These soulful, golden biscuits of goodness are a heart-healthy, all-in-one breakfast
Ingredients
8 ounces turkey breakfast sausage
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
1 cup sliced green onions
1 cup white whole wheat flour
1 cup regular unbleached flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
1 ¼ cup buttermilk
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
Directions
Preheat oven to 425F.
Saute turkey sausage in a little olive oil and set aside.
In a large bowl, mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, garlic powder and salt together. Dice the cold butter into ¼ inch squares, then use your hands (or a food processor) to work the butter into the flour, until it’s broken up into little crumbs.
Add cheese, green onions, maple syrup and cooked sausage and mix together. Finally, add buttermilk and mix well.
Line baking sheet with parchment paper and form into 10 evenly-sized discs, about four ounces each.
Bake for 12 minutes, then rotate baking sheet and bake for another 10-12 minutes. Remove when golden brown on top.
