Biscuits and Sausage Gravy: The Ultimate Comfort Breakfast

Few breakfasts are as classic and comforting as biscuits and sausage gravy. Warm, flaky biscuits smothered in rich, creamy sausage gravy are the ultimate indulgence—a dish that’s perfect for lazy weekends, family gatherings, or any time you crave a hearty, satisfying meal.

What You’ll Need

For the biscuits:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
  • 3/4 cup milk

For the sausage gravy:

  • 1 pound breakfast sausage (pork or turkey)
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2–3 cups milk
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Optional: pinch of crushed red pepper or garlic powder

How to Make It

Step 1: Make the Biscuits

  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Gradually stir in milk until the dough just comes together—don’t overmix!
  5. Turn the dough onto a floured surface, gently pat it out to about 1-inch thickness, and cut into biscuits using a round cutter.
  6. Place biscuits on a baking sheet and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 2: Make the Sausage Gravy

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and fully cooked. Break it into small pieces as it cooks.
  2. Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir for 1–2 minutes to form a roux.
  3. Gradually pour in milk while stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
  4. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 5–7 minutes.
  5. Season with salt, black pepper, and optional spices to taste.
