Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Fillings
- 1 cup cooked breakfast sausage, crumbled
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup chopped bell peppers
- 1/2 cup chopped spinach
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
Other
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8-count, cut into quarters)
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix Egg Base: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy for a uniform mixture.
- Add Fillings: Stir in the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped bell peppers, spinach, and green onions, ensuring everything is evenly distributed.
- Incorporate Biscuit Dough: Gently fold in the quartered biscuit dough pieces into the egg and filling mixture until each piece is lightly coated but not overly mixed, preserving texture.
- Fill the Bundt Pan: Pour the mixture into the prepared bundt pan, pressing down lightly to spread and distribute the ingredients evenly within the pan.
- Bake: Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, signaling it is cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the bundt cake to cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes before carefully inverting it onto a serving plate. Slice and serve warm for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- For a vegetarian version, swap the sausage with cooked bacon or a plant-based alternative.
- This bundt cake can be prepared ahead of time and reheated for busy mornings.
- Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the egg mixture for a subtle spicy kick.
