Ingredients
For the gravy:
- 1 pound bulk breakfast sausage
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 2 cups milk
- salt and pepper to taste
For the tomatoes:
- 4 large ripe tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons herbs de provence
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- dash of salt and pepper
For serving:
- 8 buttermilk biscuits (use frozen, refrigerated, or use my recipe for homemade)
Instructions
Bake the tomatoes while you prepare the gravy:
- To bake the tomatoes, preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Slice the tomatoes into thick, approximately 1/2” slices.
- Place on a baking sheet drizzled with half the olive oil. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the tomato slices and sprinkle with Herbs de Provence, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Bake for about 10 minutes or until softened and just beginning to brown.
To make the sausage gravy:
- Add the sausage to a large skillet over medium high heat. Break the sausage up as it cooks using a wooden spoon or potato masher. Cook until no pink color remains.
- Sprinkle over the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Gradually add the milk, stirring constantly, and cook until thickened.
- Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.
To serve:
- Split the biscuits and place on a plate.
- Serve the gravy over warm biscuits with the tomato slices on the side.
Notes
- For short-term storage, keep leftover gravy in an airtight container in the refrigerator; it'll stay fresh for up to 3 days. Biscuits should be stored separately in a zip-top bag or another airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 days to maintain their texture.
- For longer storage, freeze the gravy in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Biscuits can also be frozen, wrapped individually in foil, and then placed in a freezer bag. When you're ready to enjoy, thaw the gravy in the refrigerator overnight. Reheat it on the stove over low heat, adding a splash of milk if it's too thick. Biscuits may be warmed in the oven at 350 degrees until heated through, about 10 minutes.
