Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 1 cup milk
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
• 8 slices cooked bacon or cooked sausage patties
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the milk. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
5. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it gently a few times until it comes together.
6. Roll out the dough to about 1/2-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out round biscuits.
7. Place half of the biscuit rounds on the prepared baking sheet. Top each with a slice of cooked bacon or a cooked sausage patty.
8. In a small bowl, beat together the eggs and season with salt and pepper. Pour the beaten eggs evenly over the bacon or sausage.
9. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the egg mixture.
10. Place the remaining biscuit rounds on top of the cheese-egg layer, pressing down gently to seal the edges.
11. Bake the biscuits for about 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown.
12. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
13. Enjoy your fluffy and delicious breakfast biscuits!
