Egg, Cheese and Bacon Biscuits

Egg, Cheese and Bacon Biscuits have really become a breakfast favorite for us, especially for a quick and easy weekday meal or something unique and different to impress out of town guests. I typically make these on a Sunday and they last most of the week. What I love about this recipe is the endless options when creating your own favorite biscuit.

The original recipe made 24 mini biscuits, however I decided to tweak the recipe slightly and make them in a muffin tin making 12 larger servings. Much easier in my opinion.

What’s in the Biscuits?

The ingredients are pretty straightforward, the first layer is hash browns followed by cooked bacon and onions. Top with shredded cheese and finally add the egg/milk mixture.

Recommendations for substitutions:
  • Substitute hash browns for sweet potatoes
  • Substitute bacon for cooked sausage, ham, turkey sausage or chicken sausage
  • Substitute shredded cheddar cheese for smoked gouda, cream cheese, cotija cheese or boursin
  • Substitute eggs for egg whites
  • Consider adding chopped red, orange or yellow bell peppers with onions

Ready in 45 seconds

During the week I grab 1-2 cooked muffins and reheat them in the microwave between 45 -60 seconds. You could also reheat in a toaster oven for roughly 5 min at 350ยฐ.

Another option is assembling them the night before (store in the fridge covered with plastic wrap). The next morning make the milk and eggs mixture, finish the preparation and then place in the oven.
