Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (16 oz) can refrigerated buttermilk biscuits, cut into quarters
  • 1 lb bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional: chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

  2. Cook the bacon until crispy, drain, and crumble. Set aside.
  3. Cut biscuits into quarters and layer them evenly in the dish.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  5. Sprinkle bacon over biscuit pieces, then top with cheddar cheese.
  6. Pour the egg mixture over the top, ensuring everything is coated.
  7. Bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes, or until golden and eggs are set.
  8. Let cool 5–10 minutes. Garnish with green onions if desired and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use thick-cut bacon for better texture.
  • To prep ahead, assemble and refrigerate overnight before baking.
  • Swap biscuits with hash browns for a variation.
  • Freezes well for up to 2 months once fully baked and cooled.
