Ingredients
1 can of refrigerated biscuit dough (Grands or store brand works fine)
4 large eggs, scrambled
1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite blend)
1/2 cup cooked breakfast meat (crumbled sausage, diced ham, or chopped bacon)
Optional: diced peppers, onions, or baby spinach
Cooking spray or a brush of oil
How to Make Air Fryer Biscuit Bombs
Scramble the eggs and cook your breakfast meat. Mix the eggs, meat, and cheese together in a bowl. Let it cool slightly so it’s easier to work with.
Flatten the Biscuits
Open the can of biscuit dough and separate them. Flatten each one into a 4–5-inch circle using your hands or a rolling pin.
Stuff the Biscuits
Spoon about 1–2 tablespoons of the egg mixture into the center of each dough round. Carefully bring the edges up and pinch closed to form a sealed ball. Place the seam side down.
Air Fry to Perfection
Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (if your model requires preheating). Spray the basket lightly with oil or cooking spray. Place the biscuit bombs in the basket, seam side down, leaving space between them.
Air fry for 7–9 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and cooked through.
Cool & Serve
Let cool for 2–3 minutes before serving. The inside will be hot!
