Time 45m

Yield 8 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper, optional
3 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
1 tablespoon shortening
3/4 cup 2% milk
SAUSAGE GRAVY:
1 pound bulk maple pork sausage
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 cups 2% milk
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground sage
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and, if desired, pepper. Cut in butter and shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk; stir just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 8-10 times., Pat or roll dough to 1-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-in. biscuit cutter. Place 1 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 15-17 minutes., Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink, 6-8 minutes, breaking into crumbles. Stir in flour until blended; gradually stir in milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until sauce is thickened, 4-6 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients. Serve with warm biscuits.

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always perfect. The biscuits are fluffy and the gravy is rich and flavorful.

I'm not a fan of spicy food, so I omitted the cayenne pepper from the gravy. It still turned out delicious!

I added some chopped green onions to the gravy and it gave it an extra layer of flavor. Definitely recommend this recipe.

This recipe was a game-changer for my breakfast routine. I love how the sweetness of the maple syrup complements the savory sausage and biscuit.
