Ingredients
Biscuit Dough
- 1 pound breakfast sausage adds savory depth and hearty texture
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour creates a perfect flaky biscuit base
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar balances savory flavors
- 1 tablespoon baking powder helps biscuits rise
- 1.75-2 cups buttermilk keeps dough moist
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese adds melty goodness
Butter Layer
- 0.5 cups salted butter melted
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and prepare a 9x9-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Cook the breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat, stirring for about 8-10 minutes until no pink remains. Drain off excess grease.
- In a bowl, mix together flour, sugar, and baking powder. Gradually add buttermilk until a sticky batter forms, then fold in cheese and cooked sausage.
- Pour melted butter into the baking dish, spreading it evenly. Spoon biscuit dough on top, spreading it to cover the butter.
- Cut the dough into 9 equal squares using a sharp knife.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown, rotating halfway through for even baking.
- Remove from oven and let cool in the pan for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For best results, don't rush the sausage cooking and ensure butter is not too hot when mixing with dough.
