Ingredients

  • 16 ounces canned biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
  • 8 to 12 slices bacon
  • 6 eggs
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 to 8 slices cheese such as Cheddar, White Cheddar, Muenster, Havarti, or Gouda

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉ (follow the time and temperature on your biscuit dough).
  • Lay out the biscuit dough on a large sheet pan and lay out the bacon on another.
  • Bake both together for about 16 minutes. Check on both and take out as they are done. The biscuits take about 16 to 20 minutes (check the package, this can vary by brand!) while the bacon takes about 25 to 32 minutes. See notes below. Transfer bacon to a plate to drain.
  • When the biscuits and bacon are done, whisk the eggs with a bit of salt and pepper in a bowl with a fork. Cook the scrambled eggs in a buttered skillet (or use a bit of the bacon grease) over medium low heat, stirring and moving often with a spatula or wooden spoon. Turn off the heat when the eggs are just barely done.
  • Slice open the biscuits and assemble evenly with the scrambled eggs, a slice of cheese and a slice or two of bacon cut in half.
  • Pop the assembled sandwiches back in the warm oven on the baking sheet for a few minutes to melt the cheese!

Notes

  • Biscuits & Bacon - For me, the biscuits took 20 minutes and the thick-cut bacon took 33 minutes at 350°.  This can vary by brand of biscuits, how thick the bacon is, the oven, etc.  You can also turn the temperature up a bit to 375° to 400° after taking the biscuits out if you want to speed up the bacon.  Just check on things often and don't burn the bacon!
  • Drain the Bacon - I like to grab all the bacon with tongs and let it drip back onto the sheet pan before moving to a plate.
  • Biscuits could be swapped with any type of bread such as bagels, english muffins or croissants.
  • Add Spinach - a few leaves of fresh spinach add nutrition and color.  
  • Meal Prep - You can make these sandwiches ahead of time, refrigerate and rewarm in the microwave or oven.  They can be wrapped and frozen for 2 months.  Thaw overnight in the fridge before rewarming.
