Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1 cup cooked and crumbled turkey sausage
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh chives (optional)
Optional Toppings
- Extra shredded cheese
- Sliced avocado
- Hot sauce or salsa
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cut in Butter: Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces.
- Add Cheese & Sausage: Stir in shredded cheddar cheese and cooked crumbled turkey sausage evenly.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs and Greek yogurt until smooth.
- Combine: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing for tender biscuits. Fold in chopped chives if using.
- Shape Biscuits: Using a spoon or your hands, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming 8 equal biscuits about 2.5 inches wide. Slightly flatten tops if you like.
- Bake: Bake for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown on top and cooked through. Use a toothpick to check for doneness.
- Cool & Serve: Let biscuits cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm with optional toppings like avocado or hot sauce.

Recipe Notes & Tips
- For best texture, keep the butter cold and do not overmix the dough.
- Substitute turkey sausage with chicken apple sausage or vegetarian sausage for variations.
- To store, place cooled biscuits in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Reheat in the oven or toaster oven to retain crispiness.
