Biscuits For Biscuits And Gravy Recipes

Steps:

• Bake biscuits according to package directions.
• Meanwhile, cook sausage in large skillet over medium heat 5-6 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring frequently. Stir in flour. Gradually add milk; cook until mixture comes to a boil and thickens, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Split biscuits in half. Place 2 halves on each of 8 plates; top with about 1/3 cup gravy.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine cake flour and high-gluten flour in bowl of a stand mixer. Add vegetable shortening, sugar, baking powder and salt. Slowly add buttermilk and mix on low speed with a dough hook for 2 minutes.
• Portion out 2 dozen 4-ounce biscuits. Bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve hot and fresh with Gravy or as a side.
• Cook breakfast sausage in a large braising pan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until fully cooked, approximately 15 minutes.
• Add butter and let melt. Add flour and cook, stirring slowly, to make a roux. Add milk and cook, continuously whisking, to thicken the gravy. Add chicken base, thyme and pepper and cook, whisking, until gravy thickens, 4 to 5 minutes. Serve as a side or over biscuits.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees.
• Prepare the biscuits: In a medium bowl, using a wooden spoon, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Mix together buttermilk and yogurt, add to the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
• Pour melted butter into an 8-inch glass baking dish and place dough on top of melted butter. Using your hands, spread dough evenly across the dish until it touches the sides. (If the dough starts to stick to your fingers, use a little butter on your fingertips to keep it from sticking.)
• Run a knife through the dough to score 9 equal squares. Bake until golden brown at the bottom, 20 to 25 minutes. Brush with more butter on top and set aside.
• While the biscuits bake, make the sausage gravy: Heat a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned, about 10 minutes, stirring and breaking up any large pieces with a wooden spoon or spatula.
• Add the onion to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Stir the flour into the sausage mixture and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until it blends into the sausage fat. (You want to make sure it's cooked enough that the flour taste goes away, but not so cooked that it's toasted.)
• Slowly add the chicken stock and bay leaf, stirring the sausage mixture until combined. Continue cooking for about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add the milk and continue stirring. When the gravy begins to simmer, lower the heat to medium-low and cook for 7 minutes, stirring often, until thickened.
• Add black pepper, paprika, cayenne and nutmeg (if using); stir to mix well. Add parsley and sage. Remove the bay leaf. Taste and adjust seasoning.
• Remove the cooked biscuits by cutting them along the scoring lines and using a spatula to pop them out. Slice the biscuits to split them horizontally, then serve the sausage gravy over the open halves.
