Ingredients

Scale

For the Biscuits:

  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 cup Butter (cold)
  • 3/4 cup Milk

For the Gravy:

  • 1 pound Ground Sausage
  • 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 cups Milk
  • Salt to taste
  • Black Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Biscuit Dough: Start by preheating your oven to 450°F (232°C) and whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually stir in the milk until just combined.
  2. Shape the Biscuits: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead it gently just until smooth. Roll out to about 1 inch thick, then cut out your biscuits using a round cutter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  3. Bake the Biscuits: Bake the biscuits in your preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. When done, remove and let them cool slightly while you make the gravy.
  4. Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet, cook the ground sausage over medium heat, breaking it apart until browned and fully cooked. This will infuse the oil in the pan with delicious sausage flavor, which is key for your gravy base.
  5. Make the Gravy: Add the flour to the skillet, stirring to combine it with the fat from the sausage. Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens; this should take about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Notes

  • Use Cold Ingredients: Cold butter and milk will help your biscuits rise higher, ensuring they are fluffy.
  • Don’t Overmix: The key to tender biscuits is to treat the dough gently; avoid overmixing when adding milk.
  • Let the Gravy Simmer: Low and slow is the name of the game; let your gravy simmer for a few extra minutes for deeper flavor.
  • Add Flavor Depth: Experiment with seasoning in your sausage or gravy to enhance the overall flavor profile.
  • Serve Immediately: For the best experience, serve your biscuits and gravy right after preparation to enjoy the perfect texture.
