Ingredients
- 1 lb breakfast sausage
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 cups whole milk
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (for biscuits)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt (for biscuits)
- 6 tbsp cold butter, cubed
- 1/2 cup cold milk (for biscuits)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a pie dish.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and crumbled.
- Sprinkle in the 1/4 cup flour and stir well, cooking for 1 minute to remove raw flour taste.
- Gradually add 2 1/2 cups milk, stirring constantly, and simmer until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
- For the biscuit dough, mix 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt in a bowl.
- Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add 1/2 cup cold milk and stir just until a dough forms.
- Press about two-thirds of the biscuit dough into the bottom and sides of the pie dish.
- Pour sausage gravy into the crust. Flatten and place remaining dough over the top, sealing edges.
- Bake for 35 minutes or until top is golden and filling is bubbling. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
Notes
- Add shredded cheddar to the gravy for extra richness.
- Use spicy sausage for a bit of heat.
- Mix in sautéed onions or mushrooms for added flavor.
- Make mini pies in ramekins for individual servings.
