Ingredients

Biscuits

• 1 cup egg whites
• 1 tsp fresh-squeezed lemon juice
• 1 cup pork breadcrumbs
• 1 tsp baking powder (not expired)
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 4 tbsp butter, very cold or frozen, chopped

Sausage gravy

• 16 oz breakfast sausage

• 2/3 cup beef bone broth
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan or other hard cheese

Instructions

Biscuits

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F before you start anything else. Chop the butter and chill it in the fridge or freezer. Line a cookie sheet with parchment.
2. Whip the egg whites on high. Once they bubble, add the lemon juice and whip to very stiff peaks.
3. In a separate bowl, mix the baking powder and pork breadcrumbs, then stir in the cold butter, sour cream and salt.
4. Fold the dry mixture into the whites. Scoop onto the cookie sheet and bake 13–16 minutes.

Gravy

1. Brown the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, letting the crumbles form a crust, 7–8 minutes.
2. Push the sausage aside and sauté the onion and garlic until they start to brown.
3. Stir in the cream cheese, then the broth, then the Parmesan. Simmer until thick and smooth.
4. Reduce to medium-low, simmer a couple of minutes, and season with salt and pepper.
5. Put a couple of biscuits on your plate and smother with gravy. Enjoy!
