These Stuffed Biscuits are filled with sausage, egg, and cheese and make a delicious portable breakfast that kids love! It’s simple and yummy comfort food!
I enjoy this served with a Fruit Salad.
There’s just a whole lot of goodness right here. Obviously, this is a simple recipe of sausage, egg, and cheese are baked inside biscuits. I realize you can just slice your biscuit open and make a sandwich with the sausage egg and cheese. However, kids like novelty and sometimes it takes a little creativity to get the little ones to eat. Offering meals in a fun and unique way almost always will get them to eat it.
As well, The Stuffed Biscuits are great for when you’re eating on the run or have to take breakfast or a snack to the kids’ sports team, etc.
By using large-sized canned biscuits, I cut the prep time in half. Of course, if you want you can make biscuits from scratch and use them. Just make sure you don’t get them too thick or you’ll have all bread and not ‘goody’ in the biscuit muffins.
STUFFED BISCUITS
There are just four ingredients to this breakfast
- 8-count Pillsbury Grands Biscuits
- Eggs
- Breakfast sausage
- Cheese
HOW TO MAKE SAUSAGE EGG AND CHEESE STUFFED BISCUITS
- First, cook your sausage. You can either cook patties or crumble them.
- While the sausage is cooking, I like to put the biscuits in a muffin tin. If you’ll get canned biscuits with layers, they’re easier to divide into two parts. After you divide the biscuit, flatten it out into a larger disc with your hand. Then, press on a layer in the bottom of a greased, regular-size muffin tin.
- Next, when the sausage is cooked through, remove it from the pan and drain them on paper towels.
- Pour most of the grease from the pan and turn the stove to low.
- Crack the eggs into a small bowl and whisk. Add salt and pepper if desired.
- Next, pour the eggs into the same pan you cooked the sausage and stir with a spatial until they’re soft-scrambled. They’ll finish cooking in the oven.
- Slice or grate your cheese. I used cheddar, but you can use your favorite or whatever you have on hand.
- Layer the sausage, cheese, and eggs in the muffins tin lined with biscuits.
- Top the filled biscuit cups with the second half of the biscuits that you have flatten out. Pinch the biscuits together where they meet to keep the filling inside.
- Finally, cook the biscuits. Remove from the oven, allow the biscuits to cool a minute or two, then serve.

I didn’t see where you specified the temperature at which the oven should be preheated.
Paula says
Oh thank you! I fixed it

Scarlet says
My husband and son absolutely loved these stuffed biscuits. So filling and delicious!
Gloria says
how many biscuits does this recipe make? (to cut) and then how many breakfast sandwiches? (should be half the number of biscuits).. . thanks!
Paula says
I usually get 10 to 12 biscuits from the biscuit recipe, then 6 from the stuffed biscuits. I like my biscuits fairly large. My biscuit cutter is probably 2 1/2 inches. Hope this helps – I updated that info on the printable recipe too.

Just finished eating some of these for breakfast this morning. next time I'll some onion & peppers & things to spice it up. It was a little boring in the taste department. I can totally see these stuffed with taco meat. Yum. Lots of possibilities.
Thanks for sharing!

hahaha! Love it!! It's true, I remember sitting on a stool watching my MawMaw makes biscuits. I sat and watched my Grandmother make biscuits. And, I sat and watched my Mother make biscuits. We just grow up knowing how!

I made biscuits once for out of town guests and she asked me how I made such great biscuits – I told her southern girls are born knowing how to make biscuits.
