Ingredients
- Breakfast sausage – 1 pound
- All-purpose flour – ¼ cup
- Whole milk – 3 cups
- Butter – 2 tablespoons
- Salt – ½ teaspoon
- Black pepper – 1 teaspoon
- Garlic powder – ¼ teaspoon
Instructions
Cook the Sausage
- Place skillet on medium heat. Add sausage. Break it apart. Cook until brown and fully done.
Add Butter
- Add butter to cooked sausage. Stir gently until butter melts and coats sausage pieces evenly.
Sprinkle Flour
- Sprinkle flour over sausage. Stir well. Cook for one minute to remove raw flour taste.
Pour Milk Slowly
- Pour milk slowly while stirring. This prevents lumps and helps gravy turn smooth.
Season the Gravy
- Add salt, black pepper and garlic powder. Stir well until seasoning mixes evenly.
Simmer and Thicken
- Let gravy simmer on low heat. Stir often. Cook until thick and creamy.
Taste and Adjust
- Taste gravy carefully. Add more salt or pepper if needed. Turn off heat.
Notes
- Use full-fat milk for best creaminess.
- Stir constantly to avoid lumps.
- Do not rush the thickening process.
- Add extra milk if gravy feels too thick.
- Serve hot for best taste and texture.
