Depends where you are. Americans use something called 'breakfast sausage' to make theirs. It's somewhat similar to Lincolnshire sausage, if you're in a country that sells that. Otherwise, you're gonna have to look up a recipe for American breakfast sausage first.
Then:
Breakfast sausage, raw, 100g
Flour, 1 tbsp
Grease, if needed
Pepper, as desired
Milk, half cup
Salt, to taste.
If using sausage in a case, remove from the case first.
Crumble cook the sausage until done, then add flour and pepper and stir to combine with the pan fat, adding a little grease, if needed to mix the flour into a paste.
Whisk in milk to dissolve flour paste, thicken and heat through.
Salt to taste.
For biscuits:
Soft flour, 150g
Yeast, instant, 4g
Salt, 4g
Butter or grease, ice cold, 60g
Water, ice cold, as needed
Set the oven to its hottest setting; meanwhile whisk together flour, yeast and salt.
Cut butter/grease into the flour mixture until crumbly and about the consistency of wet sand.
Add just enough water to make a stiff dough.
Roll the dough out flat and cut, either with a biscuit cutter into circles or by hand into squares (sounds weird, but believe me, unless you have a biscuit roller, pic related, square biscuits are better than round because you won't have to re-mix, re-knead and re-roll the leftover parts of the dough, only to yield a tougher second batch).
Place onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and place into the hot oven, adjusting the temperature to 190°C/375°F.
Bake until they're done. Depending on the size of the oven and your biscuits, that could be anywhere from 12-20 minutes or so.
Variation: for buttermilk biscuits, use butter only (not grease), swap buttermilk in for water, add a pinch of sugar, omit the yeast and swap out the soft flour for self-raising/self-rising flour. Alternately, do all the swaps as above except for the flour; use the typical soft flour. Add 1tsp baking powder, though.

No one puts yeast in biscuits, you should be using baking powder and maybe a little bit of baking soda for leavening.
Yeast is for rolls and bread, not biscuits.

why would you not utilize the delicious sausage fat for the roux? are you a communist?
>>7132335
Read the whole thing, Anon.
>>7132326 covers that.
And to add to the thread, White Lily is the brand most southerners prefer for biscuits. It's a soft flour and is used for cake and biscuit baking. If you're using volumetric recipes, you can use all-purpose flour in place of WL, just take out 1-2 tbsp of the flour out per cup used.

Protip: It's just ground pork with a bunch of sage.

Except yeast would give you a different texture. Biscuits are not meant to be yeast-raised. They're a quick bread and that's why they traditionally use chemical leavening.

>drain fat

>Béchamel sauce with "out of casing" sausages comes from America
What ever you have to say to rationalize your undeserved superiority complex.

>>7133049
Pigs were brought to the Americas by European settlers. I don't understand your attachment to fast food either, you're confusing.
>>7133053
Americans were also brought to America by Europeans
Who became american :^) Just like apple pie.

>>7132839
No. Lincolnshire sausage is just pork and sage.
American breakfast sausage is pork and sage and pepper and molasses and sugar and thyme (or marjoram) and a wee bit of powdered clove.
