Biscuits and Gravy Bombs
Description
This recipe uses ground pork sausage cooked and thickened into a creamy gravy with flour, milk, and seasoning. Canned buttermilk biscuits are rolled thin, filled with a generous amount of the cooled sausage gravy, and sealed into pockets. These are arranged seam-side down on a skillet or baking dish and baked until nicely browned.
An optional topping of melted butter mixed with garlic salt and parsley can be brushed on before baking to add flavor and a golden finish. The finished bombs offer a contrast between the soft, flaky biscuit exterior and the savory, saucy interior.
These are served warm as a hearty breakfast treat or brunch item, providing a convenient way to enjoy classic biscuits and gravy in a portable form.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork sausage
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 ½ cups whole milk room temperature, 612.5 g
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 can buttermilk biscuits not flaky, 8-count; Southern homestyle
- parsley for garnish
Garlic Butter Topping (Optional)
- ¼ cup butter melted, ½ stick, 57 g
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 teaspoon parsley fresh
Instructions
- In a skillet over medium heat, brown pork sausage until it reaches an internal temperature of 160°F.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and add flour to the skillet. Stir to combine and slowly pour in the milk. Stir frequently until the mixture thickens (about 10-12 minutes). Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder and set aside to cool slightly.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and prepare a 12-inch oven-safe skillet by spraying it with nonstick cooking spray.
- Remove the biscuits from the can and place them on a clean work surface. Using a rolling pin, flatten each biscuit to about ⅛-inch thickness.
- Place 2 heaping tablespoons of the sausage mixture on top of each flattened biscuit. Pinch the edges of the biscuit together to seal the mixture inside.
- Place the sealed biscuits, seam-side down, in the prepared skillet. Optional: brush the tops with a mixture of melted butter, garlic salt, and parsley.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm, topped with remaining gravy and garnished with parsley.
