Quick Breakfast Ring Recipes

BREAKFAST CRESCENT RING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spread the tater tots on a baking sheet and bake until just golden brown and crispy, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the heavy cream, eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
• Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until browned and crispy, 7 to 8 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Pour off the bacon drippings and reserve 2 tablespoons. Add 1 tablespoon of the drippings and the sausage to the skillet and heat over medium-high. Cook, breaking up any large chunks with a wooden spoon, until cooked through and brown in some spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Return the skillet over medium heat and add the remaining tablespoon of bacon drippings. Once hot and shimmering, add the egg mixture and cook, stirring frequently, with a rubber spatula, until soft and fluffy and almost completely cooked through but still a bit runny, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a clean large bowl.
• Coat the back of a baking sheet with cooking spray. Unroll both cans of crescent dough and separate unto 16 triangles. Put a 5-inch ramekin in the center of the prepared baking sheet. Arrange the triangles in a ring around the ramekin so the short sides of the dough are touching the ramekin, overlapping slightly, and the pointed ends are facing outward (it should look like a giant sun).
• Spoon the egg mixture over the short ends of the triangles closest to the ramekin. Sprinkle the sausage on top of the eggs then sprinkle the bacon over the sausage. Cover the bacon with the American and Cheddar cheese. Top with the potato tots and remove the ramekin. Take hold of the pointed end of one of the triangles and fold it up and over the filling, tucking the tip under the bottom edge of dough to secure (the dough will not cover the filling completely but should cover the tater tots). Repeat with the remaining triangles (there will be some gaps where you can see the filling).
• Bake until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 25 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes. Use a spatula to slide the ring off the baking sheet onto a platter. Serve with maple syrup, ketchup, hot sauce or white gravy if desired.

STICKY BUN BREAKFAST RING RECIPE

Steps:

• Spray a fluted pan with non-stick spray.
• Combine the melted butter and syrup in a small bowl and set aside.
• In another bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nuts (if desired).
• Place about half of the syrup mixture in the bottom of the pan. Then sprinkle half of the brown sugar mixture on top.
• Lay the biscuits on the bottom of the pan, overlapping edges (closely together) to form a ring.
• Top with remaining syrup and sugar mixtures.
• Bake at 375 degrees for approximately 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 1 minute in the pan, then invert onto a serving platter and enjoy!

LOADED EGG PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat large non-stick skillet on stove top to medium temperature.
• Sliced the bell pepper into thick slices (about 1 centimeter thick). Clean out the seeds and middle so it's just the pepper edges.
• Place the peppers in the pan on the stove top. Crack the egg into the bell pepper ring.
• Sprinkle desired amount of spinach, feta cheese, cherry tomatoes, and salt and pepper over the egg in the pepper.
• If you like your eggs soft, cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to preference.
• If you like your eggs hard, break up the yolk (I just used a fork) for even cooking.
• Cook 6-9 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to preference.
