Biscuits and Gravy — Print Recipe

Flaky, golden buttermilk biscuits split open and smothered in a thick, peppery turkey sausage cream gravy — the ultimate Southern comfort breakfast.

Ingredients

1 Preheat oven to 230°C (450°F). Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in cold butter until pea-sized.
2 Stir in buttermilk until just combined. Turn out, fold 3-4 times, pat to 1-inch thick. Cut rounds. Bake 12-14 min until golden.
3 Brown turkey sausage in a skillet, breaking into crumbles, about 6 min.
4 Sprinkle flour over the sausage, stir and cook 1 min.
5 Slowly pour in milk, stirring constantly. Add sage, salt, and generous black pepper. Simmer until thick, about 5 min.
6 Split biscuits open, ladle gravy generously over each. Serve immediately.
