Cheesy Sausage Biscuits

Cheesy Sausage Biscuits

• • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 6 tablespoons cold butter

  • 1 egg, lightly beaten

  • 2/3 - 3/4 cup milk

  • 1/2 cup cubed white cheddar cheese

  • 2/3 cup cooked, crumbled sausage

Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Using a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the egg with a fork, until the dough is slightly moistened. Gradually add the milk, stirring just until the dough comes together into a sticky dough. Fold in the cheese and sausage. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let the dough rest on the counter for about 20 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 450. Spray a muffin tin (makes 8 large biscuits) with nonstick spray and spoon the dough into the muffin tin, loosely mounding it in each cup. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown on top. Remove from the pan and eat warm.
