Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, diced)
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 1 pound Breakfast sausage (ground)
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add the cold diced butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to incorporate the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the milk, stirring with a fork until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to about 1/2-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out biscuit rounds.
In a skillet, cook the ground sausage over medium heat until fully browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease and let the sausage cool slightly.
Place a small amount of cooked sausage and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese in the center of half the biscuit rounds. Top each with another biscuit round and gently press the edges to seal.
Arrange the stuffed biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.
Allow to cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy!
