Classic Country Biscuits and Sausage Gravy

Making homemade biscuits is a breeze, and they are exquisite when freshly baked – warm and flaky straight from the oven. With our Homemade Biscuits recipe, you can prepare the dough the night before and bake the biscuits while crafting the sausage gravy for a speedy 15-minute meal.

To create the dough, you’ll need a pastry blender to combine the butter with the flour, or you can pulse them together in a food processor. Once the ingredients are mixed, take care not to overmix.

Pro Tip

For the finest biscuits, ensure your butter and half-and-half are well chilled. You can create half-and-half by blending equal parts of milk and heavy cream. It may sound peculiar, but it works perfectly when the ingredients are measured correctly.
