Cook Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 8 biscuits
Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough
- 8 breakfast sausage links
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Ensure the air fryer basket is clean and lightly sprayed with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Remove the refrigerated biscuit dough from the can and separate each biscuit. Gently flatten each biscuit with your hands to create a slightly larger surface area.
- Cook the breakfast sausage links in a skillet over medium heat until they are fully cooked and have a golden-brown exterior, approximately 5-7 minutes. Let the sausages cool for a few minutes.
- Place one cooked sausage link in the center of each flattened biscuit dough.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese over the sausage, ensuring even distribution.
- Carefully fold the edges of the biscuit dough around the sausage and cheese, pinching the edges to seal completely and create a pocket.
- Arrange the prepared sausage biscuits in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching each other to allow proper air circulation.
- Cook in the air fryer for 8-10 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
- Carefully remove the sausage biscuits from the air fryer using tongs and let them cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.
- Optional: Serve with additional cheese, hot sauce, or your favorite breakfast condiments.
Tips
- Ensure your air fryer is preheated for consistent cooking and crispy results.
- Don't overcrowd the basket - leave space between biscuits for proper air circulation.
- Use tongs when handling the biscuits to avoid burning your fingers.
- For extra flavor, try different cheese varieties or add a sprinkle of herbs.
- If your biscuits aren't sealing well, use a small amount of water on the edges to help them stick.
- Check biscuits a minute or two early to prevent overcooking, as air fryer temperatures can vary.
- Let the biscuits rest for a few minutes after cooking to allow the cheese to set and prevent burning your mouth.
