From Starbucks-inspired egg cups and crowd-pleasing casseroles to cozy baked goods, you’ll find a new morning favorite here.\n<\/p>\n

“These are great to have for the morning commute breakfast. I lined the pan with parchment instead of using the oil. They popped out and were super easy to cut into bars.” \u2014Debbie Bigham\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“Wonderful recipe and heavenly good dough to work with. I added softened butter to dough before cinnamon mixture. I baked for 25 min at 360 degrees F I used cream cheese frosting……Delicious! Thank you for the recipe.” \u2014Debra\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“Made these for my ‘finicky breakfast’ boyfriend. Loved them! I love that I can grab one, throw it in the air fryer, and he has a great breakfast that keeps him full.” \u2014Karen B\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“I cooked my bacon separately since I am picking about bacon. Such a basic recipe\u2014you can add anything you desire. I added green onions and served with homemade salsa, sliced avocados. My whole family enjoyed the meal, and I have two picky eaters.” \u2014Chef Mia\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“This is a great way to do a batch of these for a group. I froze the extras for kids to do a grab-and-go breakfast as they are running out to the bus. These will be a regular batch cooking for our house.” \u2014sanzoe\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“Delicious and easy! I used homemade turkey sausage, and my dry mustard had some spices in it. Will make again.” \u2014Linda T\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“Just made these and they exceeded my expectations! Made exactly like recipe stated even though I was tempted to add more spices. They were perfect. I’ve tried several bran muffin recipes lately, and these win hands down for moistness, flavor and texture. While they don’t taste chocolatey\u2014they have a rich depth of flavor that’s irresistible! I’ve found the recipe I’ve been looking for!!” \u2014cathcooks\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“I thought this was great because it’s so much easier and faster than making them in the skillet. A person could doctor these up however they are wanted. The time seemed spot on.” \u2014Whatamigonnaeatnext\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“I used 1 lb of cooked bulk breakfast sausage instead of the ham, and a layer of Udi’s whole-grain sandwich bread (crust removed), to make this gluten-free. The baking time was 50 minutes in total. It was delicious!” \u2014twright1231\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“I make this recipe on Christmas Eve each year and the pop it in the oven on Christmas morning. It is super yummy and my family asks for it every year. Best part is, no cooking on Christmas morning.” \u2014Mugsy\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“If you love lemon, you must try these scones. You will love them. They have the perfect texture and a fabulous lemon flavor. I\u2019m lazy, so I used my food processor to cut the butter into the flour mixture, and then added the liquid mixture through the shoot. Fast and easy, just be sure you don\u2019t over process. This is a keeper.” \u2014Deb C\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“They were delish. Will keep making them, great source of protein. Will be my go to morning grab as I head out the door for the gym in the mornings.” \u2014LankyMango9117\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“Very easy recipe. I\u2019ve made it a dozen times. I\u2019ve made modifications at times, too! Added cinnamon, vanilla, buttered pecans and homemade caramel sauce to the top before baking. Love it!!!” \u2014DelightAde<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“It’s a go to for me and my family loves it! Bringing it to a potluck this Thursday and I love something I can make ahead of time!” \u2014Vanessa Yelavich\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“If you have an instant pot and like yogurt, try this! I poured boiling water in the pot and let it sit for a minute before starting recipe and will be sure to do this next time. I whisked yogurt before and after process, it came out very smooth. Also, I used 1\/2 gallon of milk, and Trader Joe\u2019s plain Greek yogurt as starter.” \u2014seashellcheryl\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“I used to make this when the kids were small. It is wonderful, still easy to make, and brings back wonderful memories!” — Nanax5\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“I am thrilled to be the first one to review and photograph this wonderful recipe. What a treat it was to wake up, turn on the oven, pop in this coffee cake, and then have a house smelling like cinnamon. This is very easy to mix together the night before, and you won’t be disappointed that you took the time to do it. This cake rose beautifully, the texture was very light and moist, and the taste was crazy good. The next time that I make this, I’m going to add some chopped apples just for a variation. Maridele, thanks for introducing me to your fabulous coffee cake recipe; going into my Favorites folder.” \u2014lutzflcat\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
