Forget Frozen Breakfast Sandwiches: This 3-Ingredient Muffin Tin Hack Is A Game Changer

While frozen breakfast sandwiches are a popular commodity that many name and store brands offer, they sacrifice freshness for convenience. Luckily, it is surprisingly easy to make breakfast sandwiches that are convenient, fresh, and delicious, and you need only three ingredients: canned biscuits, eggs, and cheese. You'll also need a muffin tin.

There are many ways to use canned biscuits, and in the case of a breakfast sandwich, you'll pop the canned biscuits out of their tin and separate them into even halves. The trick is to then use two biscuit halves to seal in the savory fillings in between. Grease a muffin tin with cooking spray and place one biscuit half on the bottom. Pour a beaten egg over it, place a few slices of cheese, and finally, top the fillings with the other biscuit dough half. 

You'll want to bake the biscuit sandwiches for about 30 to 40 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or until they are golden on top and all the fillings have completely cooked and melted. The sandwiches will easily pop out of the muffin tins once they're done, while the gooey, fluffy cheese and eggs will keep the bouncy biscuit halves bound together for a self-contained breakfast sandwich that you can enjoy every day of the week.

The fact that you can make these easy biscuit sandwiches in a muffin tin makes them perfect for meal prepping. Once cooked, you can refrigerate them for up to four days. When you're ready to eat, reheat them in the microwave for a few seconds or pop them back in the oven for 10 or so minutes to crisp up the top and bottom of the biscuits. 

If you want to bring more flavor to the sandwiches, you can sprinkle seasonings over the egg and cheese mixture before topping them with the biscuit dough. A pinch of Cajun seasoning would bring a spicy and zesty kick to your eggs. If you're a fan of cheese, you can also sprinkle extra shredded cheddar over the top of the biscuit in the final few minutes of baking to create cheddar biscuit sandwiches. You can also add condiments like hot sauce, ketchup, flavored mayo, or an easy homemade hollandaise sauce to the sandwich after it's done cooking. 

You could even add meat to your breakfast sandwich filling. Place a strip of cooked bacon cut into halves or thirds into each sandwich. Or, if bacon isn't your favorite, swap it for breakfast sausage, chorizo, or ham. Experiment with different types of cheese and seasonings depending on your meat of choice. For example, pair spicy chorizo with pepper jack cheese, chopped jalapeños, and onions for a Southwestern breakfast sandwich to eat with avocado crema.
