Ingredients
Scale
Stuffing Mixture
- 1 (6 oz) package of stuffing mix (any variety: herb, cornbread, or savory)
- 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1 egg
- ½ cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
Additional Ingredients
- ½ cup cooked, crumbled sausage
- ½ cup cooked turkey (diced or shredded)
- ¼ cup finely chopped apple
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley or sage
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Muffin Tin: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners to prevent sticking.
- Soften Stuffing Mix: In a bowl, combine the stuffing mix and chicken or vegetable broth. Let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes, allowing the stuffing to absorb the liquid and soften completely.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and garlic powder to ensure even distribution.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk the egg, sour cream or plain Greek yogurt, and melted unsalted butter until smooth and well combined.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl and fold in the soaked stuffing mixture. Stir gently until fully combined. Now, fold in the optional ingredients like cooked sausage, cooked turkey, finely chopped apple, and fresh herbs (parsley or sage).
- Fill Muffin Cups and Bake: Spoon the biscuit dough evenly into the prepared muffin cups or form rounded mounds on a baking sheet. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the biscuits to rest in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve warm with butter, gravy, or alongside apple-stuffed turkey for a delicious meal.
Notes
- You can choose any stuffing mix variety such as herb, cornbread, or savory to customize flavor.
- The apple adds a subtle sweetness and moisture but can be omitted if desired.
- Use either chicken or vegetable broth for soaking the stuffing mix depending on dietary preference.
- Substitute sour cream with plain Greek yogurt for a tangier flavor and healthier option.
- Make sure not to overmix the dough to keep the biscuits light and fluffy.
- These biscuits are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days and reheated.
