31 scrumptious, refreshing elevenses recipes! The list includes refreshing drinks, savory and sweet snacks, perfect for mid morning refreshments break.
What is Elevenses?
Elevenses is a 11am refreshments break, common in UK. It is a short tea, coffee and a snack break which often doubles up as a second breakfast. The snack is usually muffins, biscuits, scones and sandwiches. However, time and food for elevenses varies from country to country.
Elevenses is basically a mid morning snack break between breakfast and lunch. Food for this break is light, just to satiate the hunger pangs until lunch time. One of the themes for January blogging marathon (BM) was ‘How about Elevenses?’.
And my fellow BMers have come put with 31 amazing elevenses recipes. Some of the recipes are traditional English elevenses recipes and some are just perfect to serve during 11am.
Though these recipes are great elevenses recipes, all the recipes are wonderful tea time, after school snacks and great to munch on anytime of the day.
