Ingredients

Scale

Primary Protein Ingredients:

  • 8 precooked sausage links, chopped
  • 1 cup scrambled eggs, prepared to your liking

Cheese and Bread Base:

  • 1 can (8 count) Southern Homestyle Buttermilk Biscuits, not flaky
  • 1 1/2 cups (169.5 g) mild cheddar cheese, shredded, divided

Seasoning and Finishing Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick / 57 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375F (190C). Prepare a 12-inch oven-safe skillet with nonstick cooking spray, ensuring complete coverage for smooth food release.
  2. Remove biscuits from packaging and place on clean surface. Gently roll each biscuit to approximately 1/8-inch thickness using a rolling pin, creating uniform circular bases.
  3. Distribute shredded cheese across each flattened biscuit, leaving a small border around edges for proper sealing. Layer scrambled eggs and chopped sausage links evenly on top of cheese.
  4. Carefully fold biscuit edges toward center, pinching and pressing to create secure sealed packets. Ensure no filling escapes by thoroughly crimping edges together.
  5. Arrange sealed bombs seam-side down in prepared skillet, positioning them close but not touching to allow even heat circulation.
  6. Combine melted butter with kosher salt in a small bowl. Brush half the mixture generously over bomb surfaces, covering each completely for golden coloration.
  7. Transfer skillet to preheated oven. Bake 20-23 minutes until bombs transform into puffy, rich golden-brown delicacies with crisp exterior.
  8. Remove from oven and apply remaining butter mixture. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for vibrant presentation. Serve immediately while warm and cheese remains melted.

Notes

  • Swap biscuit dough for gluten-free options to accommodate dietary restrictions, ensuring everyone can enjoy these delightful breakfast treats.
  • Prep ingredients ahead of time to streamline the morning cooking process, making these bombs a quick and convenient breakfast solution for busy households.
  • Store leftover bombs in an airtight container and reheat in the oven or air fryer to maintain their crispy exterior and prevent sogginess.
