Use the slow cooker's "Keep Warm" function to prepare your gravy slowly while you focus on other parts of the meal. Sauté the sausage in the slow cooker before adding your flour and milk for a smooth, creamy gravy that stays warm and ready to serve.
Instant Pot's "Saute" function to brown your sausage and prepare the gravy base. Once ready, add the rest of the ingredients and use the "Pressure Cook" function for quick results, all while keeping the gravy rich and flavorful in half the time.
Use the air fryer's convection heat to cook biscuits perfectly golden and flaky. Set it to 350°F for about 8-10 minutes, checking halfway through for even browning, and enjoy biscuits with a crisp exterior and soft interior, ready to be topped with gravy.
Making the perfect biscuit can be challenging, as it requires a balance between baking powder, salt, butter or shortening, and flour. It's important to not overmix the dough, use chilled butter or shortening, and work with cold ingredients to create a flaky and tender texture. Adding a bit of buttermilk or milk to the mixture can give the biscuits a creamy and tart flavor that goes well with the gravy.
Gravy is a meat-based sauce that is served over the biscuits. Getting the gravy right can be a challenge as it needs to be rich, creamy, and flavorful. Browning the meat, using the right amount of flour, and choosing spices are some things to consider while making the gravy. Adding breakfast sausage or bacon to the gravy can give it more texture, flavor, and color.
Gravy should be rich and thick enough to have a good drip over the biscuits, but too much flour will make it lumpy or thick, so it's important to add just enough flour or cornstarch to create the desired consistency. You can also mix in some milk, cream, or broth to thin the gravy out or adjust the seasoning.
Timing the preparation of the biscuits and gravy can be a challenge as they cook at their own pace. Starting with the gravy while the biscuits are cooking is often recommended - it's important to keep an eye on the gravy while it simmers. Keeping the biscuits warm in the oven after baking can also help to keep them fresh for serving.
Serving Biscuits and Gravy can be challenging, as over-saucing the biscuits can make them too soggy and less appetizing. It's important to serve the gravy in pourable portions, allowing the diners to add more sauce to the biscuit as needed. Grated cheese or dried herbs can also be added as garnish to provide another layer of flavor and texture.
