Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons Fresh sage leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground allspice
  • 1/2 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 1/2 pounds Pork sausage
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 3/4 cups Unbleached all-purpose flour
  • Unsalted butter, or as needed
  • 4 cups whole milk
  • cup Plain yogurt

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 425F. Cover a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper.
  2. Make the biscuits: sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together into a large bowl. Using two knives or a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the texture rangers from cornmeal to the size of small peas. (These two steps can be done quickly in a food processor.) Using a fork, gradually mix in the yogurt, then the milk, until the dough is quite soft and somewhat sticky. Work quickly without overworking the dough. Turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it briefly, just long enough to get it to hold together.
  3. Roll it out so it is about 1 1/4 inches thick, and cut it into 2 i
  4. While the biscuits are baking, prepare the sausages: place all the sausage ingredients in a large bowl and mix thoroughly, using your fingers.To test the seasoning, fry a tiny patty and taste; adjust if necessary.
  5. Place the patties in a large heavy or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, and cook until they are crisp and brown on the outside and cooked through inside, about 8 minutes per side.
  6. Transfer the sausage patties to a warmed platter and keep warm.
