| BISCUITS AND GRAVY | |
|
BISCUITS: 2 c. sifted all-purpose flour 1 tbsp. sugar 4 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 c. shortening 1 beaten egg 1/3 c. milk Sift together dry ingredients; cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine egg and milk; add to flour mixture all at once. Stir until dough follows fork around bowl. Turn out on lightly floured surface; knead gently with heel of hand about 20 strokes. Roll dough to 3/4 inch thickness. Dip 2 inch biscuit cutter in flour; cut straight down through dough - no twisting. Place on ungreased baking sheet (3/4 inch apart for crusty biscuits, close together for soft sides). If desired, chill 1-3 hours. Bake in a very hot oven (450 degrees) 10-14 minutes or until golden brown. SAUSAGE GRAVY: 1/2 lb. bulk sausage 4 tbsp. all-purpose flour 2 1/2 c. milk Salt and pepper to taste Cook sausage, crumbling well. Pour off all but 2-3 tablespoons of grease. Sprinkle flour on top. Increase heat to high and cook, stirring, until flour starts to brown. Add milk, stirring constantly and continue cooking until gravy thickens. Add salt and pepper. Serve over hot biscuits or toast. | |

Ashley (Cambodia) says:
My first time making biscuits! So easy and everything turned out well. I thought my gravy was going to be a flop, but I just kept stirring and it got thick after some time.

I just prepared your recipe for the biscuits and sausage gravy. WOW!!!! My family raved at my first attempt at "home-made" gravy (as opposed to package).. I was pressed for time so had to use Grands biscuits, but next time will attempt the full recipe. Thanks for starting off our Sunday morning with a bang!!

I appreciate the clear directions, especially for the biscuits. Most other recipes say to use store-bought or ready mixes. Thanks!!!

I was wondering if you could use bacon instead of sausage? Thanks!

Hi Amanda,
You can, it's your biscuits and gravy! It will be different and the gravy won't have the meaty bits as it would if you'd used sausage.
