Ingredients

Scale

To create these scrumptious Loaded Biscuit Breakfast Treats, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup cooked sausage, crumbled
  • 4 large eggs, scrambled
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preparing Loaded Biscuit Breakfast Treats is simple and can be done in just a few steps. Follow these instructions to create a delightful breakfast experience:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Biscuit Dough:
    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
    • Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
    • Gradually add the buttermilk, stirring until the dough begins to come together. Be careful not to overmix.
  3. Roll Out the Dough:
    • Transfer the dough to a floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it forms a cohesive ball.
    • Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/2 inch.
  4. Cut and Fill the Biscuits:
    • Use a round biscuit cutter (about 3 inches in diameter) to cut out circles from the dough.
    • Place a spoonful of scrambled eggs, crumbled sausage, and shredded cheese onto each circle.
    • Fold the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch to seal, forming a small pouch.
  5. Bake:
    • Place the filled biscuits seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown.
  6. Serve:
    • Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
