What Are Breakfast Bombs, Anyway?

Imagine a hot, buttery biscuit loaded with scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, gooey cheese, and maybe a little hot sauce for fun—sealed up and baked into a golden, handheld pocket of joy. That’s a breakfast bomb.

They’re:

• Quick to prep (especially if you’re using shortcuts like canned biscuit dough—no shame here)
• Super versatile (more on that soon)
• Portable (yes, breakfast in the car counts)
• And honestly… kind of addictive.

Ever had a breakfast sandwich that falls apart after two bites? Yeah, breakfast bombs fix that whole disaster.

Why You’ll Be Obsessed With These

Let me just list the reasons you’re going to want to make these every single morning (or at least freeze a batch for later):

• One-handed magic: No fork. No plate. Just grab, munch, and conquer the day.
• Totally customizable: Like eggs? Add ‘em. Hate sausage? Skip it. Love jalapeños? Throw ‘em in. You do you.
• Perfect for meal prep: Make a dozen, freeze them, and BOOM, breakfast for the week. Future you will be grateful.
• Crowd-pleasers: These make you look like a breakfast genius. Don’t be surprised if your friends start showing up uninvited.

Basic Ingredients You’ll Need (Feel Free to Get Creative)

Here’s the base to get you started. You can swap and switch till your heart (or stomach) is content.

🛒 Essentials:

• Canned biscuit dough (The flaky kind works best—Pillsbury Grands are a win!)
• Eggs (Scramble them ahead of time)
• Milk or cream (For fluffier eggs)
• Meat (Cooked bacon, breakfast sausage, or diced ham—your call)
• Shredded cheese (Cheddar, pepper jack, mozzarella… go wild)
• Butter (For brushing on top—because, obviously)

🍳 Optional but Awesome:

• Veggies: Peppers, onions, spinach, mushrooms (Cook them first, unless you enjoy soggy surprises)
• Seasonings: Garlic powder, hot sauce, everything bagel seasoning
• Extras: Jalapeños, avocado chunks, hash browns (Yes. Do it.)

FYI: Don’t go overboard with the filling or your biscuit won’t seal. And then you’ll end up with a messy situation that no one wants to deal with on a Monday morning :/

How to Make Breakfast Bombs (Step-by-Step)

Nervous? Don’t be. These are easier than finding socks that match. Here’s how you make them:

Step 1: Prep Your Filling

• Scramble 5–6 eggs with a splash of milk.
• Fry up your meat and chop it into bite-sized bits.
• Saute veggies if you’re using them.
• Mix everything in a bowl with the shredded cheese.

Pro tip: Let the filling cool a little so it doesn’t melt the dough on contact.

Step 2: Flatten the Dough

• Pop open that biscuit can (try not to flinch when it explodes).
• Flatten each biscuit round into a 4-inch circle using your fingers or a rolling pin.

Step 3: Fill & Seal

• Spoon about 2 tablespoons of filling into the center.
• Carefully fold the dough up over the mixture and pinch it shut.
• Place seam-side down on a lined baking sheet.

Warning: Don’t be tempted to overfill. You need that dough to seal—this isn’t a lava flow competition.

Step 4: Brush and Bake

• Brush tops with melted butter (add garlic powder or herbs if you fancy)
• Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 17–20 minutes—until golden and puffy.

Let them cool slightly before inhaling… I mean, gently enjoying them.

Breakfast Bombs vs. Other Breakfasts

Let’s keep it real. How do breakfast bombs measure up to their competition? Short answer: they dominate.

Compared to Breakfast Burritos:

• Less messy
• No soggy tortillas
• Easier to freeze and reheat (burritos tend to get weird IMO)

Compared to Egg Sandwiches:

• No squish factor
• Doesn’t fall apart by the third bite
• 100x more portable (IYKYK)

Compared to Just Scrambled Eggs & Bacon:

• Cute… but where’s the carb? You get everything in one bite here.

Look, we all love variety, but once you get on the bomb train, everything else just seems like extra work for less payoff.

How to Store & Reheat Your Bombs

Made too many? (Is that even possible?) Here’s how to store and revive them like a pro:

To Store:

• Fridge: Keep in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
• Freezer: Wrap each bomb individually in foil or plastic wrap, then toss them in a freezer-safe bag.

To Reheat:

• Microwave (quick option): 30–45 seconds for fridge bombs, 1–2 mins from frozen (wrap in a paper towel)
• Oven (crispy option): 350°F for 10-15 minutes until heated through
• Air fryer (chef’s kiss): 350°F for 5–8 minutes.

Honestly, that air fryer crisp + melted cheesy center? Chef’s kiss.

Final Pro Tips (Because I’ve Definitely Screwed These Up Before)

• Don’t skip sealing the dough completely—otherwise, the filling escapes and betrayal ensues.
• Let them rest before eating, or you’ll learn the hard way how hot molten cheese can be.
• Want a breakfast bar idea? Set out fillings and biscuit dough for a DIY bomb station—lazy brunch hosting = achieved.
