Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 c all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1 c buttermilk or soured milk (see notes)
  • 8 tbsp butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1/2 lb sausage
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 c shredded cheese see notes

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Grease a large baking sheet.
  2. Brown and drain sausage, making sure the sausage is finely crumbled. Add in eggs, stirring to scramble them in the pan. Salt and pepper to taste. Cook through; make sure they are mixed in with the sausage. Let cool slightly.
  3. Stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, stir together the buttermilk and butter (butter will form small clumps). Add the buttermilk mixture and the shredded cheese to the flour mixture; stir until just incorporated.
  4. Fold the sausage-egg scramble into the biscuit dough, just until incorporated.
  5. Drop dough in mounds onto the baking sheet. Bake 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.

Notes

For the buttermilk, you can substitute "soured" milk, by measuring a tablespoon of either lemon juice or vinegar into a measuring cup, then filling it up to one cup with milk.
For the cheese, I like to use a Mexican blend that I get at our local grocery store. Cheddar would also work well, but just about any cheese would be tasty!
These biscuits keep in the fridge for a couple days, and they freeze really well! Just pull out and microwave!
