Homemade Breakfast Sausage Recipe

September 16, 2014 by Maureen 59 Comments

Ever since I posted my recipe for American biscuits, I’ve been asked for my sausage recipe.  I’ve sent out copies to people as they requested it but it’s now time to put it on my blog so people don’t have to ask.  My apologies to all who’ve had to take the time to write to me.

I got up this morning and received the most complimentary email from Anna, a reader who’s also an expat but she lives in Croatia. She’s been longing for sausage biscuits for breakfast.  She made my biscuit recipe and was swooning but she told me I’d only done half the job.  I love it when a writer makes me laugh.

Homemade Breakfast Sausage

I’ll admit that I had a log of the sausage in the freezer and yesterday I put it in the refrigerator to thaw.  I had no excuse this morning so I whipped up some biscuits, fried up the sausage and felt so American as I stuffed the sausage and cheese biscuit in my mouth.  I was going to add egg but I couldn’t be bothered.  I’ve got several in the freezer so I’ll add egg and cheese to those.

For anyone like me who can't walk into a supermarket and buy bulk breakfast sausage meat, this is a really easy recipe to make and eat - or make and freeze.

If you’re like me and one batch is way too many, just freeze them.  A minute in the microwave and boom, it’s breakfast.
