Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and prepare a 9x9-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
  2. Cook the breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat for about 8-10 minutes until nicely browned. Drain excess fat and set aside to cool.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and baking powder. Gradually stir in buttermilk until a sticky dough forms, then gently fold in the cooked sausage and cheddar cheese.
  4. Pour melted butter into the prepared baking dish, spread biscuit dough over the butter, and cut into 9 equal squares.
  5. Bake in your preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, rotating halfway through. Remove when golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
