Sheet Pan Egg In A Hole Biscuits Recipes

BISCUIT EGG-IN-A-HOLE

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
• Pulse together the flour, baking powder, sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons each salt and pepper in a food processor. Add the butter and pulse until pea-sized pieces form. Add the cheese and chives and pulse until just combined. Add the buttermilk and pulse a couple of times until the dough just comes together but is not fully incorporated.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat together gently into a ball. Use your hands to divide the dough into 6 even pieces. Generously coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Using the baking sheet as your work surface, pat each piece of dough into a 3 1/2-inch round about 3/4 inch thick. Arrange 3 dough rounds along the top long edge of the baking sheet, spacing them out evenly and making sure there is a 1/2-inch space between the dough rounds and the edges of the baking sheet. Arrange the remaining 3 dough rounds in the same fashion along the bottom long edge of the baking sheet. Cut the center out of each round with a 2-inch round cookie cutter. Arrange these smaller rounds evenly across the middle of the baking sheet.
• Brush the tops of all the dough pieces with buttermilk and bake until the smaller biscuits are golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove them and transfer to a plate.
• Lay a piece of ham over each of the large rounds. Push each ham piece down into the hole so that it forms a cup. Crack 1 egg into each of the ham cups. If a little of the egg white spills over, it's okay. Sprinkle the eggs with salt and pepper. Bake, rotating the pan front to back after 5 minutes, until the whites are just set and the yolks are still jiggly when you lightly shake the baking sheet, 8 to 12 minutes more.
• Use a spatula to remove them to individual plates and top each with a smaller biscuit piece for dipping into the egg.

CRANBERRY BRIE SHEET PAN BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Spray a sheet pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, baking soda and 2 teaspoons of the salt in a large bowl. Rub 4 tablespoons of the butter into the flour mixture with your fingertips until completely absorbed. Work the remaining 16 tablespoons butter into the flour mixture until pea-sized bits of butter remain. Use a fork to stir in the buttermilk until the mixture comes together into a shaggy dough. (Don't overmix the dough.)
• Add the Brie, parsley, cranberries, chives and thyme to the bowl and gently mix with lightly floured hands, folding the dough over itself (this is where the flaky layers will form) until the ingredients are just combined.
• Turn the dough out onto the prepared sheet pan and use lightly floured hands to evenly distribute the dough into the pan. Using a paring knife, gently score 24 squares on top of the dough, making sure the knife does not cut through to the bottom of the biscuit. (If baking the biscuits the following day, cover gently with plastic wrap at this point and refrigerate up to 24 hours.)
• Brush the top of the dough with more buttermilk. Bake until the biscuit top is lightly browned, 12 to 14 minutes. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then use a paring knife to follow the score marks to cut through the biscuits.
• Meanwhile, mix the honey with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Drizzle the honey over the warm biscuits. Serve the biscuits warm or at room temperature with more butter, if desired.

SHEET PAN EGG-IN-A-HOLE BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray.
• Separate the biscuits and put them on the prepared sheet pan. Brush 8 of the biscuits with the heavy cream. Sprinkle all the biscuits with the Cheddar, then the chives. Put each biscuit brushed with cream on top of an unbrushed biscuit to make 8 biscuit stacks. Space the stacks evenly on the sheet pan. Cut out the center of each stack with a 2-inch round cookie cutter. Put the cut-outs in the empty spaces on the sheet pan.
• Push a slice of ham down into each hole to make a cup that is deep enough to hold an egg comfortably. Crack 1 egg into each of the ham cups and sprinkle with the paprika.
• Bake until the biscuits are flaky and golden brown, the egg whites are just set and the yolks are still jiggly when you lightly shake the sheet pan, about 20 minutes.
• Serve each egg-in-a-hole with one of the biscuit cut-outs for dipping.

CUT-OUT BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a food processor. Pulse to combine. Pulse in the diced butter just a few times, until it is in pea-size pieces.
• Transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Stir in the milk or buttermilk until the dough just comes together but is not fully combined. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface, then gather the dough together and pat into a 3/4-inch-thick rectangle (5 by 10 inches). Fold the rectangle in half and pat until 3/4 inch thick again. Repeat the folding and patting process 4 more times, ending with a 3/4-inch-thick rectangle (5 by 10 inches).
• Dip a 2 1/2-inch round biscuit cutter in flour and cut out 8 biscuits, going all the way to the edge of the rectangle (don't leave any space between the biscuits when you cut). Gather the scraps together, kneading as little as possible; pat until 3/4 inch thick and cut out about 2 more biscuits. (Alternatively, use a sharp knife to cut the dough into 2 1/2-inch squares.)
• Place the biscuits on an ungreased, unlined baking sheet. Brush the tops lightly with milk or buttermilk. Bake until golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Mash butter with dill, capers, lemon zest and juice.
• Puree butter with mango chutney and curry powder.
• Puree butter with maple syrup and adobo sauce.

EGG-IN-A-HOLE SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside. Drain the grease from the skillet but do not clean. When cool enough to handle, tear the bacon slices in half.
• Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise and hot sauce to taste in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• Using a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass, cut a hole in the center of each Texas toast slice.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in the bacon skillet and add 2 of the Texas toast slices. Toast the bread slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Crack an egg into the hole in each piece of toast and sprinkle the eggs with salt and pepper. Cook the eggs until set on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a spatula, carefully flip the toast with the egg, season the other side and spread with the mayonnaise mixture. Top each with a slice of cheese to slightly melt and cook until the egg is the desired doneness. Remove to a cutting board and repeat with the remaining butter, toast, eggs, mayo mixture and cheese.
• To build the sandwiches, divide the bacon between 2 of the egg-in-a-hole toast pieces, on top of the cheese. Top each with some tomato slices and lettuce, then top with a remaining egg-in-a-hole toast piece. Serve immediately or wrap in foil to keep warm.
