Description

Ingredients

• 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• ¾ tsp salt
• 4 tbsp butter, melted (divided) [See Note]
• 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
• 4 eggs scrambled
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• ⅔ cup milk
• Melted butter

Directions

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F
• In a large 12-inch cast iron skillet, crumble the sausage and sautee until browned through.
• Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl add the flour, baking powder, and salt.
• When the sausage is browned, drain well and then add it to the flour mixture and stir to combine until the sausage is fully coated.
• Drain any abundance of oil from the pan and then add the beaten eggs into the pan and cook to a soft scramble. Add the scrambled eggs to the flour mixture and stir to combine.
• Next, add the cheese and milk. With a spoon, stir the mixture until all the flour is incorporated and a slightly sticky dough forms. With a spoon, floured hands or an ice cream scoop, drop biscuits into the buttered skillet or sheet pan.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes or until biscuits are lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Brush the tops of the hot biscuits with melted butter. Serve warm.
