Our biscuits and gravy recipe is delicious and classic. I have always loved Southern comfort food and this recipe hits the nail on the head. It is so simple to make and is great for a snack, lunch, or dinner. The other great thing about biscuits and gravy is it is very economical. I serve it up about once a month and it compliments any kind of vegetable really well.

Instructions
Making the Biscuits
-
Add the flour and salt to a mixing bowl or food process. Mix or pulse until combined.
-
Add in the butter and mix or pulse until a crumbly mixture forms.
-
Pour half the butter milk in and mix or pulse. Pour the other half in and pulse until a dough forms.
-
Using an ice cream scoop or two spoons, scoop up some of the mixture and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Leave a bit of space in between scoops.
-
Bake at 400 degrees F or 200 C for 15 to 17 minutes until they are cooked through and browned.
Making the Sausage Gravy
-
Crumble the sausages onto a plate.
-
Place them in a pan over medium high heat and fry until no longer pink and cooked through.
-
Add in half the flour and stir until the sausages are coated.
-
Add in the other half of the flour and stir. The sausage will begin to appear a bit too dry and that is what you want.
-
Pour the milk in and season with salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, stir, and simmer until the gravy thickens a bit more.
If it gets too thick, add a bit more milk in. -
Remove the biscuits from the oven, pour the gravy over, and enjoy your classic drop biscuits with sausage gravy.

I use the honey garlic sausage in my recipe. You can, however, use any type of sausage you like. For example, Italian or breakfast sausages work really well too.
