Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

  2. In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat, flipping occasionally, until it becomes crispy (around 10 minutes).

  3. While the bacon is cooking, mix together the eggs and milk in a bowl. Pour the mixture into a skillet over medium heat, stirring and cooking until the eggs are scrambled and set (approximately 5 minutes). Season with salt and pepper.

  4. Place the cooked bacon on paper towels to drain excess grease. Crumble the bacon into small pieces and combine it with the scrambled eggs. Add American cheese.

  5. Take one biscuit and flatten it. Fill it with 2 tablespoons of the bacon and egg mixture. Place it on an ungreased cookie sheet. Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon of maple syrup over the top. Flatten another biscuit and place it on top of the filling. Pinch the edges together to secure the filling. Repeat this process with the remaining biscuits, egg mixture, and maple syrup.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits turn golden brown (approximately 8 minutes).
