Units
Scale
- 1 lb sausage (e.g., Jimmy Dean)
- 1 (8-oz) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 (12-oz) cans Grands Jr flaky biscuits (20 biscuits total)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray mini muffin pans with cooking spray and set aside. - Cook the Sausage:
In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium-high heat until it’s no longer pink. Drain any excess fat. - Prepare the Filling:
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage, softened cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until well combined. - Prepare the Biscuits:
Remove the biscuits from the cans and split each biscuit in half. Place each biscuit round into the prepared mini muffin tin, pressing them into the cups. - Fill the Biscuit Cups:
Scoop the sausage mixture into the center of each biscuit cup. - Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown. - Serve and Enjoy:
Once baked, remove the biscuit bites from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- For an extra flavor boost, you can add a pinch of garlic powder or Italian seasoning to the sausage mixture.
- These bites freeze well, making them a great option for make-ahead snacks or breakfast on the go.
- Serve with a side of ranch dressing or marinara sauce for dipping!
