Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Grease a rectangular baking pan or dish.
- Mix Bisquick, milk, eggs, parsley flakes, dried sage leaves, dried thyme leaves, salt, poultry seasoning, and pepper in a dish with a fork until the batter is of uniform color (lumpy batter).
- Stir in the cooked, cut-up turkey, chopped celery, and chopped onions.
- Bake until golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding sautéed mushrooms or using leftover gravy instead of some milk. If you want a gluten-free version, substitute Bisquick with a gluten-free baking mix. Fresh herbs can enhance the flavor; try substituting dried sage and thyme with fresh if available. Remember to mix gently to keep the batter lumpy for a perfect texture.
