Instructions
- To make the biscuits, preheat the oven to 400° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda, pulsing a few times to mix. Add the butter and pulse until it’s the size of small peas. Pour in the milk, pulsing, until incorporated. Pulse 5 more times, then transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface. Form dough into a ball, ensuring it is well mixed, sprinkling with flour as needed. Roll the dough out to 1 1/4-inch thick, then use a 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter to make 8 biscuits, re-kneading and re-rolling the scraps as necessary.
- Arrange the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake until lightly browned, 12 to 14 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the sausage gravy: In a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pork mixture and cook, breaking it up with a spoon or spatula, until no longer pink, 5 to 6 minutes. Sprinkle in the flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in the milk, increase the heat to medium-high to bubble, and thicken the gravy. Reduce heat immediately to bring to a gentle simmer, whisking to smooth any lumps, until completely thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add more flour as needed to achieve desired consistency. Remove from the heat and stir in the maple syrup.
- Split the biscuits and arrange on plates. Spoon the gravy on top, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve.
