Confetti Biscuit Ring
A savory, cheesy biscuit ring with bacon, green pepper, and onion, perfect for brunch or parties, offering a delightful combination of flavors and textures.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Quarter the biscuits and place them in a large bowl.
- Coat the biscuit pieces with melted butter.
- Add crumbled bacon, minced green pepper, minced onion, and Parmesan cheese to the biscuit mixture and toss lightly to combine.
- Pat the mixture into a lightly greased Bundt pan.
- Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown.
Tips & Substitutions
For a twist, try adding diced bell peppers or jalapeños for extra flavor. If you prefer a lighter version, substitute turkey bacon for the crumbled bacon. You can also use a blend of cheeses like cheddar or mozzarella instead of Parmesan. Make sure to grease the Bundt pan well to prevent sticking and ensure an even bake.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the Confetti Biscuit Ring warm as a delightful breakfast or brunch dish. It pairs well with a fresh fruit salad or a light yogurt dip. For a complete meal, consider serving it alongside my mother’s baked beans or a side of scrambled eggs for a hearty start to the day.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the biscuit ring in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until warmed through. You can also microwave individual pieces for a quick snack.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this recipe ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the mixture and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking. Just remember to bring it to room temperature before placing it in the oven to ensure even cooking.
What can I use instead of biscuits?
If you don't have canned biscuits, you can make your own dough using flour, baking powder, butter, and milk. Alternatively, puff pastry can be used for a flakier texture, though it will result in a different flavor profile.
How can I make this dish vegetarian?
To make a vegetarian version, simply omit the bacon and use additional vegetables like mushrooms or zucchini. Nutritional yeast can be added for a cheesy flavor without dairy, and you can still enjoy a delicious and satisfying biscuit ring.
