20 Minutes, 10 Servings

Let's talk about mornings during menopause. If you're anything like many of my clients, some days you wake up ready to conquer the world, and other days... well, let's just say getting out of bed feels like enough of an accomplishment. That's the beauty of these Savory Breakfast Biscuits. They work with you no matter what kind of morning you're having.

Why This Recipe Works

These biscuits are ready in just 20 minutes from start to finish. That means even on those mornings when brain fog has you forgetting why you walked into the kitchen, you can still pull together a satisfying breakfast without spending half your morning cooking.

The combination of pork sausage, red bell peppers, and cheddar cheese creates a savory flavor profile that many find more appealing than sweet breakfast options, especially during menopause when taste preferences can shift. Plus, with 8 grams of protein per biscuit, they provide lasting satisfaction to fuel your morning activities.

Meal Prep Magic

Here's where these biscuits really shine, they're incredibly freezer friendly. Batch bake on a Sunday afternoon, and you've got grab-and-go breakfasts for weeks. Store them in the fridge for up to three days or freeze them for up to two months.

On those mornings when you need something quick - whether you're rushing to an appointment, dealing with a restless night's sleep, or just want something easy - simply grab a biscuit and go. No thinking required.

Customize Your Preferences

One of my favorite aspects of this recipe is how adaptable it is. Menopause affects everyone differently, and what works for your body might not work for someone else's. These biscuits embrace that reality:

• Spice lovers: Add chili flakes or extra garlic for more flavor depth
• Flour preferences: Swap the almond flour for gluten-free flour or brown rice flour
• Vegetable variations: The red bell peppers add a touch of sweetness, but you could experiment with other vegetables you enjoy

The recipe is a template that you can make your own based on what sounds good to you right now, and that might change from week to week, which is perfectly okay.

Simple Ingredients, Flavorful Results

With just 10 ingredients, most of which you might already have in your kitchen, these biscuits prove that simple doesn't mean boring. The fresh thyme adds an herbal note that elevates the whole dish, while the cheddar cheese (divided between the dough and the topping) ensures every bite has that melty, savory goodness.

The almond flour base keeps the biscuits tender without being heavy, and the combination of sausage and peppers cooked together before adding to the dough means the flavors have time to meld beautifully.

Perfect for Your Lifestyle

Whether you're working from home, heading to an office, meeting friends for a morning walk, or simply want to enjoy a peaceful breakfast at your own pace, these biscuits fit into your life. They're equally delicious warm from the oven or at room temperature after being stored.

Many of my clients appreciate having options that don't require them to think too hard in the morning. When you're navigating the changes that come with menopause having reliable, easy recipes in your rotation can make a real difference in how you start your day.

The Bottom Line

These Savory Breakfast Biscuits aren't trying to be anything other than what they are: a tasty, convenient breakfast option that you can make ahead and enjoy throughout the week. They're protein-rich, customizable, and easy to prepare. All things that matter when you're looking for recipes that actually work for your real life.
