Although the idea of cookies for breakfast may seem counter-intuitive, these [savory biscuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goats-cheese-and-rosemary) actually serve as a healthy morning meal. Unlike traditional cookies, the cheesy breakfast biscuits are made with savory ingredients such as bacon and eggs. The recipe involves making a basic cookie dough and then adding bacon bits that have been cooked in maple syrup. The recipe then calls for a combination of cheddar cheese and Greek yogurt, which gives the cookies a light and fluffy texture. Finally the biscuits are topped with a fried egg. The end result is a savory cookie that serves as a [portable breakfast option](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doublestack-egg-sandwich). The cheesy biscuits are perfect for those who are looking for an excuse to eat cookies for breakfast. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 45% | Activity: 61% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Savory Breakfast Dishes:** Introduce savory alternatives to traditional sweet breakfast foods. - **Healthy Morning Meal:** Transform traditional breakfast foods into a healthier version using nutritious ingredients. - **Portable Breakfast Foods:** Create convenient and on-the-go breakfast options for busy consumers. ### Where This Applies - **Food and Beverage:** Innovate and provide alternative breakfast options within the food and beverage industry. - **Health and Wellness:** Promote and market healthier breakfast choices, including lower sugar and higher protein options. - **Convenience Stores:** Partner with food companies to create more accessible breakfast options on the go. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Crispy Breakfast Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bentons-pancake-cookie-thins.md) - [Gluten-Free Breakfast Biscuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glutenfree-breakfast-biscuits.md) - [Breakfast-Flavored Dog Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheesy-over-easy-dog-treats.md) - [Incredibly Nutritious Breakfast Biscuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nutritious-breakfast-biscuits.md) - [Savory Breakfast Cups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/incredifulls.md) - [Heat-and-Eat Breakfast Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frozen-breakfast-sandwich.md) - [Greek-Inspired Breakfast Biscuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fruit-filled-breakfast-biscuits.md) - [Homestyle Biscuit Breakfast Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-bacon-biscuit-sandwich.md) - [Pancake-Based Breakfast Taco](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bacon-egg-and-cheese-pancake-tacos.md)
