Handy Sausage Biscuits Recipes

SAUSAGE-CHEDDAR BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until well-browned, breaking it up into small pieces. Let cool completely, either on the counter or in the freezer.
• Mix together the butter and sour cream in a stand mixer. Mix in the flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing until fully combined. Add the sausage and cheddar, and mix until well incorporated.
• Drop heaping spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake until lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes.

SAUSAGE SAGE BISCUITS

Steps:

• Put the sausage in a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet. (If it's in links, squeeze it into the pan, and discard the casing.) Turn the heat to medium and cook, stirring and breaking the sausage into tiny bits, until browned and cooked through, about 8 minutes. If the sausage sticks to the pan, add 1/2 teaspoon neutral oil. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature. You should have a scant 2 cups cooked sausage bits.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and pepper.
• Add the butter and toss to coat with the dry ingredients. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, press and cut in the butter until coarse crumbs form with some peanut-size pieces remaining. Toss in the chopped sage and sausage until evenly coated. Add the buttermilk and mix with a fork until no dry bits remain and mixture forms a mass.
• Lightly flour a work surface and turn the dough out onto it. With lightly floured hands or rolling pin, pat or roll the dough into an 8-by-10-inch rectangle (about 1/2-inch thick). Using a sharp knife or bench scraper, cut the dough into 2-inch squares. Put on the prepared sheet, spacing 1 inch apart.
• If the dough has softened, refrigerate or freeze until stiff. Brush the tops of the dough squares with butter and press a sage leaf onto each. Grind pepper on top.
• Bake until well risen, and the edges are just beginning to brown, about 20 to 25 minutes.
• Cool on the pan on a rack for 5 minutes. Serve warm or room temperature, wrapped in a napkin to eat out of hand.

BEST SAUSAGE GRAVY AND BISCUITS

Steps:

• Heat sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, crumbling with a spoon and stirring often, until browned and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add butter to skillet and melt. Sprinkle flour evenly over skillet and stir for 1 minute. Whisk in 2 1/2 cups milk and scrape up any bits off the bottom of the skillet. Bring mixture to a simmer.
• Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring often, until thickened, about 10 minutes. If mixture becomes too thick, thin slightly by adding more milk or water. Season with hot sauce, pepper, and salt; cook for 1 more minute.
• Serve immediately over hot biscuits.

SAUSAGE CHEESE BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Roll out each biscuit into a 5-in. circle; place each in an ungreased muffin cup. Cut sausages into fourths; brown in a skillet. Drain. Divide sausages among cups., In a small bowl, combine eggs, cheese and onions; spoon into cups. Bake until browned, 13-15 minutes.

Gradually add milk; cook until mixture comes to a boil and thickens, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Split biscuits in half. Place 2 halves on each of 8 plates; top with about 1/3 cup gravy.

EASY SAUSAGE BISCUIT BITES

• Bake in the preheated oven until biscuits are browned, 18 to 20 minutes.
