Ellena’s Notes

This is a timeless dish. I first enjoyed it when I was 18 and it was served at my bridal shower brunch. I have served it for Easter brunch every year since as well as a special treat for overnight guests.

Enjoy with a glass of our Riesling, Sweet Riesling, or Maywine. Add a fresh strawberry in the glass for a special treat!
