- Basting brush
- Spatula
Step 1: Preparation for the Morning Bombs
- 1 can (8-count) Southern Homestyle Buttermilk Biscuits, not flaky
- 1½ cups (169.5 g) mild cheddar cheese, shredded, divided
- 1 cup scrambled eggs, prepared to your liking (about 4–5 eggs depending on size), divided
- 8 precooked sausage links, chopped (about 1 cup), divided
- ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Step 2: Cooking the Morning Bombs
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Prepare a 12-inch, oven-safe skillet by spraying it with nonstick cooking spray. On a clean work surface, flatten each biscuit to about ⅛-inch thickness. Generously distribute the shredded cheese across the biscuits, ensuring edges are free. Top each biscuit with equal amounts of scrambled eggs and chopped sausage.
Step 3: Assembling and Finishing
Bring the sides of the biscuit up and pinch them tightly to seal in the ingredients. Arrange the biscuits, sealed side down, in the prepared skillet. Mix the melted butter with the salt and brush half of this mixture over the tops of the biscuits. Bake them for 20–23 minutes or until they’re golden brown. After removing them from the oven, brush with the remaining butter and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top. Serve warm, allowing the cozy flavors to envelop you.
