Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet and Mix-ins
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup cooked sausage, crumbled
- 1/4 cup milk
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it is at the perfect temperature for baking the biscuits evenly and achieving a golden crust.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. This creates the base for your biscuit dough.
- Add Butter, Cheese, and Sausage: Incorporate the softened butter, shredded cheddar cheese, and cooked crumbled sausage into the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until the mixture is evenly combined with a crumbly texture.
- Stir in Milk: Gradually add the milk to the mixture and stir until a cohesive dough forms that holds together but remains soft.
- Shape the Biscuits: Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them evenly to allow room for expansion during baking.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the biscuits are puffed and golden brown on top.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving to allow flavors to set and to avoid burning your mouth.
Notes
- Use cooked sausage that is fully browned and crumbled for best flavor and texture.
- Softened butter should be at room temperature to mix evenly into the dough.
- These biscuits are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- For a spicy twist, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chopped jalapeños to the dough.
- Ensure not to overmix the dough to keep the biscuits tender and flaky.
