Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (plus a couple of Tablespoons for sprinkling on the counter)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 7 tablespoons salted butter (cubed and chilled in freezer)
  • ¾ cups buttermilk (cold (plus a couple of tablespoons for brushing on just before baking))
  • 1 pound pork sausage
  • 1 tablespoon salted butter
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2½ cups whole milk
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to a food processor and pulse together.
  • Then add the well-chilled butter and pulse until the mixture is crumbly.
  • Add in the buttermilk and pulse until just mixed.
  • Sprinkle flour on a clean surface and rolling pin. Place the dough onto the counter and gently roll the dough out into a rectangle shape.
  • Fold a third of the dough onto itself, and then fold the opposite third of the dough onto it.
  • Now press the dough into a rectangle about ½-inch thick. Use a 2½-inch round cookie cutter to cut out as many biscuits as you can. Place these on the baking sheet.
  • Gather up the scraps of dough and again press it out to ½-inch thick. Continue doing this until all the dough is used up.
  • Brush the tops of the biscuits with a little buttermilk then bake for about 12 to 15 minutes or until golden.
  • While the biscuits are baking, prepare the sausage gravy.
  • Begin by breaking up the sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stirring frequently, until the sausage is fully cooked.
  • Add the butter and stir until melted.
  • Sprinkle on the flour and stir until it coats all of the meat. Cook for 2 minutes.
  • Gradually add in the milk and apple cider vinegar and stir the mixture until smooth.
  • Stir in the pepper, seasoned salt, and garlic powder.
  • Allow this to simmer for at least 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  • Spoon gravy over warm biscuits.
