Creamy Biscuits and Gravy

Creamy Biscuits and Gravy
  • Biscuits:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • Gravy:
  • 1 (16 ounce) package bulk pork breakfast sausage (such as Jimmy Dean®)
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste


  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  2. Whisk 2 cups flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together in a bowl; cut shortening into flour mixture with a pastry cutter until mixture is crumbly. Mix in egg and milk until incorporated. Turn dough out onto a well-floured work surface and knead for 1 minute.
  3. Roll dough out to a thickness of 3/4 to 1-inch thick, cut with a biscuit cutter, and place biscuits onto prepared baking sheet. Brush tops of biscuits with melted butter.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until biscuits are golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
  5. Cook and stir sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and crumbly, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease. Stir 1/4 cup butter into sausage until butter has melted and mix in 1/4 cup flour until thoroughly combined. Pour evaporated milk and water into sausage mixture, bring gravy to a simmer, and reduce heat to low; simmer gravy until thickened, about 5 minutes. Season gravy with salt and black pepper to taste.
  6. Serve biscuits with sausage gravy.
