Sunrise Sausage Bake Recipes

SUNRISE BISCUIT CASSEROLE

Steps:

• For the biscuit topping: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, yeast, salt and baking soda. Add the butter and shortening or lard to the bowl and gently mix to coat the fat. Work the fat into the flour mixture by hand until the mixture resembles cornmeal and there are pea-size bits of fat throughout the dough.
• Whisk together the buttermilk and maple syrup, then pour over the flour and fat mixture. Gently stir with a wooden spoon (or Danish dough whisk; see Cook's Note) to just combine, making sure there are no flour clumps left. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• For the casserole: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F; spray a 3.5-quart low braising pan or deep skillet with nonstick cooking spray and line with the tater tots. Bake for 20 minutes.

• Roll out the biscuit dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch round. Score the dough in a sun pattern (just a slight score, don't cut all the way through).
