Cinnamon Sausage Breakfast Biscuits
Author: Rachel's Healthy Plate
Serves: 12 biscuits
Ingredients
- 2 c all purpose flour + ¼ c for dusting
- 2 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 5 tbsp butter
- 1 c skim milk
- *1 c turkey sausage crumbles- optional: reserve a few crumbles to put on top of the dough
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425F.
- In a large bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cinnamon.
- Using a pastry blender or large fork cut the butter into the flour mixture until the butter resembles small crumbles.
- Stir the sausage crumbles into the mixture so that they become coated with flour.
- Add milk and gently stir until dough is formed.
- Flour a work surface and turn the dough out. Gently knead the dough a few times, folding the dough over onto itself, just until everything has come together enough to roll out. Add more flour as needed to prevent sticking.
- Lightly flour a cookie sheet and roll the dough out into a large rectangle until it is ½ inch thick.
- Cut dough into 12 squares using a pizza cutter. Press reserved sausage crumbles onto the top of your dough and sprinkle with a little extra cinnamon.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes until dough is cooked and biscuits are golden brown. Enjoy!

*If you can't find turkey sausage crumbles you can substitute another brand of turkey or chicken sausage links (Applegate and Jones Dairy Farm are good options). Simply thaw and dice the links so that you have about 1 cup. Other brands may alter the points value so be sure to adjust and recalculate for that.
