Ingredients
Scale
Sausage Gravy:
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage (mild or spicy)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups whole milk
- Salt and black pepper (to taste)
Biscuit Crust:
- 1 batch biscuit dough (homemade or pre-made, about 8 biscuits)
- Optional: Shredded cheese, sautéed vegetables, or fresh herbs for layering
Instructions
Step 1: Make the Sausage Gravy
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the sausage until browned, breaking it into crumbles.
- Leave about 2 tablespoons of grease in the skillet, then stir in the butter and flour to create a roux.
- Gradually whisk in the milk and simmer until the gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 2: Prepare the Biscuit Crust
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Roll out or arrange biscuit dough to cover the bottom of a pie dish. Optionally, parbake the crust for 5-7 minutes to prevent sogginess.
Step 3: Assemble the Pie
- Pour the sausage gravy over the biscuit crust, spreading evenly. Add cheese or vegetables if desired.
- Top with another layer of biscuit dough, brushed with melted butter for a golden finish.
Step 4: Bake the Pie
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
- Let the pie cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
