Had 1 serving of sausage gravy left so just made a plain one. Then added a scrambled egg in a mug and your biscuit in a mug. Tasted great, had a good hardly breakfast in just a few minutes. Thumbs up
Well DoNE!! I love your site. the recipes are a GREAT jumping of point for me. I have found that I can Double your mug recipes and bake them in one of our cereal bowls. In my micro I cook them for 2min15 sec and then let them sit for about 2 more minutes for the bakes. Works very well for two of us, and I don’t have to do the recipe twice!

Turned out great, just perfect for one biscuit, I used gluten free flour and it still turned out great. Thank you so much.
I’m on a medical diet called LID. I can’t even say how happy I am to find this site. Most of all your mug ideas can quickly be adapted to my diet so I can eat real food. Last time I was on this diet I ate nothing but fruit and veg I had no idea how to eat. Ur an amazing blessing I thank you
This is my second ever mug meal recipe. I accidentally added 1 TABLESPOON of oregano 😭 instead of the 2 TEASPOONS required. Although this came out VERY VERY HERBY I can tell that when I add the correct measurements it will be fantastic. I’m going to try to add sausage and make it a breakfast biscuit!
Thank you for describing the mug size! Most “mug” recipes I find do not! can’t wait to try this – I enjoy your blog! Thanks again
Thanks for sharing, Love biscuits but don’t like to bake a lot (8) You have made my day.Now to try them.
I used a 4′ silicone mold and its like a cathead biscuit (we love here in the south).I also used buttermilk powder with water and it worked deliciously! Thank you!
Delicious! Made with 4 tablespoons milk to make a thinner batter, a zesty citrus herb blend and blue cheese. Fabulous
I had leftover sausage grave to use so I doubled this recipe and left out the cheese and herbs. I made it in a bowl. Turned out great!
