It seems like people either love or hate breakfast. I, unfortunately, fall in the second category. I just don’t feel like eating right when I wake up and if I don’t, the kids wake up, chaos ensues and there is no longer time because they like to eat the second their eyes open.
Plus, I don’t love most breakfast foods, especially sweets. I mean, I wouldn’t ever turn down a doughnut, we’re not talking crazy here, but I don’t love sugary sweet in the morning.
So when I do eat breakfast, if I’m not sucking down a smoothie, I usually reach for something more on the savory side. Like this biscuit of deliciousness. I would eat it everyday if I could but a) I want to see my kids get married someday and b) ain’t nobody got time for that.
They aren’t too complicated, especially if you use frozen biscuits like I did, but the bacon takes a bit of time (that I just don’t have most mornings with my children). If you have the bacon made up already then they are pretty quick and simple.
I know I’m gushing about this bacon, but it just brings this biscuit sandwich to a new level. Plus, the runny yolk. It all combines to elevate the ordinary bacon and egg biscuit to something a little bit fancy.
And just FYI, this bacon isn’t just for breakfast. It converts from breakfast sandwich delight to dinner star on a burger, just saying.
Maple Brown Sugar Bacon and Egg Biscuits
serves 4
4 biscuits (I used these, but if you want homemade try these)
4 eggs
4-8 slices Maple Brown Sugar Bacon*
1. Prepare biscuits. While they are baking, heat a skillet to medium heat. Lightly butter the pan and cook the eggs to your preference. We like ours over easy (and the runny yolks keeps them from getting too dry).
2. Slice the biscuits in half and place an egg and slice of bacon on the bottom half. Top with the other biscuit half and enjoy.
*I only used 1 slice of bacon on mine but if you want them extra meaty, use two.
