Ingredients
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tablespoon baking powder
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
– 3/4 cup cold milk
– 8 slices bacon, cooked until crispy and crumbled
– 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
– 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
– 2 cups milk
– 1 pound pork sausage, cooked and crumbled
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. – Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. – In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. – Stir in the cold milk until a shaggy dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead 2-3 times.
4. – Pat the dough into a 1/2-inch thick round. Cut out 6 biscuits using a 3-inch biscuit cutter, pressing straight down without twisting.
5. – Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown.
6. – In a medium saucepan, melt the 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute.
7. – Gradually whisk in the milk and cook, stirring frequently, until the gravy thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the cooked sausage and black pepper.
8. – To assemble, split the biscuits in half and top each bottom half with crumbled bacon. Ladle the sausage gravy over the biscuits.
Notes
For a heartier meal, serve the Bacon Biscuit and Gravy Volcano with a side of scrambled eggs or roasted potatoes. You can also use different types of sausage, such as breakfast or Italian, to vary the flavor.
