This Sausage Gravy and Biscuits recipe is a breakfast classic! Let me show you how easy it is to make!
I’m going to let y’all in on a little secret …. Sausage Gravy and Biscuits just happens to be my favorite breakfast – ever. EVER.
While it might not seem like ground-breaking news, I only mention it because I have told y’all numerous times that I’m not really a fan of breakfast and only recently, have I had to force myself to be a regular breakfast eater. As much as I would love to eat biscuits with sausage gravy every day, it’s just not happening. I make good choices (usually!!) like my Peanut Butter Granola, Strawberry Vanilla Overnight Oatmeal, or Peach-Banana Oatmeal Smoothie.
However, on Sunday mornings, all bets are off and my family goes all out. We make some of our breakfast favorites like loaded omelets, French toast, breakfast burritos, and yes, occasionally we make Sausage Gravy and Biscuits. Ya gotta live a little … amiright?! While I’m not as crazy about some of the other stuff like the rest of my family, I definitely get excited for Sausage Gravy and Biscuits. It’s just good ol’ comfort food to me!
Through the years, I have heard so many people say they are too intimidated to make gravy. I try to tell them otherwise. They think those pouches of powder are “easier” …. and I’m here to prove y’all wrong. You can make sausage gravy FROM SCRATCH and it’s soooo easy, you’ll want to make it all of the time! If you want to be real fancy, top it all off with some chopped parsley …. that’s what my kiddos call the parsley on the top – fancy!! 😀 At least they give me a few laughs, eh?!
I’ve included a link to my homemade biscuits too if you want to make those to go with the sausage gravy! Enjoy, y’all!

there is a recipe, that uses Bisquck as a base, and then sour cream & 7-up, and butter. I swear, that recipe for biscuits is just about good enough to make ya wanna slap ya momma! it is the best biscuits I have ever made myself actually….. so…don't feel bad at all about using Bisquick…. 7-up biscuits: 2 cups Bisquick 1/2 cup sour cream 1/2 cup 7-up 1/4 cup melted butter Preheat oven to 450. Cut sour cream into biscuit mix, add 7-Up. Makes a very soft dough. Sprinkle additional biscuit mix on board or table and pat dough out. Melt 1/4 cup butter in a 9 inch square pan. Place cut biscuits in pan and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. ( I ma the as a drop biscuit, with a little more ix & roll & put into the butter… soft as n angel wing!
