The Dickey House Bed & Breakfast Recipes

Each morning of your stay at The Dickey House, a Marshfield, Missouri Inn, you will enjoy a delicious, full gourmet breakfast. You meal will begin with coffee, tea, juice, fruit and fresh pastry. The second course is entree. You will never get scrambled eggs and bacon at this Missouri B&B! All entrees are items that you would not normally make at home. For example: Bacon wrapped Asparagus served with a poached egg on a toasted garlic baguette and an Adobo Hollandaise sauce, A ham, mushroom, caramelized onion, cheese and egg stuffed braided pastry or even Dickey House Stuffed Pancakes. This is the inn’s Signature dish: two luscious pancakes are filled with sweetened vanilla cream cheese, then rolled, dusted with powder sugar and topped with whipped cream and our homemade raspberry sauce.

Breakfast is normally served at 9 am either in the dining room, which has separate tables and is on the formal side, or in the enclosed porch that overlooks the entire Dickey House property and gardens. We will even make and pack a special breakfast for guests that wish to be up and on their way early. Other breakfast times may be arranged in advance, however we stop serving breakfast at 10 am.

Below you will find some of our favorite Bed and Breakfast recipes. Be sure to check back often for even more delicious breakfast recipes!
