Buttermilk Biscuits Eggs And Gravy Recipes

THE BEST BUTTERMILK BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to combine well.
• Use a cheese grater to grate the butter into the flour mixture. Then use a pastry cutter or a fork to combine the butter and flour mixture well (you can use a fork for the whole process but using a cheese grater first works super well - I recommend it). The goal is to have pea-sized pieces of butter mixed into your flour mixture.
• Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add the egg and buttermilk. Use a fork to whisk the two together and slowly bring in the flour mixture.
• Stir until the biscuits just come together, taking care not to over mix.
• Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and finish combining by lightly kneading the dough together.
• Roll the dough into a 2-inch-thick slab. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out as many biscuits as you can and place them on the prepared sheet, 1 inch apart.
• Re-roll the dough and cut more biscuits until you have used all of the dough, adding a bit of flour to your work surface and rolling pin as needed. You should end up with 9-12 biscuits.
• Bake the biscuits for 15-18 minutes until the tops are very golden brown.
• Remove from the oven and serve right away.

COUNTRY GRAVY

Steps:

• Cook sausage or bacon reserving drippings. Add drippings to frying pan along with flour and mix well with spoon. Cook this until well blended and begins to boil in pan.
• Add milk all at once and cook until boils. Boil for about five minutes until reaches thickness desired. Watch closely because gravy will boil over on stove if you don't continue stirring. Add salt and pepper to taste. Can crumble sausage or bacon into gravy if desired.

SOUTHERN FRIED EGGS OVER BUTTERMILK BISCUITS WITH SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Crack 4 eggs into skillet, and cook, uncovered, until whites are set, about 2 minutes. (If you prefer to cook your yolks further, cover skillet.) Transfer to a plate. Repeat. Arrange 1 or 2 biscuits on each plate. Top with gravy. Place 1 egg on each biscuit. Season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce.
