- ½ Pounds sausage turkey
- 2 Teaspoons dill weed divided
- 1 Teaspoons salt
- 2 Teaspoons black pepper coarse, divided
- ½ Teaspoons red pepper flakes divided
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- ¼ cup whole wheat flour
- 1 Teaspoon baking powder
- 1 Teaspoon baking soda
- ½ Teaspoon garlic salt
- ½ Teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ cup salted butter softened
- 2 Tablespoon sour cream
- 1 cup buttermilk
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 ¼ cup mozzarella cheese divided
- 1 cup spinach baby
- ½ cup grape tomatoes halved
- dill fresh, optional garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat a skillet over medium heat and bring a pot of water to a boil. Add a splash of white vinegar to the water. This will help the eggs peel easily. Prepare a bowl of ice water.
- Carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water. Boil for 4 minutes. Remove eggs and place into the ice water.
- Add a swirl of olive oil to the hot skillet followed by the Turkey sausage. Break apart with a wooden spatula into bite sized pieces. Season with 1 teaspoon dill, salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes. Brown and drain. Set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, garlic salt, and onion powder. Sift over a large mixing bowl.
- Next, add softened butter, sour cream, buttermilk, and heavy cream. Stir with a wooden spoon until incorporated. Then fold in the remaining dill (1 teaspoon), 1 cup mozzarella cheese, spinach, tomatoes, and sausage.
- Peel the hard boiled eggs.
- Spray a muffin tin with olive or canola oil.
- Fill each tin up ⅓ of the way full with the batter. Place a hard boiled egg in the center of each tin, then spoon batter over the top until just covered.
- Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with remaining shredded mozzarella cheese (¼ cup), pepper (½ teaspoon) , and red pepper flakes(¼ tsp). Place onto the center rack of the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
