Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces refrigerated biscuit dough (e.g., Pillsbury Grands!)
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 as needed non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon or spatula, until fully browned and no longer pink. Drain excess grease if needed.
Stir in ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix well and let the mixture simmer for about 2-3 minutes until it's thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.
Separate the biscuit dough into 8 individual pieces. Flatten each piece with your hands or a rolling pin to make them large enough to press into the muffin tin cavities, creating a cup shape.
Carefully press each flattened biscuit into a prepared muffin tin cup, ensuring the dough covers the bottom and sides of each cavity.
Fill each biscuit cup with a scoop of the sloppy Joe mixture, evenly dividing it among all 8 cups.
Top each filled biscuit cup with a generous sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuit dough is golden brown and cooked through.
Let the Sloppy Joe Biscuit Cups cool for 2-3 minutes in the tin before carefully removing them with a spoon or small spatula.
Serve warm and enjoy! These can be garnished with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
