Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Breakfast sausage
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
- 3 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 can Refrigerated biscuit dough
Instructions
Preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the can of refrigerated biscuit dough.
Place the biscuit dough pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly greased surface. Bake according to package instructions until golden brown, then set aside.
While the biscuits are baking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the sausage to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until completely browned and cooked through. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium and sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage. Stir well to evenly coat the sausage in the flour. Allow it to cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually pour the milk into the skillet, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
Season the gravy with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Simmer the gravy over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens to your desired consistency. This will take about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and allow the gravy to rest for 1-2 minutes. It will continue to thicken slightly as it cools.
Serve the gravy generously over warm biscuits. Enjoy your Super Sausage Gravy and Cheater Biscuits!
