Step by Step Instructions (With Pictures)
Step 1: Preheat Oven
Set oven temperature to 375 degrees and make sure the rack is in the middle of the oven.
Step 2: Cook Breakfast Sausage
Cook the breakfast sausage in a large skillet. If you purchased individual sausage links, you will want to squeeze the sausage mixture out of the link before you cook it. Discard the empty link casing when finished.
Step 3: Drain Grease
Once sausage is browned, drain grease from skillet.
Step 4: Add Eggs to Sausage and Scramble
Whisk your eggs in a separate bowl and pour them over the cooked sausage.
Scramble the mixture in the skillet until the eggs aren’t runny (1-2 minutes).
Step 5: Flatten Each Biscuit
Lightly dust flour over the surface you are rolling out the biscuits on. Dust the rolling pin (or a cleaned wine bottle/olive oil bottle etc) with flour and toss a little on the biscuits to prevent them from sticking.
Step 6: Add Mixture to Biscuits
Place a pinch of cheese and a couple of spoonfuls of your sausage and egg mixture to the middle of your biscuit. Wrap the longest sides toward the middle of your mixture and fold the ends up and over.
Place seam-side down on an ungreased cookie sheet or parchment paper.
Step 7: Bake!
Bake for 13-15 minutes, rotating your pan halfway through until the tops are golden brown.
