I'm posting this here because I'm in a hurry to get it down before I forget what I did. I have to reinvent this recipe every time I make it because I always forget to write it down!
This is a breakfast that is a favorite for my kids. My mom makes them all the time, and the original recipe calls for Bisquick, which I never have on hand. I just use my whole wheat flour and add the leavening. It's all very easy to throw together, and it makes enough to put some in the freezer to reheat later. I thought I'd try it this morning and see if our little temperamental oven would behave. It did, and my children were thrilled with the surprise.
Sausage Cheese Biscuits
4 cups whole wheat flour
4 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. salt
2 lbs. sausage (uncooked)
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese
2 1/2 cups milk
Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together in large bowl. Add in sausage, cheese and milk and mix with hands till well blended. Work into balls (just big enough to cup in your palms, smaller than a tennis ball, but bigger than a golf ball). Flatten a little and place on baking sheets. You could also pat this out and cut it, just like regular biscuits. Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes or until browned.
Makes 30 biscuits.
Enjoy!

Hi! We tried these biscuits this morning and I had a question. Do you cook the sausage at all before you put them in the oven? I couldn't tell if the sausage was cooked well enough this morning. We ended up cooking the biscuits for 40 minutes. :/ When you cook them...if the sausage is uncooked when you put it in the mixture....is it still slightly pink when the biscuits come out and if so is that safe? Just making sure I'm not doing something wrong!
PS: They are amazing!!!! Yummers!
Glad you enjoyed them! Sorry if I wasn't clear in my post. But no, I don't cook the sausage at all before forming the biscuits. In my quirky oven, it's 20-25 minutes, tops. Yours may be different?
Hope that helps!
