- Total Time: 25 minutes
- Diet: Protein-packed
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (12 oz) refrigerated flaky layers biscuits (usually 8 or 10 count, you will use 4-8)
- 4 pre-cooked breakfast sausage patties (thawed if frozen)
- 4 large eggs
- 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Optional: Hot sauce or maple syrup for serving
Instructions
- Place 4 to 8 biscuits in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not touch. Lightly brush the tops with melted butter. Air fry at 330°F (165°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the centers are cooked through. Remove the biscuits and set them aside, splitting them in half once they are cool enough to touch.
- While the biscuits are cooling, crack each egg into a small, greased ramekin or a silicone egg mold that fits inside your air fryer. Lightly whisk the yolk with a fork if you prefer a scrambled style, or leave it whole for a fried-egg feel. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place the ramekins with eggs and the pre-cooked sausage patties in the air fryer basket. Cook at 350°F (175°C) for 5-6 minutes. The eggs should be set but tender, and the sausage should be heated through and slightly crisp on the edges.
- Place the bottom half of each biscuit on a plate or back in the air fryer basket. Top with a cooked sausage patty, an egg (carefully popped out of the ramekin), and a slice of cheddar cheese. Place the top half of the biscuit over the cheese.
- Place the assembled sandwiches back into the air fryer for 1 minute at 350°F (175°C). This ensures the cheese is perfectly melted and the whole sandwich is piping hot. Serve immediately.
