The beauty of these adorable little Sausage Biscuit Nests is you can make them using any homemade biscuit dough you fancy! Of course, we’re partial to my popular Almond Flour Biscuits.

How to Make Sausage Biscuit Nests …

Two ingredients is all that’s required – homemade biscuit dough and fully-cooked sausage patties. Then, follow the simple steps below to assemble and bake these adorable little Sausage Biscuit Nests for a perfectly tasty {and healthy} breakfast on the go! Yum!

Step One: Make homemade biscuit dough and cook your sausage patties!

The key to making flavorful {and healthy} Sausage Biscuit Nests is using homemade whole food ingredients! As shown in the photos, I love using my scrumptious Almond Flour Biscuit dough from my published cookbook. It’s one of the most popular recipes on the blog. However, you can use any homemade biscuit dough you’d like with great results!

And when it comes to sensational sausage patties, if you haven’t tried my easy Turkey Breakfast Sausage Patties yet, I highly recommend cooking some up. They’re so flavorful and satisfying, I promise your family will love them! {They’re my kids favorite!}

Step Two: Place and press a fully-cooked sausage patty into the center of each biscuit!

It’s important to use fully-cooked sausage patties, as the short time in the oven to cook the biscuits does not allow enough time to cook raw sausage. (Also the excess fat released from the sausage patties during the cooking process would make for a very soggy biscuit.)

Once you’ve cooked your sausage patties (or if using pre-packaged fully-cooked patties), make sure to bring them to room temperature. Also, be sure to use a paper towel to dab off any excess moistness. Then place one fully-cooked sausage patty into the center of each uncooked biscuit dough round, and gentle press them down into the dough, as shown above.

Step Three: Nestle the biscuit dough around the sausage patties

Once you’ve placed and pressed the fully-cooked sausage patties into the biscuit dough, it’s time to nestle the dough around the sausages. Simply use your hands to shape the dough around the sausages.

Step Four: Bake & enjoy!

Bake the Sausage Biscuit Nests according to the instructions in the biscuit recipe you’re using. You may find that you need to bake the biscuits a little longer than the instructions indicate, depending on the biscuit recipe you’re using. You’ll know they’re done when the biscuits are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted to the side of the sausage patty comes out clean.

Our favorite way to enjoy these tasty little breakfast sandwiches is with a dollop of Homemade Strawberry Preserves, or quick-n-easy Strawberry Chia Seed Jam. The addition of sweet strawberry jam really complements the savory flavors of these hearty sausage biscuits!

Cinnamon Toast Waffles {Grain-free, Dairy-free}

Yield: 4-5 waffles

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat waffle iron. In a small bowl, melt some additional coconut oil for greasing the waffle iron. Set aside.
  2. For the waffle batter: Place all of the liquid ingredients for the waffle batter into a blender or food processor, except for the eggs. Then place all of the dry ingredients on top. Cover and blend on low 10-15 seconds, just until well combined. (Batter will be thick.)
  3. Add the eggs and blend on low about 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend just until eggs are incorporated into the batter.
  4. For the cinnamon batter: Place 1/4 of the waffle batter into a liquid measuring cup. Whisk in the maple syrup, cinnamon and nutmeg. Set aside.
  5. Generously brush waffle iron grids with oil and pour the plain waffle batter evenly into waffle iron, being careful not to overfill. Then drizzle with the top with the cinnamon batter (as shown in the photo above).
  6. Cook about 3-4 minutes, until waffles are lightly brown (see note below). Use a fork to help gently remove the waffles from the waffle iron.
  7. Serve with fresh strawberries and a drizzle of pure maple syrup. For an extra special treat, top with a dollop of Whipped Coconut Cream and an extra sprinkle of cinnamon.

Notes

Since waffle irons come in all shapes and sizes, and some run hotter than others, I recommend cooking one test waffle first. By cooking just one waffle to start, you’ll be able to better determine the perfect cook time based on your particular waffle iron without potentially under- or over-cooking a whole batch.
