Ingredients
The following ingredients have 24 Servings
- 3 cups self-rising flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 cup shortening
- 1 (16-ounce) package breakfast sausage (, browned and drained)
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)
Instruction
- Preheat oven to 475º F. Whisk together flour and baking powder in a large bowl. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender or using a fork until the flour mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in sausage, cheddar cheese, buttermilk and hot sauce until well combined. The dough will be moist and shouldn't have any visibly dry flour remaining in the mixture.
- Scoop biscuit bites using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop and place onto rimmed baking sheets. Place into the oven and bake until cooked through and lightly browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.
