The Pioneer Woman’s Sausage Gravy
This classic sausage gravy recipe from The Pioneer Woman is a rich, savory breakfast staple. Creamy and flavorful, it’s perfect over warm biscuits for a hearty start to your day.
Ingredients
- 1 pound breakfast sausage hot or mild
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 3-4 cups whole milk more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper more to taste
- 12 cooked biscuits warmed, for serving
Instructions
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Tear the sausage into small pieces and add to the skillet. Cook until browned and no longer pink, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Sprinkle half of the flour over the cooked sausage and stir to combine. Gradually add the remaining flour, stirring constantly. Cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
- Slowly pour in the milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the gravy thickens, about 10-12 minutes. Add additional milk if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Sprinkle in seasoned salt and freshly ground black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Let cook for 2-3 more minutes to blend the flavors.
- Split warm biscuits in half and generously spoon the sausage gravy over them. Garnish with freshly ground black pepper or chopped parsley if desired.
Notes
For a spicier gravy, use hot sausage or add a pinch of cayenne pepper. Leftover gravy can be refrigerated and reheated gently over low heat with a splash of milk.
