I turned classic breakfast sandwiches into something heartier you could have for dinner, too. We pile toppings like salsa, avocado—even mayo and ketchup—onto my homemade biscuits.
Ingredients
- 4 cups biscuit/baking mix
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup finely chopped fully cooked ham
- 1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper, divided
- 1 cup 2% milk
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- EGGS:
- 8 large Nellie’s Free Range Eggs
- 1/2 cup 2% milk
- 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Optional toppings: salsa, sliced tomato, red onion and avocado
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°. In a large bowl, combine biscuit mix, cheese, ham and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add milk; mix just until moistened.
- Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 8-10 times. Pat or roll dough to 1-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter. Place 2 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Brush with melted butter; sprinkle with remaining pepper. Bake 12-14 minutes or until golden brown.
- Meanwhile, for eggs, in a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, pepper and salt. In a large nonstick skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Pour in egg mixture; cook and stir until eggs are thickened and no liquid egg remains. Stir in cheese; remove from heat.
- Split warm biscuits in half. Layer bottoms with egg mixture and toppings as desired. Replace tops.
