The most amazing breakfast biscuits ever! Loaded with fresh crumbled sausage chunks, sharp cheddar cheese and green onions. You will want this for breakfast every single morning!

So I think I had these biscuits every single day for breakfast this week.

But don’t judge me too hard.

Because these are totally classified as breakfast biscuits.

Why? Well, these bad boys are loaded with extra-sharp cheddar cheese, green onions and of course, Jimmy Dean Premium Pork Sausage with it’s perfect savory blend of signature seasonings.

See, I told you. They are completely acceptable (and equally irresistible) as a savory breakfast item.

Just remember to use frozen butter, and to throw your biscuits into the freezer for 15 minutes prior to baking. This helps the biscuits rise high, making them unbelievably flaky.

Serve with butter, a fried egg, or just as is. You won’t be sorry.

Just breathe in between bites. My food stylists and I each had one biscuit in 0.75 seconds without speaking a word to one another.

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat; set aside.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and cook until browned, about 5-8 minutes, making sure to crumble the sausage as it cooks. Drain excess fat; transfer sausage to a paper towel-lined plate.
• In a large bowl, combine sausage, flour, cheese, green onion, baking powder, salt, baking soda and pepper.
• Grate butter using the large holes of a box grater. Stir into the flour mixture.
• In a small bowl, whisk together buttermilk and heavy whipping cream.
• Add buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture and stir using a rubber spatula until a soft dough forms. Working on a lightly floured surface, knead the dough 3-4 times until it comes together. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Using a sharp knife, cut out 12 squares. Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet; place in the freezer for 15 minutes.
• Remove biscuits from freezer. Place into oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Serve warm.
