Step 4: Fold for Fluffiness

This trick gives you tall, layered biscuits:

1. Pat the dough into a rectangle about an inch thick.
2. Fold it into thirds, like a letter.
3. Pat it out again and repeat once more.

Step 5: Add the Sausage

1. Scatter the cooked sausage evenly over the dough.
2. Gently press it in so it sticks.
3. Fold the dough over itself to seal the sausage in layers inside the biscuits.
4. Pat it down again to about ¾-inch thickness.

Step 6: Cut the Biscuits

1. Use a biscuit cutter or a cup to punch out round biscuits.
   • Press straight down—don’t twist, or they won’t rise right.
2. Place each biscuit on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 7: Bake to Golden Perfection

1. Heat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Bake the biscuits for 13–15 minutes, or until the tops are puffed and golden.
3. Brush with a little melted butter after baking for an extra-Southern shine.

Serving Ideas

• Serve warm with honey, jam, or cheese slices.
• Pair with eggs for a full breakfast plate.
