Think of this as a healthy alternative to a fast-food breakfast muffin. These Breakfast Egg Biscuits are easy to prepare beforehand. Alternatively, make only the biscuits ahead of time, then add the eggs, sausage, and cheese when you are ready to eat. Rather than forming them by hand, using a whoopie pie pan or other shallow pan with 2½”- to 3”-wide wells really helps to generate the small but sturdy shape of a biscuit. Egg rings are also useful to get the fried eggs perfectly round and uniformly thick. A 3” round metal cookie cutter works perfectly.
Ingredients
- 2 sausage patties or 2 slices Canadian bacon (preferably uncured)
- 2 medium eggs
- 2 Basic Biscuits, halved lengthwise
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese (1 ounce each)
How to Make It
- In a medium skillet, cook the sausage patties or Canadian bacon until cooked through. Remove to a plate and set aside. In the same skillet, break 1 egg into an egg ring, breaking the yolk. Cover and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until almost set. Use a knife to separate the egg from the ring and remove the ring. Turn the egg over and cook for 1 minute, or until set. Remove to a plate. Repeat with the remaining egg.
- Place the bottom of 1 biscuit on a plate and top with 1 egg, 1 sausage patty or slice of Canadian bacon, and 1 slice of cheese. Cover with the biscuit top. Repeat to make a second sandwich.
