Hamptons Egg Cheese Biscuit Recipe (Viral Sandwich) 🍳🥯
The Hamptons Egg Cheese Biscuit is a delightful breakfast sandwich that combines fluffy scrambled eggs, melted cheese, and a buttery biscuit for a perfect start to your day. Its viral status comes from the irresistible combination of flavors and textures, making it both comforting and satisfying.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour for the biscuit dough
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter cold and cubed
- 3 large eggs large, beaten
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons chives chopped, for garnish
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and sea salt. Whisk until well mixed.
- Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour in the whole milk and mix until just combined. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick round and cut into biscuits using a biscuit cutter.
- Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While the biscuits are baking, scramble the beaten eggs in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and season with black pepper.
- Once the biscuits are done, slice them in half and fill each with the cheesy scrambled eggs. Garnish with chopped chives before serving.
Notes
Tip 1: Ensure the butter is very cold to achieve flaky biscuits.
Tip 2: You can make the biscuit dough ahead of time and refrigerate it until ready to bake.
