Nothing will put a little “Spring” in your step like these easy Sausage Cheddar Biscuits. Perfect for a grab and go breakfast and fancy enough to add to your Easter Dinner menu.

Nothing like 75 degree weather to make you realize, spring is here! Ready or not! I’m stoked. Longer days, flip flops, walks on the greenway, and the celebration of Easter are all things that I look forward to during the cold (or what is usually cold) winter.

My herb garden is taking off and it’s gottenme in the mood to make something savory to add to the Easter menu. Usually, we servefreeze & bake yeast rolls with our meal. But, I figured it’s time to dust off my apron and try making my own bread for the event.

I have a basic biscuit recipe that I use which never fails. But since we’re talking biscuits for a holiday, I thought I could take things up a few notches by adding some special ingredients. Like sausage. And cheese (obviously). And chives from the garden. These biscuits are going to be great with our main dinner, but who’s to say we can’t grab a few and serve them to family during the egg hunt?

You’ll love how easy these are to make! And your whole family is going to love how they taste! Try slicing them open and sandwiching in a fried egg for a satisfying breakfast sandwich! I know. I’m drooling too.

Sausage Cheddar Biscuits Recipe

To get started, first brown a pound of breakfast sausage. I used Odom’s Tennessee Pride® Country Sausage in this recipe, which I was able to buy at Walmart. Once cooked through, drain and set aside. You’ll also want to preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Mix in the butter with a pastry cutter (or a potato masher if you don’t have a pastry cutter). Once the flour mixture is the consistency of coarse meal, stir in the sausage, cheese and chives.

Then, pour in the milk. Once the dough has come together, turn it out onto a cutting board and roll out to a 3/4″ thickness.

Cut with a biscuit/cookie cutter and place on a prepared baking sheet. Brush with melted butter and bake 15 – 18 minutes, or until golden.
