How to Make Breakfast Biscuit Sandwiches

Instructions :

1. Make the Biscuits:
   • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
   • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
   • Add the cold butter to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work it in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
   • Gradually stir in the buttermilk until the dough comes together. Do not overmix.
   • Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, gently pat it into a rectangle, and fold it over itself 2-3 times for flaky layers.
   • Roll out the dough to about 1/2-inch thick and cut out biscuits using a round cutter. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
   • Brush the tops with buttermilk and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
2. Prepare the Fillings:
   • In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Cook the mixture in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until scrambled and set.
   • Cook bacon or sausage until crispy and drain excess grease on paper towels.
3. Assemble the Sandwiches:
   • Slice the biscuits in half and layer with scrambled eggs, bacon or sausage, and a slice of cheese.
   • Add optional toppings like spinach, avocado, or tomato if desired.
4. Serve and Enjoy:
   • Serve warm and enjoy immediately, or wrap the sandwiches in foil for a grab-and-go breakfast.

Notes :

• Make-Ahead Tips:
  • Cook the biscuits and fillings ahead of time and assemble the sandwiches when ready to serve.
  • Wrap assembled sandwiches in foil and reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes.
• Variations:
  • Use whole-grain or gluten-free biscuits for a healthier option.
  • Swap out bacon or sausage for ham or turkey slices.
