Every time I make this, it sticks to the bottom and gals apart. I tried to eliminate the cheese layer on the bottom, but it still sticks. Any ideas? Thanks!
Melissa
Are you using a non stick bundt pan? It could make the difference for you although, when liberally coated with butter or cooking spray, it shouldn't stick at all. If you haven't tried coating the pan with butter give it a whirl.
Angela Mansell
I don't have a bundt pan. Can I use a loaf tin instead?
Melissa
I haven't tested this in a loaf pan, but you likely could adapt it. It may take longer for the center to bake thru so, lay a piece of foil on top toward the end of baking, if you need to lengthen the time.
Lynnette
This is so delicious! Love it when I find recipes the whole family will eat.
Thank you!
Melissa
I'm so happy your family enjoys this, thanks!
Vickie
Can you use sausage instead of bacon?
Melissa
If you like.
Wendy
Absolutely delicious!! The biscuit is sooo tender and filled with a punch of flavor from the cheese and bacon. This is the best breakfast bundt I’ve tried. Thank you for sharing!
Melissa
Thanks so much!
Carla
I served it with bacon gravy on top
Melissa
Perfect!
Linda
I loved the brunch pan bacon egg and cheese recipe. My question leave out or refrigerate I think I know but I wanted to be sure. Thanks for sharing.
Linda
Melissa
Please chill leftovers, this bread reheats well, thanks!
Rita Braddock
Made this for Thanksgiving Brunch!
Excellent dish!!!! A little time consuming, but worth every minute of it!!! Very delicious!!!!
Melissa
Wonderful, thank you so much!
Eden Reynolds
This recipe exceeded our high expectations and delighted me and my family! I will be making it again, and I will be checking your other recipes. Have already shared this recipe with two people. Thank you for sharing this delicious creation!
Melissa
Thanks so much!
Sara
Can I use yogurt in the place of heavy cream? I do this with general cooking but not sure about doing it with baking!
Melissa
Yogurt works great in baking as a substitute for sour cream. That said, for this particular bread, the cream is what makes the biscuit dough. You would be better off using cream as in the recipe, half and half or buttermilk.
Nicole Baran
Can I make the night before if I bake it the next morning?
Melissa
This should be assembled and baked.
Camille Scifo
Can't wait to make this! What dairy can I use to substitute for cream? Half & Half?
Melissa
You could use half & half but, if you want to make a change my first choice would be whole fat buttermilk.
Jamie
Could almond flour be used in place of self-rising to reduce carbs?
Melissa
With some adjustments for leavening, probably. Sounds like a great experiment!
Laurie
This was really good! I scrambled six large eggs as five wouldn't have been quite enough. I also used ham instead of bacon since one of my weekend guests doesn't like bacon (?!?!). I will definitely make it again and add some fresh spinach and/or quickly stir-fried mushrooms, peppers and onions before I put the egg layer down. Thanks for a wonderful recipe, Melissa!
Melissa
So happy you enjoyed this one, Laurie. No bacon?! Ham is a good alternative, though. Thank you for such a sweet note, much appreciated.
Sara
Hope it's as good as it looks!!!!!!
Melissa
Hope you like it. Keep in mind this is a biscuit bread and not the texture of a sourdough. Feel free to spread butter on a slice just like you would a hot biscuit. Enjoy!
Amy
Do you think you could substitute egg beaters for the eggs?
Melissa
I think you could, just make sure they're soft scrambled so they won't overcook.
Maggie
I just made this. Everyone thought it was really good. 2 of my children said it needs to be lighter. I know it's like a biscuit texture so I am not sure how to make this a little lighter. If someone is worried about the eggs being rubbery. NO they do not get rubbery. I undercooked mine just a tad because it's going to bake in the oven. My husband recommended that gravy you put over biscuits and gravy. I don't care for that but it would make this a bit more moist. I still want suggestions on how to lighten this up in texture. Thanks so much because this is delicious. I made 3 lbs. of bacon ahead of time and froze the rest for future recipe's and I froze the bacon grease for cooking later too. Lots of things you can measure and prep early. Any more ideas on breakfast bakes would be great. Thanks again and have a blessed day!
