Sausage Biscuits and Gravy is a classic Southern breakfast dish that consists of fluffy biscuits topped with a rich and creamy sausage gravy. It's the perfect comfort food to start your day with!
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 cups whole milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 biscuits, homemade or store-bought
Directions
- In a large skillet, cook the ground sausage over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Break up the sausage into crumbles as it cooks.
- Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste.
