Tips & Substitutions
For a variation, try adding shredded cheese or sautéed vegetables like bell peppers to the filling. You can also substitute the ham with turkey or a plant-based alternative for a vegetarian twist. To ensure even cooking, make sure the biscuits are uniform in size and thickness. If you prefer a crispier texture, brush the tops with melted butter before baking.
Serving Suggestions
These biscuit wraps are perfect for breakfast or a quick snack. Serve them alongside Smashed Tators or Fresh Garden Corn for a hearty meal. For a complete dinner, pair them with Wonderful Corn Casserole and a fresh salad. They also make great game day appetizers or picnic food, enjoyed with your favorite dipping sauces.
