Sausage Rings
Sausage Rings are savory, flaky treats combining seasoned sausage encased in a tender biscuit dough. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or snacks, these warm, flavorful bites appeal to meat lovers and party guests alike, offering a delightful blend of crispy edges and juicy filling.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix Bisquick and water well to form a dough.
- Roll the dough mixture thin on a floured surface.
- Spread the room-temperature sausage in a thin, even layer over the dough.
- Roll from each end toward the center to form two rolls.
- Cut the rolls into 1/2-inch slices.
- Wrap each slice in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight for easier slicing, or freeze for several weeks.
- Bake in a 400°F (200°C) oven until slightly brown, about 20 minutes.
Tips & Substitutions
For a twist, try adding shredded cheese or herbs like parsley to the dough for extra flavor. If you don't have Bisquick, you can make your own by combining flour, baking powder, and salt. Ensure the sausage is spread evenly to avoid uneven cooking. For a spicier version, consider using spicy sausage or adding crushed red pepper flakes to the mixture.
Serving Suggestions
These sausage rings are perfect as an appetizer or a party snack. Serve them with mustard or a tangy dipping sauce for added flavor. They pair beautifully with Sauerkraut Casserole for a hearty meal. For a complete spread, consider adding a fresh salad or roasted vegetables alongside.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover sausage rings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes until warmed through. For longer storage, freeze the wrapped slices and bake directly from the freezer when ready to enjoy.
