Cheesy Sausage Biscuits

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• ½ tsp baking soda
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ cup cold butter, cubed
• ¾ cup buttermilk
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• ½ lb breakfast sausage (cooked and crumbled)
• 1 egg (optional, for an egg wash)

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cook Sausage: Brown the breakfast sausage in a skillet, breaking it into crumbles. Drain excess grease and set aside.
3. Make Biscuit Dough: In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
4. Incorporate Butter: Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
5. Add Buttermilk & Cheese: Pour in buttermilk and mix until just combined. Fold in cheddar cheese.
6. Roll & Cut Biscuits: Roll dough to about ½-inch thickness and use a round cutter to make biscuits.
7. Assemble: Place a layer of cooked sausage between two biscuit rounds, pressing slightly.
8. Bake: Brush tops with a beaten egg for a golden finish. Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown.
9. Serve: Enjoy warm, optionally with a drizzle of honey or hot sauce!
