Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 6 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 Eggs
- 1 pound Ground breakfast sausage
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Chopped green onions
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the ground breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess fat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.
Cut the butter into small cubes and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs until combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely or serving warm.
Slice and serve with butter or enjoy on its own as a tasty breakfast or brunch centerpiece!
