Air Fryer Sausage Biscuits

Air Fryer Sausage Biscuits are so quick and easy to make in the air fryer. Filled with crispy breakfast sausage, scrambled eggs and cheese. A great hand- held breakfast that is filling and delicious.

They can even be made in advance and reheated for a grab and go meal that is great for busy mornings or prep your ingredients ahead, assemble and bake in just 5 minutes in the air fryer. My family also loves these quick and easy Air Fryer Maple Donut Holes and these irresistible Air Fryer Churro Apple Pie Bombs for a sweet breakfast treat.

    1. My husband LOVED these!! I added the cheese to the scrambled eggs (easier to put in the biscuit). I also had to flip & cook an additional 2 minutes to get both sides GBD (golden brown delicious)
      Thank you for sharing such an awesome recipe!!

      1. Hi Stacey,
        Yes you can freeze them. Freeze them on a sheet pan for about 1 – 2 hours and then place in a freezer bag up to 3 months. Freezing them on the sheet pan will let you take them out one at a time. You can also wrap individually with plastic wrap before placing in the freezer bag.

      1. Hi Rose,
        I have updated the recipe card with the oven instructions. Cook on a parchment lined or greased baking sheet at 375° for 15-17 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown.
