Recipes BISCUITS AND GRAVY WITH MAPLE SAUSAGE GRAVY | Easy Food & Drink

INGREDIENTS

Biscuits:
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) cold butter
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
Gravy:
• 16 ounces ground turkey sausage
• 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
• 2 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup

INSTRUCTIONS

Biscuits:
1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
2. In a stand mixer with paddle attachment or a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well with a whisk or fork.
3. Cut the butter into little small pieces and add to flour mixture.
4. Mix the flour and butter together until the butter resembles coarse crumbs.
5. Add the milk and mix together just until combined, being careful not to over mix. Knead the dough with your hands 8 to 10 times, then turn the dough out onto a floured counter or cutting board.
6. Pat the dough out flat with your hands until it’s about 1/2 inch thick. If the dough sticks to your fingers, sprinkle a little flour on the top and bottom. If it’s too dry (not holding together), add a splash or two of milk or water.
7. Using a cookie/biscuit cutter or upside-down drinking glass, cut out biscuit rounds. (I used a 2 5/8 inch cutter.)Gently press together the remaining dough and continue to cut biscuits, making sure not to handle the dough too much. (I yielded 11 biscuits. So you may have one leftover to munch on!)
8. Place the biscuits on parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until lightly browned. (If using a bigger biscuit cutter, you will need to bake for longer.)
Gravy:
9. While biscuits bake, in a large sauté pan, brown turkey sausage. Once sausage is brown, stir in flour. Cook one minute,
10. Slowly whisk in milk. Season with salt, pepper and maple syrup. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer until thickened, about ten minutes.
11. Season to taste with salt and pepper, if needed.
12. Serve immediately.
