A Comforting Classic That’s Easy to Make

Get ready for a taste of home with this creamy, comforting dish that is sure to warm your heart and fill your belly. Imagine waking up on a Sunday morning to the tantalizing smell of savory sausage wafting through your kitchen, and the satisfaction of knowing that breakfast is about to be something truly special. Pioneer Woman Sausage Gravy is just that—the ideal blend of rich flavors, a hearty texture, and an unforgettable taste that can easily turn breakfast into a special occasion.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound breakfast sausage hot or mild
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 to 4 cups whole milk more to taste
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, crumble and cook the sausage until it's browned and nicely cooked through. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Add Flour: Once the sausage is cooked, sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir well to combine. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
  • Pour in Milk: Gradually pour in the whole milk, stirring constantly to incorporate it into the mixture. This is where the magic happens!
  • Thicken the Sauce: Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the gravy thickens, typically around 5-10 minutes. If it gets too thick, feel free to add more milk until you reach your desired consistency.
  • Season: Finally, taste your gravy and add salt and pepper as needed to enhance the flavors.
  • Serve: Pour the delicious sausage gravy generously over biscuits, toast, or whatever your heart desires!
