BREAKFAST CUPS



Breakfast Cups image

This is easy to make. I haven't tried yet, but think it could be frozen and reheated with good results. This is much better than ordinary sausage biscuits. I am going to try it with whole wheat next to see if that is even better. I adapted this from a cookbook put out by MIA-POW group.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 lb sausage, browned and drained
1/2 lb cheddar cheese, grated
6 eggs, beaten
1 (8 count) package Pillsbury Grands refrigerated buttermilk biscuits

Steps:

  • Open the biscuits (I used Grands, but others would do) and pull each apart into two halves. Press the dough into pre-sprayed muffin pans bringing up the edges to the top. The jumbo muffin size works well.
  • Mix other ingredients together and spoon into each biscuit.
  • Bake in 350 oven until golden brown.

Tips:

  • Experiment with different flavors and toppings: Don't be afraid to try different flavor combinations and toppings to find what you like best. Some popular options include cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, chocolate chips, and fruit.
  • Adjust the amount of milk or water: The amount of milk or water you use will affect the consistency of your breakfast in a cup. If you like a thicker consistency, use less liquid. If you prefer a thinner consistency, use more liquid.
  • Use a variety of grains: Don't limit yourself to just oats. You can also use quinoa, rice, or buckwheat. Each grain has its own unique flavor and texture, so experiment to find your favorite.
  • Make ahead of time: Breakfast in a cup is a great make-ahead breakfast. Simply prepare the oats and toppings the night before and store them in the refrigerator. In the morning, just add hot water or milk and microwave for a few minutes.

Conclusion:

Breakfast in a cup is a quick, easy, and delicious way to start your day. With so many different recipes to choose from, there's sure to be a breakfast in a cup that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're short on time, give breakfast in a cup a try. You won't be disappointed.
