Biscuits

Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Cut in Butter
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix it until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add Buttermilk
Pour in the buttermilk and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix.

Shape Biscuits
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times. Pat it into a rectangle about 1-inch thick. Cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter or a glass.

Bake the Biscuits
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.

Cook Sausage
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it up with a spoon until browned and fully cooked.

Make Roux
Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage and stir to combine, cooking for about 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.

Add Milk
Gradually pour in the milk while stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

Season the Gravy
Stir in thyme, salt, and black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.
