Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (approx. 16 oz) refrigerated flaky layers biscuit dough (8 count)
- 4 large eggs, scrambled and lightly seasoned
- 6 strips of bacon, cooked until crispy and crumbled
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Everything Bagel seasoning (optional)
- Fresh chives for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Start by cooking your bacon until it is nice and crispy. Once cooled, crumble it into small pieces. In a separate skillet, scramble the eggs over medium heat until they are just set. It is important not to overcook the eggs at this stage, as they will continue to heat up inside the air fryer. Let both the bacon and eggs cool slightly so they don’t melt the dough prematurely.
- Open the can of biscuits and separate them into 8 individual rounds. On a clean surface or a piece of parchment paper, use your fingers or a rolling pin to flatten each biscuit into a circle about 4 to 5 inches in diameter. Try to keep the center slightly thicker than the edges to prevent tearing.
- In the center of each flattened biscuit, place a spoonful of scrambled eggs, a sprinkle of crumbled bacon, and a generous pinch of shredded cheddar cheese. Be careful not to overfill them, or you will have trouble sealing the dough. Pull the edges of the dough up over the filling and pinch them together tightly to form a sealed ball.
- Arrange the bombs in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching. Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder and Everything Bagel seasoning. Cook at 330°F (165°C) for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through. Serve warm.
