I’m on a comfort food kick at the moment.  And what says comfort more than sausage gravy over biscuits?  Not much, in my opinion. And I never knew how easy it was to make!  It’s a quick and easy breakfast, although being the Yankee I am, I’m not sure that I consider “biscuits and gravy” a meal on its own. I feel like it needs a main protein, although in this recipe I go heavy on the sausage to make up for that.

Of course, I never actually had biscuits and gravy (or even chicken and waffles) until I moved down to VA. Which still amuses me because Northern VA isn’t even that far south. But I can say that it’s made tasty new foods accessible to me!  And for that I’ll forever be grateful.

I like adding a splash of hot sauce to the pan for an extra bit of bite, but of course, personal preference rules all. And you already can tailor some of the spice depending on which kind of breakfast sausage you purchase–anything from mild to super duper spicy!  So put on that bathrobe, grab those biscuits and whip yourself up a batch of comfort like no other!

Secrets to Success

• Don’t overcomplicate it! This recipe is easy and delicious, so dive right in.
• Like chunky gravy? You’re in control. I love having big hearty chunks of sausage in my gravy because it feels more filling for breakfast. Making your own means you control the chunkiness of your gravy.
• When it comes to biscuits, homemade are amazing. If you’re looking to make your own, try making these sour cream and chive biscuits, they’re to die for! But honestly, I’m more likely to use Mary B’s frozen biscuits for a quick and easy option.

Looking for other breakfast recipes? Try out these options:

• Sour cream and chive biscuits are a perfect biscuit to this gravy!
• For a handheld option, brunch burger bombs are a crowd-pleaser.
• Looking for a healthy take on pancakes? Well look no further than healthful greek yogurt pancakes.

Instructions

• Bake or reheat biscuits according to package instructions.
• Heat a large pan over medium heat. Remove breakfast sausage from its wrapping, and sauté until crumbles are cooked through.
• Add in flour and stir to coat. It should absorb some of the oil and stick to the sausage.
• Add in the milk by half cups, stirring and allowing to thicken.
• Reduce heat and simmer 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce as desired.
• Split biscuits in half, and top with gravy. Serve hot with other breakfast foods
