Description

Classic homemade sausage gravy made with pork breakfast sausage, whole milk, and simple pantry staples. Creamy Southern comfort served over warm biscuits for a cozy breakfast.


Ingredients

  • 15 oz. pork breakfast sausage, casings removed
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 ½ cups whole milk
  • Homemade or store-bought biscuits, for serving


Instructions

  1. Brown sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it into crumbles, until fully cooked. Do not drain fat.
  2. Sprinkle flour over cooked sausage and stir to coat evenly. Cook for 1–2 minutes.
  3. Gradually whisk in milk, starting with a small amount to create a smooth paste.
  4. Add remaining milk slowly while stirring continuously.
  5. Simmer over medium-low heat for 5–7 minutes until thickened, stirring frequently.
  6. Adjust seasoning if desired and serve hot over biscuits.

Notes

  • Gravy should coat the back of a spoon when ready.
  • If too thick, add milk a tablespoon at a time.
  • If too thin, simmer a few minutes longer.
  • Stir frequently to prevent scorching on the bottom of the pan.
