Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Vegan butter (cold)
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened plant milk (such as almond or soy)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 8 ounces Vegan breakfast sausage (crumbled or chopped)
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for gravy)
- 2 cups Unsweetened plant milk (for gravy)
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Sage (dried)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt (adjust to taste)
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper (freshly cracked)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
Cut in 1/2 cup of cold vegan butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually pour in 3/4 cup of unsweetened plant milk and stir until the dough comes together. Avoid overmixing.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it 2-3 times. Pat it into a 1-inch thick circle.
Use a biscuit cutter or a round glass to cut out biscuits and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown. Remove and set aside.
While the biscuits bake, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add 8 ounces of crumbled vegan sausage and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes. Remove the sausage and set it aside.
To the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and whisk until blended with the remaining oil.
Slowly whisk in 2 cups of unsweetened plant milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
Add 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon of dried sage, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
Cook the gravy for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until thickened.
Stir the cooked vegan sausage back into the gravy and adjust seasoning as needed.
Serve the warm biscuits smothered with the savory vegan gravy. Enjoy with your special someone!
