Sweet and Savory Biscuits
Makes 8
Ingredients
- 8 ounces ground pork breakfast sausage
- 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
- 1 (16.3-ounce) can flaky layer biscuits
- 2 (1-ounce) slices Cheddar cheese
- 4 teaspoons berry preserves
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- Garnish: kosher salt, ground black pepper, and granulated sugar
Instructions
- Shape sausage into 4 (3-inch) patties.
- In a medium skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until browned and cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes. Let drain on paper towels.
- In a small bowl, combine confectioners’ sugar and cream cheese, stirring until smooth. Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 425°. Line 1 rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Carefully cut biscuits in half horizontally. On a lightly floured work surface, using a rolling pin, lightly roll biscuit halves into 3½-inch rounds.
- Place 1 sausage patty in center of 4 biscuit halves. Cut each cheese slice into fourths, and place 2 slices on each sausage patty. Evenly place cream cheese mixture in center of 4 biscuits halves. Top cream cheese with 1 teaspoon preserves each. Brush all edges of biscuits with egg. Top each biscuit with remaining 8 biscuit halves. Brush tops with remaining egg. Top half of biscuits with salt and pepper and the other half with granulated sugar.
- Bake biscuits until tops are golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool completely, and place in an airtight container or cover with plastic wrap before refrigerating overnight.
- To reheat the next morning, preheat oven to 425°, and bake until biscuits are warmed though, 10 minutes more.
