How to Make Southern Biscuits And Gravy
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt for the biscuits.
- Cut in shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add milk, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 2-3 times.
- Pat or roll dough to about 1-inch thickness.
- Cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter or knife.
- Place biscuits on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While biscuits are baking, cook sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through.
- Drain off any excess grease.
- Sprinkle flour over the cooked sausage; cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Gradually whisk in milk, stirring until smooth and thickened. Add pepper, salt, butter, sugar, and vanilla extract.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until gravy has thickened to your desired consistency.
- Serve hot gravy over freshly baked biscuits.
