Cheesy Bacon Breakfast Buns image

These savory buns-think cinnamon rolls, but with cheese and bacon instead of a sweet sugary filling, are the perfect solution to those few pieces of leftover cooked bacon hanging out in the fridge. You can prep the dry mix up to one month ahead of time, and store it in a container at room temperature. Just give it a shake before using to re-mix the ingredients.

Time 45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling out dough
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup buttermilk
8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, melted
1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack
6 slices cooked bacon, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • To make the dough, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a deep bowl.
  • In a separate bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the buttermilk and 6 tablespoons of the melted butter. Pour over the dry ingredients, and stir together with a wooden spoon until it forms a shaggy dough.
  • Dump the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Using your fingertips, gently press the dough out into a 12-by-8-inch rectangle. Sprinkle the cheese on top, leaving a 1/4-inch border. Evenly sprinkle the bacon over the cheese. Roll the dough into a log, starting from the longest (12-inch) side nearest you. Pinch the ends closed. Cut into 8 equal pieces.
  • Using a pastry brush, use 1 tablespoon of the butter to coat the bottom and sides of an 8-inch round cake pan. Arrange the rolls, cut-side down, in the pan. Gently press them down with your fingertips to flatten slightly. Brush the tops of the buns with the remaining melted butter.
  • Bake until golden brown and the cheese is bubbly, 23 to 25 minutes. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes before serving.

These buns were okay. They were a bit bland, but they were still edible. I think they could have used more seasoning. I also think the bacon could have been cooked a little bit more.

I was disappointed with these buns. They were dry and dense, and the bacon was tough. I think I might have overcooked them, but even so, they were not very good. I would not recommend this recipe.

These buns were amazing! I've tried many breakfast bun recipes, but this one is by far the best. The buns were light and fluffy, and the bacon and cheese were the perfect combination. I will definitely be making these again and again.
