Sausage Gravy Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the Sausage

    In a large skillet over medium heat, crumble and cook the breakfast sausage until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Flour

    Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage and stir to combine, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until the flour is lightly browned.

  3. 3

    Pour in Milk

    Gradually pour in the milk while continuously stirring to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Season the Gravy

    Add black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes to taste. Continue to stir and cook until the gravy thickens, about 5-10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the sausage gravy over biscuits, toast, or your choice of sides.
