These biscuits are amazing. Easy and the perfect portable breakfast!
Breakfast on the GO!
These portable sausage biscuits are a spin-off of my Better than Red Lobster Biscuits that everyone loved! I added less coconut flour and more cheese. I also made them bigger so that they could easily be popped into your toaster. Using a wide mouth toaster to reheat these biscuits makes them taste like they came out of the oven. Make a double batch and store in the freezer for a lazy morning (I have lots of those)!
These would be great for breakfast, at home or on-the-go. Also, use these biscuits as buns for a juicy hamburger. Feel free to use a smaller scoop for a smaller biscuit, just be sure to reduce the cooking time. Oh, and be sure to make a double batch and stash some in the freezer.
A few of my FAVORITE Kitchen Tools
I love my scoops! Really, I use them a few times a day. I have a small one (1.5 tbsp) that I use for everything from small cookies to meatballs. My medium scoop is 3 tbsp and I use it for my Better than Red Lobster Biscuits (makes the perfect size), measuring the filling to make my mini cheesecakes, or making a slightly bigger meatball. My large scoop which is 4 tbsp I use to measure the batter for cupcakes, BIG meatballs, salmon patties, hamburgers, buns and anything else I need to scoop! These are a GREAT investment!
I cooked these in a large cast iron skillet but you could also use a muffin top pan.
Substitutions
How about Pizza Pockets!?! Substitute chopped pepperoni for the bacon and mozzarella cheese for the cheddar! Yum! (This recipe coming soon.)
Also, feel free to also use bacon, ham or even leftover chicken. Even add your favorite dried herbs!
