Description
Breakfast Bombs are bite-sized, hand-held delights filled with scrambled eggs, cheese, and beef or sausage, wrapped in a fluffy biscuit or dough. Perfect for a quick breakfast, meal prep, or brunch, they’re customizable and packed with flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 can of refrigerated biscuit dough (or pizza dough)
- 4 large eggs (scrambled)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese)
- 4 slices cooked beef or 1/2 cup cooked sausage (crumbled)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing)
- Optional: 1 tablespoon fresh chives or parsley (for garnish)
- Optional: 1 tablespoon melted butter (for brushing on top before baking)
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: Cook the beef or sausage until crispy and crumbled. Set aside. Scramble the eggs with salt and pepper until cooked but soft. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Preheat the oven: Preheat to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin with butter or line with muffin liners.
- Prepare the dough: Separate the dough into biscuits or cut pizza dough into 3-4 inch circles.
- Assemble the breakfast bombs: Flatten each dough circle, add scrambled eggs, beef/sausage, and cheese. Carefully seal the dough around the filling.
- Form the bombs: Pinch the dough to seal and form a ball. Place in muffin tin. Optionally, brush with melted butter for a golden finish.
- Bake: Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Let cool for a few minutes, garnish with herbs if desired, and enjoy!
Notes
- Feel free to add sautéed vegetables or hashbrowns to the filling for extra flavor and texture.
- For a vegetarian version, skip the meat and add more veggies or tofu.
- If making ahead, refrigerate the assembled bombs and bake them fresh in the morning for optimal texture.
