Instructions

  1. In a medium size skillet cook the sausage and the jalapeño together until the sausage is cooked through and the jalapeño is softened.
  2. Preheat the oven to 425℉ and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking sheet.
  3. In a large mixing bowl add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and stir with a fork to combine.
  4. Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Using a pastry blender, forks, or a food processor, cut the butter into the flour until there are no pieces bigger than a pea.
  5. Add in the cooked sausage, jalapeño, and the cheese. Stir to combine.
  6. Pour in the buttermilk and stir until mixed.
  7. Using a large spoon scoop the batter and place on the baking sheet. Leaving the batter not neatly rounded gives a more textured appearance to the biscuits when baked. Batter will make about 8 large biscuits.
  8. Bake for about 15-16 minutes until the biscuits are baked through. Allow to cool several minutes then remove from the pan and continue to cool on a wire cooling rack.

Notes

  • Refrigerator: Store these breakfast drop biscuits in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Remove from the fridge 30 minutes before serving to serve at room temperature, or reheat slightly in a microwave if desired.
  • Freezer: Store in a sealed freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
