biscuits and sausage gravy

Sausage Gravy is so easy to make and you only need 3 ingredients. If you’re looking for a great recipe to make for a Brunch I’d serve this with scrambled eggs and fruit on the side. For the biscuits, you can make them homemade or use store-bought canned biscuits. Salt and pepper are freebies since you already have those on hand!

Biscuits and Gravy Tips

This is a good base recipe if you've never made biscuits and gravy before. From there you can start adding in whatever else you like butter, sautted onions, bacon, or even cheese.

Make ahead: If you wish to make this ahead of time cook everything on the skillet and keep it warm in the crockpot.

Can this be frozen? Dairy products often change consistency when they're frozen. I'd just make this dish ahead of time instead of freezing it and make sure that it all gets eaten.

What Ingredients do I need for Biscuits and Gravy  

In this section, you can find substitutes or suggestions for certain check here

Sausage  - hot, mild, or Italian 

Flour  - all-purpose flour, cornstarch and biscuit mix can also be subbed for flour

Whole Milk - can also use 1% or 2% milk 

Salt and Black Pepper - to taste 

Warmed Biscuits - preferably homemade or store-bought 

How to make Sausage Gravy 

With your finger, tear small pieces of sausage and add them in a single layer to a large heavy skillet. Brown the sausage over medium-high heat until no longer pink. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Sprinkle on half the flour and stir so that the sausage soaks it all up, then add more little by little. Stir it around and cook it for another minute or so, then pour in the milk, stirring constantly.

Cook the gravy, stirring frequently, until it thickens. (This may take a good 10 to 12 minutes.) Sprinkle in the seasoned salt and pepper and continue cooking until very thick and luscious. If it gets too thick too soon, just splash in another ½ cup of milk or more if needed. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Spoon the sausage gravy over warm biscuits and serve immediately!
