Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, chilled
- 0.75 cup Low-fat buttermilk
- 0.5 pound Ground turkey
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried sage
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Onion powder
- 4 large Eggs
- 4 slices Low sodium cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder.
Cut the chilled unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your hands to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the buttermilk until just combined. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together.
Roll the dough out to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the biscuits for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown on top. Remove from the oven and set aside.
In a bowl, combine the ground turkey, ground black pepper, dried sage, garlic powder, and onion powder. Form into 4 equal-sized patties.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through.
In a separate nonstick pan, scramble the eggs over medium heat until they are fully cooked but still soft. Set aside.
Assemble the biscuits by slicing each one in half. Layer with a turkey sausage patty, scrambled egg, a slice of low sodium cheddar cheese, and a sprinkle of chopped parsley.
Serve warm and enjoy a satisfying low sodium breakfast sandwich.
