Ingredients:
1 lb sausage
2 cups milk
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
8 biscuits (pre-made or homemade)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground sage
Optional: 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Sausage:
Start by cooking the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until it’s browned. As the sausage cooks, break it into smaller pieces with a wooden spoon or spatula. This ensures even cooking and a consistent texture throughout the gravy.
2. Make the Gravy:
Once the sausage is fully cooked, sprinkle the flour over the meat. Stir the flour into the sausage, letting it cook for about 2 minutes. This step is crucial as it allows the flour to absorb the sausage fat and eliminates any raw flour taste. Gradually pour in the milk while stirring constantly. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let the gravy simmer until it thickens, which should take around 5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and ground sage. For those who love a bit of heat, add the crushed red pepper flakes.
3. Preheat the Oven:
While the gravy is simmering, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This temperature is perfect for baking the biscuits to a golden brown while allowing the gravy to bubble up and meld with the biscuits.
4. Assemble the Pie:
Arrange the biscuits in a single layer in a 9×13 inch baking dish. You can use pre-made biscuits for convenience, or if you’re feeling adventurous, whip up a batch of homemade biscuits. Pour the thickened sausage gravy over the biscuits, ensuring each one is well-coated. The gravy will soak into the biscuits during baking, creating a deliciously moist and flavorful pie.
5. Bake to Perfection:
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through. The aroma filling your kitchen will be absolutely irresistible, a sure sign that a delectable meal is on its way.
