Turkey Sausage Gravy & Egg Biscuit Sandwiches – Recipe!

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Turkey sausage is a nice addition to any biscuit.  For brunch on the weekends, when you are craving something decadent, but still want to keep it light and fresh, turkey is the way to go.  Turkey sausage makes a quick skillet gravy, that adds another note of flavor when spooned over an egg biscuit sandwich. This breakfast sandwich is a Must for you brunch lovers.

Making the biscuits is a simple process, using a frozen stick of butter and grating it on a box grater.  I learned this technique from a Southern Living Magazine cooking video and it is genius.  The butter stay super cold and flaky, when added to the flour and lifts the biscuits just so.  I think you will really appreciate the lightness of these biscuits especially, topped with a sunny-side up egg and a spoonful of creamy turkey sausage gravy.  Happy Brunching!
