I had some issues with my biscuits but I don't think that was the fault of the recipe. I will try again with another brand. These went directly to the freezer for lunchbox's and they worked out great. I just threw it in the lunchbox in the a.m. and by lunchtime they were thawed and ready to eat. I will definitely play with these in the future.

Delicious! I only had a small can of buttermilk biscuits so I decided to make a mini version of this recipe and followed the directions exactly. I also sprinkled the tops with a little bit of sugar before baking. My husband loves PB&J and he went crazy over these bite size pockets. It's just the two of us and there was no leftovers! What a great change from boring sandwiches. Thank you for sharing this great recipe!

my first batch didn't turn out too well. I put too much jelly and didn't crimp enough. I also added the cinnamon sugar on the 2nd batch. my son is taking them to rugby tomorrow. I think they will be a big hit. Definitely need to put in big letters MAKE SURE TO CRIMP ON BOTH SIDES. :)

Great quick breakfast or snack! I used strawberry jam and it was terrific. I used a fork to crimp the edges, flipped them over, and crimped again and none of them popped open. I sprinkled a little cinnamon/sugar on top before baking and enjoyed these for breakfast - thanks for sharing the recipe!

My 4 year old loved these! We made them with just peanut butter since she isn't big on jelly. I did offer honey as a dipping sauce, which she really liked! Some of these popped open when cooking, but it wasn't that big of a deal.
