Biscuits and Sausage Gravy

Biscuits and gravy is one of those foods that just reminds me of home. My dad used to make this for us on the weekends. When I first met Hubby, he had no idea what biscuits and gravy were. Crazy Northeasterner! He fell in love the first time he had my dad’s biscuits and gravy. And it’s so simple to throw together when you’re half asleep on a Saturday or Sunday morning.

I like to use the flaky buttermilk store bought biscuits. You could definitely make your own from scratch if you wanted. We also like our gravy pretty thick. Feel free to add more milk to thin out your gravy if you prefer.

    I read this while eating a bagel from the same recipe (with molasses even, because I’m out of barley malt syrup)! I love these bagels so, so much. I usually just eat them with butter on one side and cream cheese on the other, but the chocolate peanut butter banana combo sounds amazing.

    Wow, I’d never think to make my own bagels. They sounds (and look) incredible!

    Jen, these bagels look gorgeous! I’ve only attempted homemade bagels once, and they were a major fail. I must redeem myself, and this sounds like the perfect recipe with which to do it.

    They are so cute! I have never thought to make my own bagels. . . it’s a little intimidating!

    So puffy and cute! Bagels are something I would like to try to make at home too. I have definitely seen the barley malt syrup at WF.

    I read in The Bread Baker’s Apprentice that if you can’t find malt syrup, just leave it out. Most bread flours contain some of it anyway 🙂 I didn’t have any, so left it out for my kaiser rolls – still tasted wonderful
