Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350℉. Grease a 10 inch bundt pan with 2 tablespoons of the melted butter. Set aside.
  2. Cook the sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat, until it's no longer pink, breaking it up as you go along. Stir in pizza sauce then season with salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. Remove from heat and cool for about 5 minutes.
  3. In a medium size bowl combine the mozzarella cheese with the emmental cheese.
  4. Top each biscuit with a tsp of pesto, 1 or 2 teaspoons of the sausage mixture, then 1 tbsp of cheese. Stack four biscuits on top of each other, press gently. Turn the stack on its side, and place in the prepared bundt pan. Repeat with the remaining biscuits, arranging biscuit stacks in pan to create a ring. You should still have some leftover cheese. Drizzle the ring with the remaining 2 tbsp melted butter.
  5. Bake for 30 minutes. Sprinkle the bread with the remaining cheese and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean and the top is golden brown and cheese is melted.
  6. Cool the bread in the pan for 10 minutes. Remove bread from pan and serve warm.

Notes

  • * Emmental cheese is a medium-hard Swiss cheese and it has a savory but mild taste. Feel free to substitute this with regular Swiss cheese or additional Mozzarella cheese.
  • If you have extra sausage mixture left over, don't throw it out! Make scrambled eggs with it, take a couple eggs and mix with the sausage mixture, then cook, it'll make for a hearty and delicious breakfast.
  • You could also use the Pillsbury Grands biscuits, those come 8 in a pack and they're a bit bigger, they should both work. I used the country biscuits here and they come 10 in a pack.
