Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 16 ounces refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 1 pound breakfast sausage
  • 1/4 cup fat drippings ((or butter))
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt ((or to taste))
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Brown sausage in a medium skillet over medium heat, breaking it apart into small pieces as it cooks.
  • Remove sausage and place in a 9x13" baking pan, reserving the drippings in the skillet.
  • If you don't have 1/4 cup of fat drippings in the skillet, add butter until you have the proper amount.
  • Set heat to low and sprinkle in flour, whisking it continually with the fat to form a roux. Cook for approximately three minutes while stirring.
  • Add milk a few splashes at a time and whisk into the roux. Repeat until all milk has been added.
  • Let gravy simmer until slightly thickened, then add salt and pepper and pour over sausage in the baking pan.
  • Cut biscuit dough into halves and quarters and place on top of the gravy.
  • Place in the oven and bake for 20-25, or until biscuits have cooked though.
