Breakfast Biscuits Recipe

Sunny Breakfast Biscuits

Ingredients:
- 1 package biscuits
- Marmalade (orange or any other flavor)

Directions:1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

2. Open up the tube of biscuits and separate them.  Place biscuits on an ungreased cookie sheet. Form each biscuit into a threeinch circle and make them into a sun shape by using a knife to carve the sun's rays into each biscuit.

3. Use your thumb to press a hole into the middle of each biscuit. (The little ones would love to help with this part!)

4. Take 1/2 teaspoon of the marmalade and drop it into the hole you made in each biscuit. (They can help here, too!)

5. Place the biscuits in the oven and bake for 6-8 minutes, or until they turn are golden brown. The Sunny Biscuits are best served warm.
