Breakfast Stuffed Waffles
The most epic YET EASIEST portable breakfast. Biscuit dough is transformed into waffles, stuffed with cheesy scrambled eggs!
Didn’t we already discuss that anything that’s “stuffed” is an automatic win?
So we don’t need to go through that again, right? Because I basically stuffed biscuit dough with some scrambled eggs and cheese. Then I waffled it.
Wait. Is “waffled” a word?
I’m pretty experienced with waffles but I’m pretty sure it’s not a verb.
Nonetheless. It’s waffled.
You’re welcome.
Breakfast Stuffed Waffles
The most epic YET EASIEST portable breakfast. Biscuit dough is transformed into waffles, stuffed with cheesy scrambled eggs!
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ cup diced red bell pepper
- ¼ cup diced green bell pepper
- 4 large eggs, lightly beaten
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 16-ounce tube refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
- 8 slices cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the top and bottom of the waffle iron or coat with nonstick spray.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add bell peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add eggs to the skillet and cook, whisking, until they just begin to set; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Continue cooking until thickened and no visible liquid egg remains, about 3-5 minutes; set aside.
- Separate biscuits into 8, cutting each biscuit in half lengthwise to create 16 pieces.
- Working in batches, place biscuit halves into the waffle iron. Top with cheese slices, egg mixture and additional biscuit half. Close gently and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 3-4 minutes.
- Serve immediately.

Made these for Mother’s Day this year as I was looking for something easy that my little ones could help with. WOW! I followed the recipe exactly as written and they were great!!
I was unsure about buying “flaky-layer” style biscuits, but I think that made it much easier to split them into halves.
The best part was that the filling got hot again on the grill, and the sandwiches seemed to stay hot for several minutes. So in other words, it didn’t matter that I made the filling first, and it cooled a bit on the plate before I got around to putting it on the waffle iron.
We will definitely make these again.
What a unique idea- I have not seen this elsewhere on the internet (I could have missed it!) My sandwiches came out tasting more like bread rather than the filling, but I think it is my fault for using “jumbo” biscuits. I would recommend using the thinnest biscuits you can find, so it doesn’t overpower the egg mixture. I also put a little bit of Curry in the eggs to give a touch more flavor. The last 2 I tried with jelly- don’t do this- it makes a mess to clean in your waffle maker! I will try this again with thin biscuits. Love the concept. Thanks for sharing!
I mean, you win. At EVERYTHING.
Chungah, this recipe “Breakfast Stuffed Waffles” outstanding, with new, bubble waffle maker. I enjoy mushrooms, so I added that to the mixture to give it more flavor. YUM!
Hi
Thx for your great recipe
Can I use the puff pastry or crescent roll dough instead of biscuits!?
What a great idea! But unfortunately, without having tried it myself, I cannot answer with certainty. As always, please use your best judgment regarding substitutions and modifications.
These came out awesome, despite my mistakenly buying crescent rolls instead of biscuits – Derp. Thanks, love how easy and yummy your recipes are!
Chungah HI, I am daily eating waffles by different topping.
“Waffled” is definitely a verb 🙂 I became obsessed with my waffle-maker last year and my boss told me I should start a blog, so I did. I’ve let it go since my more recent kitchen gadget obsession took over (Instant Pot electric pressure cooker — it’s a game-changer!), but I think the waffle iron needs to come out of retirement sooner rather than later… http://thingsihavewaffled.tumblr.com/post/122339402652/waffled-cinnamon-buns-redux-much-improved
Thanks for this recipe, it came just in time for us because we’re having some friends over for a barbecue tomorrow, and Lord knows some will need to stay the night. 😉 How early do you suppose I can make this and put it in the fridge for the next day? Thanks for sharing this recipe!
I would not recommend going longer than 12 hours. But as always, please use your best judgment.
Have you frozen and tried to reheat these? Looking for meal prep ideas, and as the recipe indicates they are less than a jimmy dean breakfast sandwich, as calories go.
Unfortunately, I cannot answer this with certainty as I have never tried freezing this myself – there were no leftovers left to freeze! Please use your best judgment for freezing and reheating.
It’s a great idea. Waffles is my pleasure every day.
I’m adding Waffled to my everyday vocabulary 🙂 . What an awesome idea, that stuffed waffle would brighten up anyone’s morning commute.
So gorgeous! I would love such breakfast!
Chungah, are we going to have your cookbooks delivered to us by next week of we preordered? I just can’t wait. If you tour pls let me know, I don’t think I live more than 50 min away from you.
Yes, you should receive it next week if you have already pre-ordered! 🙂
This looks so good! When I saw the images I didn’t think that it was going to be made like that. It looks really simple and I’ll certainly try to recreate that ASAP!

Yum!!! What are your thoughts on adding bacon or sausage to the mixture, do you think it would still work?
Yes, absolutely!
Thanks for the recipe! Can you pls give us an alternative to the tube refrigerated buttermilk biscuits? I am not sure I can get that here where I live.
If biscuit dough is not available, you can go the old-fashioned route and use waffle batter! 🙂
Oh my word! This is probably the most perfect idea ever.
