Mini Breakfast Pies (Emilie)
3/4 pound breakfast sausage
1/8 cup minced onion
1/8 cup minced green bell pepper
1 (12 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough (do NOT get the big biscuits because they will overflow in the pans)
3 eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons milk
1/2 cup shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese
muffin pan - these work better in the muffin pans that make 6 at a time so you don't have anything spilling over the edges
-
You can do cooked, crumbled bacon and/or ham in this as well! Also put
whatever vegetables you like, too (diced mushrooms, fresh spinach,
diced tomatoes...)!
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 (a turkey baster is a
good way to suck the egg mixture out of the bowl and squirt over the
sausage). Sprinkle tops with shredded cheese. Bake in preheated oven
for 18 to 20 minutes, or until filling is set.
