Notes

  • Biscuit pieces will rise slightly while baking, which is normal.
  • Can be assembled the night before and baked in the morning.
  • Swap cheese varieties for different flavors.
  • Add vegetables like spinach or bell peppers for extra nutrition.
  • Check doneness by ensuring the center is firm and not jiggly.
  • Letting it rest improves slicing and texture.
