Description
This recipe for Sausage Gravy and Biscuits delivers rich, creamy gravy served over warm, fluffy biscuits. A timeless Southern breakfast favorite!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 cups milk
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon butter (optional)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, crumble and cook the sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
- Once the sausage is cooked, sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
- Slowly add the milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring frequently, until the gravy thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). If you prefer a creamier texture, add a tablespoon of butter and stir until melted.
- Serve the sausage gravy hot over biscuits, toast, or mashed potatoes.
