Instructions
Let’s dive into the steps to create these irresistible breakfast biscuits:
Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F. This ensures the biscuits bake evenly and achieve that perfect golden-brown finish.
Cook the Sausage and Eggs
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked. Remove from the pan and set aside. In the same pan, scramble the eggs until fluffy, then mix in the cooked sausage.
Prepare the Biscuit Dough
Flatten each biscuit dough round slightly, creating a small disk. This gives you enough space to stuff them with all that delicious filling.
Fill and Seal
Spoon a small amount of the sausage and egg mixture onto each biscuit round, then sprinkle with cheese. Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal, forming a stuffed ball.
Bake Until Golden
Place the stuffed biscuits seam-side down on a greased baking sheet. Brush with melted butter for extra richness. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and flaky.
Serve and Enjoy
Let the biscuits cool for a couple of minutes before serving. Enjoy them warm with your favorite dipping sauce or a drizzle of honey for a sweet-savory twist!
