Biscuits and Gravy!

I Love to get biscuits and gravy when we go out to breakfast. E does not like to go out to breakfast. He can't stand to spend money on something he can make better at home. So I tried the Pepper Gravy recipe I got from my friend V and added sausage or just cooked sausage patties. SUPER DELICIOUS! I found an excellent biscuit recipe and tweeked it a bit. It was so easy I don't know why I didn't try it before.

Buttermilk Biscuits

Makes about 15

4 Cups All-purpose Flour
4 Tsp Baking Powder
1 Tsp Baking Soda
3/4 Tsp Salt
1 Tsp Sugar
2 Cups Buttermilk
1 Cup (2 sticks) Butter, cut into pieces
1. Preheat oven to 375'. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
2. Add butter, use a pastry blended until the largest pieces are the size of peas.
3. Add buttermilk, and stir just until mixture comes together; the batter will be sticky. Use a 1/2 cup scoop, a large cookie or ice cream scoop, to scoop the dough onto the cookie sheets.
4. Bake until lightly browned, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from oven; cool on a wire rack. Serve warm.










BLACK PEPPER GRAVY
1/4 Cup Butter
1/4 Cup Flour
4 Cup Milk (I like whole milk)

Melt the butter in a saucepan. Whisk in flour and saute until light brown. Add milk whisking constantly. Add salt and pepper.
