Ham and Cheese Breakfast Biscuits
When you smoke a whole ham for Christmas and have lots leftover ham, the question becomes…what to do with all this ham?! Well the answer today, folks, is Ham and Cheese Breakfast Biscuits 🙂
Technically these were breakfast-for-dinner biscuits and they were a huge hit with my family.
How to Make Ham and Cheese Breakfast Biscuits
I got a roll of jumbo biscuits from the store and baked those according to the package directions.
I put them in a 9×13 casserole dish that I sprayed with some cooking oil.
As those baked I made the eggs for our breakfast sandwiches.
Just beat 6 eggs in a bowl and season with just a bit of kosher salt and pepper.
Then pour them in a large skillet with some butter, flip after a minute or two.
You have kind of like a giant egg pancake, and simply cut into 8 pieces.
Confession: I tried the trick with cracking an egg in a mason jar lid right into the pan.
Yeah, that didn’t work out too well for me.
If you get the flaky biscuits they naturally separate in the center.
So all I had to do was peel off the top half of each one.
Divide about a pound of pound of this gorgeous leftover ham, or get a pound of ham from the deli.
Place them evenly over the cooked biscuits like this 🙂
Next, top each with a piece of the egg and a slice of cheese.
Finally brush the tops with some melted butter that’s been mixed with mustard and worcestershire sauce.
Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
Everything is already cooked, we just want it to warm up and melt the cheese.
Ham and Cheese Breakfast Biscuits come out of the oven smelling heavenly and full of ooey gooey cheesy goodness!
