Egg Bites with Biscuits

Long before “egg bites” were sold at the neighborhood coffee shop, we were making egg and biscuit muffins. These are so handy for a quick breakfast or a protein packed snack.

While I do have an exact recipe below, egg bites are really more of a process. This is great because you can use use what you have.

Pro Tip: For years I’ve made these in a regular metal muffin pan and they work great but you have to oil the pan. I much prefer making them in a silicone muffin pan.

Notes on Ingredients

• Biscuits: I use a half batch of my no-fail biscuit recipe for each batch of egg and biscuit muffins.
• Eggs: This is a great recipe to use up some of the frozen eggs you stashed in the spring.
• Meat: You can use bacon, sausage, ham or whatever meat you like with your eggs. Just make sure it’s cooked first.
• Cheese: We like cheddar in our egg bites but you can use whatever cheese you happen to have on hand.
• Veggies: You can add chopped onions, tomatoes, spinach, or even a bit of cooked diced potatoes

How to Make Egg Bites

1. Cook meat – if it needs it – and let it cool a bit
2. Make biscuit dough if not using canned biscuits
3. Crack eggs and put them in a large bowl and beat them
4. Add cooked meat to eggs
5. Add cheese to eggs
6. Spray muffin tins
7. Put a small amount of biscuit dough in each muffin cup and press it down and up the sides just a bit
8. Put the egg mixture on top of each biscuit
9. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes – just until the top is lightly browned and the eggs are cooked
