I found the original recipe for this great breakfast-for-dinner idea over at Amy’s Cooking Adventures. Putting an egg on top of batter in a waffle iron sounded like a pretty nifty approach to me, so I dove right in and made some waffle iron eggs and biscuits. This really is breakfast-in-a-bite. Everything you need. Everything you want. I thought these were a really fun idea. And they really hit the spot, too. I didn’t really need help loving waffles any more but these certainly made that happen.

Expect A Little Mess. It’s Worth It.

I have to warn you, you’re going to make a mess making these waffle iron eggs and biscuits. There’s really no way around it. No matter how gently you close the iron lid, somewhere along the line you’re going to pop a yoke and it’s going to run out. That’s ok, though. It’s worth the mess.

Guess what? You can also make chocolate chip ‘cookies’ using your waffle iron!

Equipment

Waffle Maker

Ingredients

2 ½ cups Bisquick plus a little more for dusting
⅔ cup low fat milk
4 slices bacon cooked, drained, crumbled
1 cup cheese shredded (Swiss, cheddar, whichever you prefer)
6 large eggs
4 tablespoons unsalted butter cut into pats
½ pound breakfast sausage cooked drained, crumbled
maple syrup

Instructions

Preheat you waffle iron as directed by the manufacturer and spray with non-stick spray as needed
Combine biscuit mix and milk until a dough forms.
Lightly dust a cutting board with more baking mix. Roll the dough out using a rolling pin until it is about 1/4″ thick. Cut into shapes slightly smaller than your waffle iron. (Our waffle iron is round. I found a saucer that was just smaller than the iron and used that as my template for cutting the dough).
Working in batches, place the dough pieces onto your waffle iron. Sprinkle with some bacon and cheese and top with a single egg each. (If you sprinkle the cheese in a circular pattern, creating a sort of ‘well’, the egg will not slide off as easily).
Very, very gently lower the top of the waffle iron and cook until done.
Serve topped with butter, sprinkled with the breakfast sausage crumbles, and drizzled with pure maple syrup.

Tasty Fun

Add walnuts, pecans, fruit… Use whatever toppings you like to these cinnamon roll waffles. Or just pour some warmed real maple syrup on top and enjoy. I use my lil Cuisinart Classic Waffle Maker for making these. It works like a charm. I can make four mini waffles at a time. The first waffle usually gets ‘sacrificed’ in the name of ‘quality control’. That’s another word for ‘I can’t control myself so I have to eat one’.

Cinnamon Roll Waffles

This is the easiest breakfast you’ll ever make. And certainly one of the most addicting. Just fire up your waffle maker and add a few out-of-the-can cinnamon rolls.
