Sausage Gravy and Biscuits
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 cups whole milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 prepared biscuits
Instructions
- In a large skillet, cook 1 pound of ground breakfast sausage over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, until browned and no longer pink, about 8-10 minutes.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour over the cooked sausage, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes to cook the flour and coat the sausage.
- Gradually pour in 3 cups of whole milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the gravy thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- While the gravy is simmering, warm the prepared biscuits according to package instructions or homemade recipe.
- To serve, split the warm biscuits in half and place them on serving plates. Spoon the hot sausage gravy over the biscuits and serve immediately.
