Biscuits and Gravy

Instructions

🥐 Make the biscuits:
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.
  4. Add buttermilk and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix.
  5. Turn dough onto a floured surface, pat to ¾-inch thick, cut into rounds, and bake 12–15 minutes until golden brown.

🌭 Make the sausage gravy:
  1. Brown the sausage in a skillet over medium heat, leaving 2 tbsp of the grease.
  2. Sprinkle flour over the sausage, stirring for 1–2 minutes to make a roux.
  3. Slowly pour in milk while stirring constantly, cooking until thick and creamy (5–7 minutes).
  4. Season with salt and lots of black pepper.

🥛 Serve:

Split the warm biscuits in half and pour the gravy over the top. Garnish with cracked black pepper.


💡 Tip: Add a splash of heavy cream for extra richness, or top with chopped green onions for color and flavor.
