Homemade Sausage Gravy Recipe

An old-fashioned homemade sausage gravy recipe, this one is flavorful and foolproof. Serve over my award-winning (and easy!) biscuit recipe.Recipe includes a how-to video!

Ingredients

  • 1 lb pork breakfast sausage (I recommend using sage flavored (455g))
  • ¼ cup all-purpose (plain) flour ((31g))
  • 2 ½ cups whole milk ((590ml))
  • ⅛ teaspoon crushed red pepper (optional)
  • salt and freshly cracked black pepper (to taste)

Directions

  1. 1

    Place sausage in a skillet over medium/high heat. 

  2. 2

    Use a spatula or wooden spoon to break up and crumble sausage as it cooks, cooking until completely browned and no pink remains. Do not drain your skillet.

  3. 3

    Sprinkle flour evenly over the sausage crumbles. Stir frequently until flour is absorbed (about 1 minute).

  4. 4

    Slowly drizzle the milk into your skillet, stirring as you pour. Add crushed red pepper, if using.

  5. 5

    Continue to cook, stirring frequently until mixture is thickened and desired consistency is reached.

  6. 6

    Add salt and pepper to taste and serve warm over homemade biscuits!
