Popular Substitutions and Variations
- These sandwiches would be equally delicious if you substitute diced ham or cooked bacon crumbles for the ground sausage.
How to Make Breakfast Biscuit Sandwiches for a Crowd
Step #1. Generously coat a muffin tin with cooking spray. Crack an egg into each well of the pan. Lightly salt and pepper them.
Step #3. Bake the eggs at 350°F for 10-15 minutes until the eggs are cooked to your liking. (The shorter time for runnier yolks and longer for firmer yolks.) Remove them from the oven and let them sit for a few minutes to cool. Run a butter knife around the edge of each to help release them from the pan.
Step #2. Top each egg with sausage crumbles evenly, using all the sausage.
Step #4. To assemble the sandwiches, split each biscuit in half, place a sausage egg filling on one half, top with cheese, if desired, and then the other biscuit half. Serve hot.
Recipe FAQs
These are uber simple — all you need are your favorite biscuits, some cooked and crumbled sausage, 12 eggs, salt and pepper, and if you’d like, some cheese! They’re pretty bare bones and are just begging to be dressed up with a few veggies, hashbrowns on the side, or a little hot sauce.
Store the leftover biscuits separate from the egg-sausage bakes in air-tight containers. The biscuits will last refrigerated for up to a week, and the egg bites will last for 2 to 3 days. You can reheat them in the oven on a cookie sheet for 10 minutes or until they’re warmed through at 350 degrees F., or simply zap them in the microwave.
These are packed with protein, so they’ll certainly fuel you for a busy and full day! The biscuits are pretty buttery… But who doesn’t need a little butter in their life from time to time?
These can be remixed in so many ways! Use pieces of deli ham or turkey in place of the sausage if you prefer, or add some sauteed veggies (onion and bell pepper or jalapeno would be good) to the eggs before you bake them. You can also add sliced tomato and avocado to the sandwiches before serving to bring a little more color and texture!
Expert Tips
- If you have family members who aren’t fried egg fans, whisk the eggs in a small bowl and then divide them evenly between the wells of the muffin tin.
- You can make a vegetarian friendly option by eliminating the meat, and sauteing veggies like onion, peppers, and mushrooms in a skillet, then topping the eggs with equal amounts of the veggie mixture.
- You can vary the cheese. Swiss, Monterey Jack, or even Pepper Jack would be delicious.
- You can top the egg with a little hot sauce or salsa for a little kick.
