Method
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cut in the cold, cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the buttermilk and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface, knead gently, and pat to about 1-inch thick. Cut out biscuits and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned. Drain excess fat, leaving about 2 tablespoons in the pan.
- Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage and stir to combine. Cook for about 1 minute.
- Gradually add the milk, stirring constantly until the gravy thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- Season the gravy with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes if desired.
- Split the baked biscuits in half and ladle the sausage gravy over the top. Serve immediately.
