Biscuit and Sausage Ingredients

Method

Biscuit and Sausage Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sausage

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned and fully cooked. Season with black pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Biscuit Dough

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the milk until just combined.

  3. 3

    Shape the Biscuits

    Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently just until it comes together. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Cut out biscuits using a round cutter.

  4. 4

    Bake the Biscuits

    Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C). Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Sausage Biscuit

    Slice each biscuit in half, place a sausage patty inside, and serve warm.
