Ingredients
Scale
- ½ lb (225g) breakfast sausage (pork or turkey)
- 1 can (16 oz/450g) refrigerated biscuit dough (8 large biscuits)
- 2 cups (480 ml) whole milk
- ¼ cup (30 g) all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsps unsalted butter
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- Salt to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preparation: Lavishly coat a muffin tin with cooking spray or butter to ensure effortless release of the biscuit cups.
- Dough Shaping: Unroll refrigerated biscuit dough and delicately transform each round into a supple, thin disk that will elegantly drape inside the muffin cavities.
- Fitting the Shell: Meticulously press and shape the dough to completely line each cup, creating a seamless interior that reaches slightly above the rim with a rustic, textured edge.
- Final Inspection: Carefully examine each biscuit cup to confirm uniform thickness and complete coverage, eliminating any potential weak spots that could compromise the structural integrity of the delicate pastry shell.
Notes
- Prevent Sticking: Thoroughly grease muffin tin with cooking spray or butter to ensure easy removal of biscuit cups after baking.
- Gentle Dough Handling: Stretch biscuit dough carefully with fingertips to create thin, even layers without tearing or creating holes.
- Seal Edges Completely: Check for any gaps or thin spots in the dough to prevent leakage and ensure uniform cooking of the filling.
- Create Rustic Texture: Allow biscuit edges to extend slightly above the muffin cup rim for a more appealing, homemade appearance.
