Breakfast Pies
SUBMITTED BY:

"Individual breakfast pies that can be made ahead of time, and microwaved as needed. My 3 year old grandson loves them, and they are finger food for the little ones. The big guys love them too. I fix hash browns and gravy as side dishes for the big guys, and it is a huge hit!"

3/4 pound breakfast sausage

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
In a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat, combine sausage, onion and green pepper. Cook until sausage is evenly brown. Drain, crumble, and set aside.
Separate the dough into 10 individual biscuits. Flatten each biscuit out, then line the bottom and sides of 10 muffin cups. Evenly distribute sausage mixture between the cups. Mix together the eggs and milk, and divide between the cups. Sprinkle tops with shredded cheese.
Bake in preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until filling is set.
FOOTNOTE
I use my turkey baster to suck the egg mixture out of the bowl, and then I squirt it over the sausage. This works great, and not nearly as messy as trying to pour the mixture into each muffin cup.

These were good, however it turned into a FIASCO! What ever you do, do not use "Grands" as your biscuit dough. They rose so much that the egg mixture spilled over the sides & burnt on the bottom of the oven. I love the idea, and next time will bake them in individual remikins. Thanks Jeanne!

I would like to give this recipe at least 5 stars for "Kid Friendly" My daycare kids loved these. I did change the recipe since kids usually don't like onions and peppers, I used bacon, ham and sausage. Yummmmmmm!!!!!

These are pretty good! I made them for my husband and I to have something quick in the morning before he heads off to work. It's nice to be able to have something hpt and hearty tasting without the mess of cleaning up breakfast dishes first thing in the morning! I made mine with a smaller amount of hot italian sausage (maybe 1/4 pound) to cut back on the fat and calories and I used a tube of eight "flaky layer" biscuits and used only about 3/4 of a biscuit rolled out for each one so I ended up with 12 "pies", and increased the eggs to 4. I also omitted the onion and green peppers and added a little black pepper and onion powder to the egg mixture. They turned out great!! This a great recipe because you can custom make them however your family likes their eggs! A sprinkle of tabasco sauce on top, and we've got breakfast!

Thanks Jeanne, these came out very nice. Helps to let the biscuits sit out a couple minutes so they're easier to work with.

I make these every Easter for brunch, and they are a huge hit! Leftovers reheat nicely too. I recommend using the larger muffin pans (the kind that you make 6 jumbo muffins in). That way, they don't overflow and you can add in extra toppings. You will need to increase bake time though... Thanks for a wonderful recipe!

Basic concept is great. The biscuits tend to get tough when rolled out again - but my 15-month-old loved gumming them. I used leftover ham from Christmas dinner with green onion and spinach as a filling (ANYTHING to get her to eat some vegetables). She LOVED it. I had two for dinner and I froze the rest for her. I would suggest either making the biscuit dough from scratch to keep the texture soft or using pie crust instead.

Made this many times, guests love it. I make spicy sausage and vegetarian, both wonderful. I found that a mixing cup with spout works best for getting the egg into the shell. I hope to make a lower-fat version since we can never stop with just one! You can modify it to your heart's delight, reheats well in microwave.

Yummy! Fun and different too. I made mine with sauteed tomatoes, spinach, mushrooms, and onion and I used bacon instead of sausage. They were delish, and my hubby loved them too!

I made this tonight for my MOPS group tomorrow morning and I almost thought I was going to have to pick something up from the grocery store! I followed recipe exactly and the muffins spilled over to the bottom of my oven and my whole house filled with smoke! My husband and I split one and I will be taking them tomorrow morning. If I do make these again, I might try using pie crust. It won't puff up as much and spill out all the egg.

Not bad, but I think the recipe would be better if you mixed the filling ingredients together first and added extra cheese. It is a nice idea. I will keep experimenting with it. Thanks!
