Recently, I decided to put a delightful twist on a classic recipe I had shared before—creamy scrambled eggs. This time, I wanted to elevate the dish by incorporating it into a hearty and satisfying creamy egg and biscuit sandwich.
The secret to these creamy scrambled eggs lies in the addition of cream cheese, which gives them an incredibly rich and velvety texture. To add even more flavor, I opted for chive and onion cream cheese. This simple change transformed the dish into something truly special.
With the creamy scrambled eggs as the star, I decided to turn them into a delicious biscuit sandwich. These biscuit breakfast sandwiches were not only quick and easy to make but also a huge hit with the whole family. The combination of fluffy eggs, savory ham, and soft biscuits made for a perfect breakfast that everyone enjoyed. Give this recipe a try, and I’m sure it will become a new favorite in your household, too!

Instructions for Creamy Egg and Biscuit Sandwiches
Whisk the Eggs: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Cook the Eggs: In a large skillet, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the egg mixture to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until the eggs are almost set.
Add the Cream Cheese: Stir in the cream cheese and continue to cook and stir until the eggs are completely set and the cream cheese is fully melted and incorporated.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make these sandwiches ahead of time?
While these sandwiches are best enjoyed fresh, you can make the egg and ham filling ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. Reheat the filling and assemble the sandwiches with freshly split biscuits when ready to serve.
Can I add vegetables to the egg mixture?
Absolutely! You can add finely chopped vegetables such as bell peppers, onions, spinach, or mushrooms to the egg mixture. Sauté the vegetables in the skillet before adding the egg mixture for added flavor and texture.
How do I prevent the eggs from becoming overcooked?
To prevent overcooking, cook the eggs over medium heat and stir frequently. Remove the skillet from heat as soon as the eggs are just set, as they will continue to cook slightly from the residual heat.
What is the best way to reheat leftover sandwiches?
To reheat leftover sandwiches, wrap them in aluminum foil and warm them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes. You can also microwave them, but the oven method helps maintain the texture of the biscuits.
Can I freeze the sandwiches?
Yes, you can freeze the assembled sandwiches. Wrap each sandwich individually in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil. Freeze for up to 3 months. To reheat, thaw in the refrigerator and warm in the oven.
How can I customize these sandwiches?
You can customize these sandwiches by adding different ingredients such as bacon, sausage, or sliced avocado. You can also experiment with different types of bread, such as croissants or English muffins.
