Omelet biscuits are a delightful breakfast or brunch option, combining the goodness of biscuits with the flavors of a fluffy omelet. Here’s how you can make them:
Ingredients:
For the Omelet:
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk or cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fillings of your choice (diced vegetables, cooked meats, cheese, herbs)
For the Biscuits:
- Store-bought biscuits or homemade biscuit dough
Instructions:
- Prepare the Omelet:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk or cream, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little butter or oil.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and allow it to cook for a minute or so until the edges start to set.
- Add Fillings:
- Sprinkle your desired fillings (such as diced vegetables, cooked meats, cheese, herbs) evenly over the omelet while the top is still slightly runny.
- Allow the omelet to continue cooking until the top is mostly set but still slightly runny.
- Fold the Omelet:
- Carefully fold one side of the omelet over the fillings, creating a half-moon shape. Press gently with a spatula to seal.
- Prepare the Biscuits:
- While the omelet is finishing, prepare your biscuits according to package instructions or use homemade biscuit dough.
- If using homemade dough, shape it into individual biscuit rounds and bake according to the recipe.
- Assemble the Omelet Biscuits:
- Once the biscuits are baked and golden brown, allow them to cool slightly.
- Cut the biscuits in half horizontally to create a top and bottom.
- Place the Omelet:
- Place a folded omelet on the bottom half of each biscuit.
- Serve:
- Cover each omelet with the top half of the biscuit to create omelet biscuits.
- Serve the omelet biscuits warm as a delicious and filling breakfast or brunch option.
These omelet biscuits are versatile, allowing you to customize the omelet fillings to suit your taste. They’re a great way to enjoy a classic breakfast combination in a convenient handheld form!
