I like to serve biscuits with scrambled eggs, cheese and a breakfast meat to overnight guests. They call them BOBs (Breakfast-on-a-Biscuit). Making the pre-formed scrambled egg disk is easy.

The beautiful thing is I can make everything in advance & just assemble & enjoy.

Serving Overnight Guests

I don’t know about you, but when I’m hosting guests I always stress about what to feed them.

Will I be able to make sure they can eat according to the schedule they’re accustomed to? How will I know when they’re hungry? Will I be able to whip up something delicious while not being shackled to the kitchen? 

And what will I serve?  What, what, WHAT??!!

If you stress about feeding guests too, I’m about to share one of my favorite breakfast-in-a-flash shortcuts.

Making Cooked Scrambled Egg Disks

I have an extra-large *silicone muffin pan that I use for so many things. Today it’ll help me make the egg portion of my breakfast sandwiches.

The day before my company arrives pre-bake my egg disks. It’s easy!

I lightly grease each muffin section and set it on a cookie sheet. (of course I’m using my favorite hint of putting Bacon Grease to good use!)

Then I mix up some of my free-range chicken’s eggs one at a time and add a splash of milk & a little salt & pepper. I pour in one mixed egg per cup.

Into a few of them I add some chopped jalapeno for those guests who enjoy a spicy kick. 

(cough *me* cough, cough…)

Now I place my silicone muffin tray of scrambled eggs into the oven set to 350 ºF and bake about 15-18 minutes or so. Those scrambled eggs will fluff  up high in the oven, but will deflate some when I bring them out.

After they’re cool I scoop out each cooked egg and store them in the fridge.

Making The Homestyle Biscuits

In preparation for my guests I also mix up my homemade Buttermilk Biscuit recipe.

I could go ahead & bake up the biscuits the day before company arrives. And sometimes I do. But most of the time I like to wait & bake the biscuits up fresh the morning after they arrive.

So whether I make the biscuits in advance or I store the dough in the fridge to wait until the next morning to bake the biscuits, when my guests awake breakfast is super fast! 

Since the biscuit dough is already made I just roll out the dough, cut and plop the biscuits on my pre-heated cast-iron skillet and bake them up fresh. Is there any more delightful aroma than freshly-baked biscuits in the morning??? 

I place the foil-wrapped scrambled egg disks in the oven to heat at the same time the biscuits are baking. How’s that for efficiency?

Assembling The Breakfast Biscuits

When the biscuits are done they’re cut in half and I add a warmed scrambled egg disk and a couple of pieces of thinly-sliced ham. 

Or sometimes I make my own homemade Breakfast Sausage and cook it into patties. Whatever breakfast meat you like can go here.

Then I top the whole shebangie with a slice of cheese, either pepper jack, American or Swiss.

The hot biscuits and eggs heat up the thinly-sliced ham and melt the cheese beautifully. But if I want them hotter a 5-10 second stint in the microwave will do the trick too.

What To Serve With Breakfast Biscuits?

Breakfast biscuits are a meal in themselves. But if you wanted to add something:

Fresh Cut Fruit

Chai Tea

Homemade Blueberry Muffins

Easy Homemade Hash Browns

Simple Homemade Cottage Cheese

Healthy Homemade Yogurt

Replace Purchased Convenience Food Breakfasts

You can use this same method to make your own breakfast biscuits for your freezer. How convenient (and CHEAP) to have these ready for those hectic mornings before school or work? Go ahead & make them up, cover them tightly & freeze them.

On those busy mornings you can remove a breakfast biscuit from the freezer & heat it quickly before school. It’s easy to send the kids out the door after enjoying a nice hot meal in a flash.

No need to buy convenience food. Now a grab-n-go breakfast biscuit is as close as your own freezer!
