Sausage and Cheese Biscuits via @pounddropper

These Sausage and Cheese Biscuits are made with only a few simple ingredients and simple to make. No yeast, No kneading, nothing! These can be made in less than 20 minutes! They make a fantastic side dish to any meal!

Serving: Makes 12 drop biscuits

GREEN: 2 SmartPoints for 1 biscuit or 2 biscuits for 4 SmartPoints

BLUE: 2 SmartPoints for 1 biscuit serving or 2 biscuits for 3 SmartPoints

PURPLE: 2 SmartPoints for 1 biscuit serving or 2 biscuits for 3 SmartPointsThere is nothing quite like a warm, cheesy biscuits straight from the oven.

 

These are a perfect side dish to your favorite meal. This sausage and cheese biscuit recipe is super simple and doesn’t require yeast, kneading or rising time.

What Ingredients do I need to make these Sausage and Cheese Biscuits?

  • Self-rising flour -I use Gold Medal brand
  • Plain nonfat Greek yogurt -I use Fage or Trader Joe’s
  • Two eggs-divided
  • Jimmy Dean fully cooked turkey sausage crumbles– I like to use Jimmy Dean fully cooked turkey crumbles. They are fully cooked and don’t require cooking or crumbling-another reason is a 3/4 cup is only 3 Smartpoints! You can find this next to the bacon in the refrigerated area at Walmart. If you can’t find it you can always use any brand of cooked turkey sausage and then crumble it yourself. You’ll use 3/4 cup or about 4 oz. 
  • Light cheese -I use Trader Joe’s lite 3 cheese blend or Velveeta Shreds

 

How do I make these Sausage and Cheese Biscuits?

In a mixing bowl, combine flour and Greek yogurt.

Stir until combined.

 

Using a spatula stir in 1 egg and mix until all ingredients have been incorporated.

Fold in sausage crumbles and cheese. 

Using a spoon, scoop dough and drop dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Repeat steps until 12 biscuits are formed.

Cook for 15-18 minutes or until biscuits are lightly brown. 

Serving: Makes 12 drop biscuits

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup self-rising flour -I use Gold Medal brand
  • 3/4 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt -I use Fage or Trader Joe’s
  • 2 eggs, divided
  • 3/4 cup Jimmy Dean fully cooked turkey sausage crumbles
  • 1/2 cup light cheese -I use Trader Joe’s lite 3 cheese blend or Velveeta Shreds

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400° degrees.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine flour and Greek yogurt. Stir until combined.
  3. Using a spatula stir in 1 whole egg and mix until all ingredients have been incorporated.
  4. Fold in sausage crumbles and cheese. 
  5. Using a spoon, scoop dough and drop dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat steps until 12 biscuits are formed.
  6. In a small bowl, beat the other whole egg with 1 Tbsp water to make egg wash. Using a basting brush, brush the tops of the biscuits with egg wash. The egg wash helps make the tops of the biscuits lightly brown. 
  7. Cook for 15-18 minutes or until biscuits are lightly brown. 

Serving: Makes 12 drop biscuits

GREEN: 2 SmartPoints per serving or 2 biscuits for 4 SmartPoints

BLUE: 2 SmartPoints for 1 biscuit serving or 2 biscuits for 3 SmartPoints

PURPLE: 2 SmartPoints for 1 biscuit serving or 2 biscuits for 3 SmartPoints

    Lindsay, hi lovie! I’m the same lady that told you about the Sukrin gold brown sugar replacement. I use it quite a bit. Hey I gotta make these biscuits! Have you ever tried Cabot 50% less fat sharp cheddar? Girl let’s talk! It is so flavorful and it’s like 2 ozs for 4 pts I think. I was ordering from the maker of the cheese, Dakin farms directly, but have since found it at my local Hy bee. It would be great in these biscuits! Keep doing what you’re doing…love your recipes!

    Just made these! So yummy. Want to make for Christmas morning. I take breakfast to another house. How would you suggest to keep these warm or best way to reheat? Thanks.

      Oh that is so great to hear. So, You can reheat the in the microwave or oven. IF you do microwave them I would suggest covering them with a damp paper towel to help keep them from drying out. Thank you! Merry Christmas!

    wondering if you think this would work with GF flour 1 to 1? How essential is the self rising element?

    Reply
    • Lindsay Kehl says

      January 7, 2019 at 3:05 pm

      Yes. You would just add 1 tsp of baking powder and a dash of salt per 1/2 cup of the gluten free flour. Thanks

        I just tried these for the first time. I wanted a little sweet flavor, so I added some Maple Extract to the dough. They turned out fantastic. Thanks for the recipe!!!

    How much dough would you say we are scooping out and dropping on the sheet? Like a small cookie scooper or tablespoon maybe?

    Have you made any thing sweet with this dough?(like cinnamon and some sort of seeetner). Can you use any other flour? Almond or coconut? Do you know if it would be just as WW friendly?

    • Lindsay Kehl says

      February 4, 2019 at 3:50 pm

      I haven’t made it with any other kind of flour. I can be done as long as you add 1/2 tsp of baking powder and a pinch of salt. That way it will help the biscuits rise. The point value would depend on the brand of flour used. Hope that helps. Thank you

    Hi! I’m new to your website, but you have some amazing recipes that I can’t wait to try:) I just had a quick question about your 2 ingredient dough recipe: have you ever used the dairy free plain yogurts? Just wondering if you think they will work the same way without any adjustments. Thanks!

      Hi Jessica!

      Welcome! I’m so happy you are excited to try my recipes. As for the 2 ingredient dough-I have not tried using a dairy free plain yogurt. I have used regular plain non fat yogurt and I have to say that the dough is super sticky when I have used it.

      You could give it a try-I would recommend using bit less of it since it may be a thinner and adding an egg to dough to help bond the yogurt and self rising flour together.

      Hope that helps!

    LOVED this recipe. Leftovers are great warmed in the microwave. I even split one of the leftover biscuits in half and cooked an egg to put in the middle to make a breakfast sandwich. I had never tried the turkey sausage crumbles, but they were great in this recipe!

    Hi really looking forward to making
    these! A quick questions about freezing these do they freeze well or not really?

      Hi Vanessa,

      Yes, these do freeze well. They can be stored in the fridge for up to a week or in the freezer for up to a month. Just thaw them overnight in the fridge when ready to reheat.

      Thank you!
