1 (9.6) ounce package Jimmy Dean fully-cooked hearty sausage crumbles*
1¼ cups biscuit mix (like Bisquick)
½ stick butter or margarine, melted
2 tablespoons boiling water
1 large egg (or egg substitute), lightly beaten
½ cup milk
2 tablespoons thinly sliced scallion, including some of the green part
½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin and set aside. Combine biscuit mix, melted butter and water, stirring to make a dough. Place 1 tablespoon of the dough into the bottom and slightly up the sides of each muffin well. Divide sausage evenly among the wells.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together egg with milk. Stir in scallion, mixing to combine. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the egg mixture into each muffin well. Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly browned and slightly puffed. Remove from oven and divide cheese over each biscuit. Return to oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until cheese is melted. Remove tin from oven and allow biscuits to rest for a few minutes before popping them out of the tin. Serve immediately. Makes 12 biscuits. *Kitchen Ade note: One (1/2-pound) package bulk breakfast sausage, cooked, drained and crumbled, may be substituted for the pre-made sausage crumbles.
