Time 45m

Yield 8 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper, optional
3 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
1 tablespoon shortening
3/4 cup 2% milk

1 pound bulk maple pork sausage
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 cups 2% milk
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground sage
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and, if desired, pepper. Cut in butter and shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk; stir just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 8-10 times., Pat or roll dough to 1-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-in. biscuit cutter. Place 1 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 15-17 minutes., Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink, 6-8 minutes, breaking into crumbles. Stir in flour until blended; gradually stir in milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until sauce is thickened, 4-6 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients. Serve with warm biscuits.

I used a gluten-free flour blend to make the biscuits, and they turned out great. This recipe is a great option for people with gluten sensitivities.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used veggie sausage to make the gravy. It was just as delicious as the traditional sausage gravy.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover sausage. I had some leftover breakfast sausage, and I used it to make the gravy. It turned out great!
