salad and a roasted vegetable side, then finish with a slice of Vegan Carrot Cake. It wouldn't be Easter without it!
Hosting is much easier when you plan ahead. Quiches, tarts, and grain salads like the Spring Farro Asparagus Salad can be made the day before, and muffins, scones, and quick breads can be baked ahead and frozen. Missing deviled eggs? Deviled Chickpea Bites and Deviled Tomatoes are fun plant-based twists on the classic, and they disappear fast from any appetizer table.
A few tools make Easter cooking and baking even more fun. A 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom turns out picture-perfect quiches and tarts, a set of Easter cookie cutters lets you cut sugar cookies into bunnies, chicks, and eggs, and silicone Easter egg candy molds turn homemade Vegan Peanut Butter Cups into peanut butter eggs for the Easter baskets.
P.S. If you want to make things even easier this Easter, go snag a copy of my new Vegan Brunch Book. It's the perfect way to plan a delicious and simple Easter brunch!

Here are 50 of our favorite vegan Easter recipes, starting with savory brunch dishes and sweet brunch favorites, followed by spring sides, salads, and starters, and finishing with Easter desserts and treats. Happy Easter!

Kitniyot, (legumes) is a Hebrew word meaning legumes. During the Passover holiday, the word kitniyot takes on a broader meaning to include the category of foods that may not be eaten during Passover by Jews following traditional Ashkenazi laws and customs. Long-standing tradition in other communities and recent rulings have given support in certain cases for variation from this practice.
