Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese 113g
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil 15 ml
- 1/2 teaspoon dried sage
- 1 cup red bell pepper diced (71g)
- 6 large eggs beaten
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 16 oz ground chicken sausage or pork sausage
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups all-purpose flour 250g
- 1/2 cup yellow onion diced (71g)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a 13x18 inch baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
- Warm the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then add the diced onion and bell pepper, sautéing them for about five minutes until softened.
- Shift the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the ground sausage. Cook, breaking it into fine crumbles, until fully browned and cooked through.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, sage, and thyme.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk the eggs thoroughly. Mix in the shredded cheddar cheese, followed by the cooked sausage and vegetable mixture.
- Form a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Stir together until fully incorporated; the dough will have a wet, thick consistency.
- Portion the dough into 12 equal mounds, using approximately 1/3 cup for each, and place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 10 to 14 minutes, or until the biscuits are firm and just cooked through.
