Ingredients & Tools You'll Need

Let’s talk about what you need to make this Breakfast Bundt Cake happen. First off, you’ll want to grab 1-2 cans of biscuits. Cubing them into eighths gives you those delightful fluffy bits that create the cake’s structure.

Then, you’ll need a dozen eggs, some cooked sausage, and diced bacon. I go heavy on the cheese here, so don’t skimp on that shredded cheddar!

For the sausage gravy, you’ll need some breakfast sausage, flour, milk, and seasoning. It’s what gives the bundt cake that rich, savory flavor we all crave. And of course, don’t forget a Bundt pan – it’s the star of the show!

Grease it well so the cake slides right out when it's done.

How To Make It

Getting this Breakfast Bundt Cake ready is all about mixing and pouring. You’ll be amazed at how simple it is. First, we’ll prep our ingredients, then it’s time to cook!

Let’s dive into the steps.

A hand holds a bundt pan filled with a mixture of eggs, cheese, sausage, and biscuit dough. A pink spatula with an illustrated character stirs the mixture. The pan rests on a wooden surface.

Preparation

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F. While that’s heating up, grab a large mixing bowl and toss in your cubed biscuits, beaten eggs, all-purpose seasoning, cooked sausage, diced bacon, and shredded cheddar. Give everything a good mix.

You want to make sure all those delicious ingredients are well combined.

Now, here’s where it gets fun. Once everything is mixed up, you’ll pour it into your greased Bundt pan. Before you pop it in the oven, sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top.

This adds that gooey, melty cheese layer that everyone loves.

Cooking

Now, slide that pan into the preheated oven and let the magic happen. In about 30 minutes, you’re going to want to start checking for doneness. You’re looking for a beautiful golden color and a puffed-up appearance.

The smell? Oh boy, it’s going to fill your kitchen with the most comforting aroma.

You can do the toothpick test to make sure it’s fully cooked; just poke it in the center and if it comes out clean, you’re golden. Once it’s ready, let it cool for a few minutes before inverting it onto a plate. This is when you’ll see that gorgeous Bundt shape, and your heart will skip a beat.

Serving & Variations

When it comes to serving, this Breakfast Bundt Cake is a crowd favorite. You can slice it up and serve it warm, maybe with a side of fresh fruit or a light salad to balance things out. If you’re feeling adventurous, try drizzling a bit of maple syrup over the top for a sweet and savory combo that’s out of this world.

A common consensus among home cooks is that adding some sautéed veggies like bell peppers or spinach into the mix can elevate this dish even further.

And if you have leftovers, just store them in the fridge – it reheats beautifully in the microwave.
