Ingredients

  • 6 oz breakfast sausage links
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup butter cut into cubes
  • 4 oz shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat liner.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausages and cook until browned and cooked through. Remove to a cutting board and slice.

  • In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
    2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Add the butter and using a pastry cutter or a fork, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
    1/3 cup butter
  • Stir the cheese and the sliced sausage into the flour mixture. Pour in the milk and stir just until it starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl.

  • Pour the mixture out onto a work surface dusted with flour. Knead just until it comes together - the dough will be sticky. Pat into a rectangle about 10x6 inches.
  • Cut into 6 rectangles. Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove from the oven and brush with the melted butter. Serve warm.

Notes

These can be made ahead of time and heated up for breakfast. I like to reheat in the air fryer, but the microwave also works.
