Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 pounds Ground beef
- 0.33 cups Barbecue sauce
- 8 count Refrigerated biscuit dough
- 0.33 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 count Green onion, sliced (optional)
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.
Stir the barbecue sauce into the cooked ground beef. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until warmed through. Remove from heat and set aside.
Lightly spray a standard-size muffin tin with cooking spray.
Separate the biscuit dough into individual biscuits. Press each biscuit into a flat circle and gently press it into the bottom and up the sides of each muffin cup, forming a cup shape.
Spoon the barbecue beef mixture evenly into each biscuit cup, filling them almost to the top.
Sprinkle a small amount of shredded cheddar cheese over the top of each muffin.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the biscuit dough are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Use a butter knife to carefully lift each muffin out of the tin.
Garnish with sliced green onion, if desired, and serve warm.