Melissa
The texture of this is not like a yeast bread it's biscuit dough.
Kathy
Try replacing the heavy cream with buttermilk.
Barbara Smith
Where can I get nutritional value for this recipe?
Melissa
Because those values vary greatly depending on brands used in any given recipe, you should use one of the many free online calculators based on how you made this dish.
John Scott
We made it with Cabot classic cheddar, organic cage free eggs and Applegate bacon and it came out absolutely delicious! I would imagine you could make it with sausage crumbles and experiment with different types of cheese, perhaps mixing in some smoked gouda or gruyere. Thanks so much for the recipe, this is an amazing treat. It's so good it may become a Christmas morning tradition in our house.
Melissa
John, I'm delighted you enjoyed this as much as we do. I consider that very high praise to consider serving it for such a special breakfast! The sky is the limit with cheese variations, enjoy.
Phyllis
Could you use drained breakfast sausage instead of bacon?
Melissa
Sure or diced ham, if you like.
Marilyn
My question is what keeps the scrambled eggs from becoming rubbery?
Melissa
They don't become rubbery. However, if you're concerned you could make them in advance and chill them although I never do.
T Endsley
Could this be made the night before and bake in the morning?
Melissa
This isn't like an overnight casserole, it's bread. So, you cold make the scrambled eggs and bacon in advance but, the biscuit dough should be made just before baking.
Donna Ethridge
Can this be frozen? i have a friend who just had a baby & i wanted to take some freezer friendly meals so she could use them as needed.
Melissa
I haven't frozen this but, my thought is that once fully cooled it could be frozen.
Nicole Jackson
Can I use lactose free milk instead of heavy cream?
Melissa
I've never tried it but, it sounds like a great experiment. Let me know if you give it a whirl.
Barbara L Belt
Can I use regular flour and if so any changes? Love this idea. I go to AM potlucks and this sounds perfect. Thank you for the recipes.
Melissa
If you use all-purpose flour you have to add leavening. Checkout my Baking Ingredient Substitutions here to convert.
eileensideways
looks delicious; i can't wait to make it.
Melissa
Thanks!
Nancy
Directions to reheat. If I make it the night before can I reheat it the next morning?
Melissa
Nancy, yes you can. Now, you can do this gently in the microwave or in the oven. Watch both carefully. Then wait to brush with the melted butter and chives just before serving.
Patricia
Wondering if I could make a biscuit dough with Betty Crocker gluten free bisquick as my daughter is celiac and I'm sure gonna give it a try. Looks awesome.
Melissa
You probably could adapt using that, sure.
Pattie
Or just use a good all purpose gluten free flour and baking powder. It turns out great. Usually with gf it needs to bake about 10-15 extra minutes
Lynnette Shimmin
I've been making a version of this for over 20 years with Gluten Free pancakes mix. My favorite however isn't Bisquick, it's Franz for the much better texture (not gritty) AND flavor (has a sweet element to it).
It's a REAL hit. Good luck.
BETTY MANOULIAN
Lynnette,
If you've been making it for the past 20 years it has to be good.
Would you be willing to share your version of this recipe?
Thanks
Lola Duncan
Did you try making it gluten free? If so would you tell me what you did. Thank you, Lola
Melissa
I never have. If you try it, let me know how it goes.
Joan
I am going to try this recipe and use gluten free Namaste waffle mix as it would be self rising later this week for my granddaughter visiting here this week.
Cooki Turner
I would love to try Borden products but I live in rural Arizona & the 2 grocery stores don't carry anything Borden. I'll still make for a Domestic Violence meeting the members will enjoy immensely.
Melissa
Ah what a shame! I do hope you get a chance to make this it travels well.
Nicole A
Hi Melissa I don’t heavy cream can I use milk instead? If so would it be the same measurement amount as the heavy cream? Thank you!
Melissa
Hi Nicole, it will react differently but, you can adapt using thee same amount of milk or buttermilk, preferably whole fat versions.
Teajaejae
such a wonderful idea will be making it ????
Melissa
Thanks so much hope you love it!
Tina
Could I use buisquick instead of flour??
Melissa
You could probably adapt this using Bisquick, though I haven't tested it. Let me know how it goes if you try it.
