Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pound bulk breakfast sausage
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 Buttermilk Biscuits, recipe follows
4 slices American cheese
4 hash brown patties, cooked according to package instructions
4 fried eggs
Chopped fresh chives, for garnish
Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking sheet
2 1/2 cups all-purpose four, plus more for dusting
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 stick cubed and chilled and 1/2 stick at room temperature
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the sausage gravy: In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon into crumbles until cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook about 2 minutes over medium-low heat. Whisk in the milk and cook until the sauce begins to thicken. Season with salt and pepper.
  • For the eggs: Cut each Biscuit in half and place the bottom halves on a baking sheet. Place a slice of American cheese on each bottom half, then bake just until the cheese is melted, 5 to 8 minutes. Top each with a hash brown patty, a generous spoonful of sausage gravy, one egg and the chives. Top each with the remaining biscuit half and serve warm.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and the chilled, cubed butter. Using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour until it resembles a coarse meal. Stir in the baking powder, salt, sugar, and baking soda. Form a well in the center of the flour and pour in the buttermilk. Mix with a fork until all of the ingredients are incorporated and the dough begins to shape into a ball. (The dough will be slightly dry.)
  • Dust a clean work surface with flour, then coat your palms and rub some flour on a rolling pin. Turn out the dough on the work surface. Knead the dough for 1 to 2 minutes, folding it over onto itself each time. Roll the dough to about 1/2-inch thick. Dip a 3-inch biscuit cutter or the rim of a 3-inch-wide glass in flour, then cut out the biscuits. Reshape the leftover dough into a ball, roll it out again, and cut out more biscuits. Repeat this process until the dough is gone.
  • Place the biscuits on the baking sheet and bake until the tops are golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. While the biscuits are still hot, brush some of the remaining butter on each biscuit.

Country Style Eggs Benedict image

Eggs Benedict - poached eggs on Canadian Bacon and English Muffins, topped with Hollandaise Sauce and other tidbits - I love these! But my husband does not really like Hollandaise Sauce. So I made him a breakfast plate of "Country Style Eggs Benedict" this morning, and he was very happy.

Categories     Eggs

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 breakfast sausage patties
the grease from cooking the sausage
1 can(s) grands biscuits
2 eggs
1-2 Tbsp bacon grease
2-3 Tbsp all purpose flour
8-12 oz evaporated milk or fresh cream

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F for the biscuits. Cook the sausage patties in a skillet over medium low heat, turning often, until browned and cooked through. Drain on paper towels. Put the biscuits in the oven once it's preheated, and bake them for 15 or so minutes.
  • 2. Reserve sausage grease in skillet on low heat. Stir the flour into the grease until well dispersed and there are no lumps. Slowly stir in the milk or cream, stirring until thickened and starting to boil. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Reduce heat to warm. This is your gravy.
  • 3. Take biscuits out of oven and cover with a clean towel to keep warm. Fry eggs one at a time in another skillet in a little bacon grease. We like ours over-medium, but you can choose any type you like.
  • 4. Split a biscuit on a serving plate. Top with a sausage patty or two, and the fried egg. Spoon thickened gravy over all.

Tips:

  • To poach the eggs perfectly, bring a large pot of water to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl and then carefully slide it into the simmering water.
  • Cook the eggs for 3-4 minutes, or until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny.
  • To make the hollandaise sauce, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, and cayenne pepper in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water.
  • Whisk constantly until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
  • To assemble the eggs Benedict, place a toasted English muffin on a plate. Top with a poached egg and a slice of Canadian bacon.
  • Drizzle with hollandaise sauce and sprinkle with paprika.
  • Serve immediately.

Conclusion:

Eggs Benedict is a classic brunch dish that is sure to impress your guests. With its rich and creamy hollandaise sauce, perfectly poached eggs, and crispy Canadian bacon, this dish is a true delight. Follow these tips to make the best eggs Benedict you've ever tasted.
