Biscuits

Optional (for Sausage Gravy)

Method

Make the Biscuits

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the milk until just combined.

  2. 2

    Shape and Bake

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently. Roll out to about 1-inch thickness and cut out biscuits using a round cutter. Place biscuits on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.

Prepare the Mushroom Gravy

  1. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook until translucent, then add garlic and mushrooms, cooking until mushrooms are tender.

  2. 4

    Make the Gravy

    Stir in the vegetable broth and soy sauce. Bring to a simmer. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with a little water to create a slurry, then add to the skillet, stirring until thickened. Season with black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes to taste.

Optional for Sausage Gravy

  1. 5

    Cook the Sausage (if using)

    In the same skillet, cook the sausage until browned and cooked through before adding the mushrooms and following the gravy steps.
