Breakfast fare fits in amazingly well at game-day gatherings. Wrap your favorite breakfast sausage links in homemade biscuit dough, and serve with maple syrup for dunking.

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h20m

Yield 24 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 12

Twelve 4-inch links breakfast sausage
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, frozen in 1 piece
2 tablespoons finely chopped scallion greens
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
Maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, set a baking sheet on it and preheat to 400 degrees F.
  • Toss the sausage links with the oil in a large bowl. Add the sausages to the hot baking sheet, and spread out in 1 layer. Roast, turning halfway through, until lightly browned in spots and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely. Cut each sausage in half crosswise.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, baking soda and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Grate the frozen butter on the large holes of a box grater, and add to the bowl, along with the scallions. Add the buttermilk, and mix together gently with a fork. When a shaggy dough forms, turn it out onto a floured surface.
  • Working quickly, roll the dough out into a 14-by-8-inch rectangle about 1/8 inch thick. Trim each side by about an inch, to yield a 12-by-6-inch rectangle with clean edges. Cut twelve 1-inch-wide strips, then cut those strips in half crosswise. (You should have 24 strips, each about 1 inch by 3 inches.)
  • Wrap a biscuit strip around the belly of each sausage half, and place, seam-side down, at least 1 inch apart on a clean baking sheet. Sprinkle a small pinch of cracked black pepper on top of each one. (Refrigerate up to overnight if not baking right away.) Bake until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Serve with maple syrup on the side.

Yield 12 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 small Italian sausage links (about 3 inches each)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 pound refrigerated pizza dough, at room temperature
3/4 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
Warmed marinara sauce, for dipping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Toss the sausages with 1 tablespoon olive oil on a baking sheet and bake, turning the sausages halfway through, until golden brown and fully cooked, about 35 minutes.
  • Line another baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Combine the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and the rosemary and oregano in a small bowl; set aside. Roll out the pizza dough into a 6-by-12-inch rectangle, then cut the dough crosswise into twelve 1-inch-wide strips.
  • Wrap a strip of dough around each sausage and set on the prepared baking sheet with the ends of the dough on the bottom. Brush with the herb oil and sprinkle with the mozzarella and parmesan. Bake until the dough is golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve with marinara sauce.
