Ingredients

Sausage Gravy:

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 log package sausage (recommended: Jimmy Dean)
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • Salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Biscuits:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup cold butter
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • All-purpose flour, for dusting
  • Cream, for glazing

For the sausage gravy:

Directions

In a large heavy bottom pot melt the tablespoon of butter and brown the sausage for about 5 minutes. Add the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Once at a simmer, add the hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce and maple syrup. Simmer the gravy for 15 minutes and season with salt and pepper, to taste.

For the biscuits:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

In a bowl sift together the dry ingredients. Add the butter and incorporate the flour into it until the texture is consistent. Pour the milk into the flour mixture and mix with a fork until the dough begins to come together.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll out until it's about 1-inch thick. Cut the dough vertically and then horizontally, yielding approximately 15 square biscuits. Lay the biscuits out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Glaze the top of each biscuit with a little bit of cream and place the sheet in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the biscuits turn golden in color.

Assemble by placing a biscuit on a plate and covering it with about 1/2 a cup of the sausage gravy.

    I make this recipe for my son about once a month. He loves it. The biscuit recipe is definitely the highlight because of the taste and relative ease of preparation.

    I only gave it a three because I did not make the gravy. I was looking for a biscuit recipe. This biscuit turned out very good. Did not rise. Extremely buttery. It was so buttery, that I didn't even want to put my own sausage gravy on it because it would have been too much, too rich, too much fat.

    These would be good with come jelly on them or just by themselves. Might try 1/2-n-1/2 with shortening next time. (disclaimer - I didn't read any previous reviews
