Instructions

1. Preheat oven according to the instructions on the biscuit can.
2. Prepare muffin tins by spraying them with non-stick spray.
3. Prepare biscuit dough: Take off the top 1/3 of each biscuit and set aside. Take the remaining 2/3 of each biscuit, flatten them, and mold them into the muffin sections of the tin; set aside.
4. Prepare filling: In a skillet, sauté the mushrooms and diced onion in butter until softened and fragrant; then, transfer to a bowl and set aside.
5. Cook sausage: In the same skillet, fry the sausage until fully cooked and nicely browned, crumbling it with a utensil as it cooks. Once cooked, drain excess grease from the sausage.
6. Combine ingredients: Return the cooked sausage to the skillet and add the sautéed onions and mushrooms. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until well combined.
7. Assemble pockets: Spoon a generous portion of the sausage mixture into each prepared muffin tin, ensuring they are evenly distributed. Place the reserved 1/3 biscuit on top of each pocket as a lid, gently pressing down the edges to seal.
8. Bake: Follow the baking instructions on the biscuit can, baking until the pockets are golden brown and the filling is heated through.
9. Serve: Once baked to perfection, remove the breakfast pockets from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy these warm, savory delights with your favorite breakfast accompaniments!
