How this recipe came to be
I'm going to let you in on a little secret. This recipe for Hard Boiled Egg Stuffed Biscuits is one I came up with a few years ago in the hopes it would gain me entry in the iconic Pillsbury Bake-Off.
Sadly, I never heard anything back regarding my submission, but I never forgot about this recipe and promised myself that one day I'd add it to the blog. Today is that day!
The convenience of store-bought hard-cooked eggs:
This is the first time I'd ever purchased the pre-boiled, pre-peeled eggs, and now that I have, I'm thinking they're a HUGE game changer.
Especially for someone like me who has always had trouble peeling the eggs cleanly after they've been cooked, and I'm not afraid to admit it!
If you haven't tried them before, I'm here to tell you they're an awesome product with no unappetizing grey ring around the yolk that happens if you cook the eggs a fraction of a moment too long.
Been there, done that!

Can these easy breakfast sandwiches be frozen?
Yes!
Wrap them individually in parchment paper or freezer paper and store them in zip-top bags or air-tight freezer containers for up to 2 months.
How to reheat egg stuffed biscuits after freezing?
Wrap the egg biscuits in a paper towel and microwave on medium-high for 1 minute.
If needed, return the breakfast sandwich to the microwave and continue heating on medium-high power for small increments of time (checking frequently) until hot.
How long will these grab and go breakfast sandwiches keep in the refrigerator?
Wrap them well, or store them in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
How to reheat egg stuffed biscuits after refrigeration?
To reheat refrigerated sandwiches in the oven, place the egg stuffed biscuits on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 10 minutes, or until hot.
To reheat refrigerated sandwiches in a microwave, wrap well in a paper towel and microwave on medium power for 40 seconds, or until hot.
Other easy recipes using hard-boiled eggs:
You'll notice that these egg stuffed biscuits are similar to Scotch eggs (pictured below), which were actually the inspiration for this recipe.
A Scotch Egg is a perfectly cooked hard-boiled egg that is surrounded by pork sausage and then pan-fried for a crunchy outside and a soft center.
