Sausage Gravy Ingredients

1 pound breakfast sausage
3 ounces cream cheese
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
Optional: salt and pepper to taste (the sausage often provides enough salt; I used only pepper)

Instructions

The biscuit recipe can be prepared separately while you make the gravy. Follow your biscuit recipe so the biscuits are hot and ready when the gravy finishes.

Sausage Gravy Instructions

Brown the sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks. Do not drain the fat—this adds flavor to the gravy.
Add the cream cheese to the hot sausage and stir until it melts and blends with the meat.
Pour in the heavy cream, raise the heat slightly, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. This usually takes about 5 minutes on medium heat.
If you prefer a thicker gravy, whisk together the water and xanthan gum, then slowly add it to the simmering gravy until you reach your desired consistency. Skip this step if the gravy is already thick enough.
Season with pepper (and salt if needed) to taste. Keep the gravy warm until ready to serve.
Split a warm biscuit, spoon the sausage gravy over the top, and serve immediately.

Tips and Serving Ideas

These biscuits and gravy are excellent on their own, but add scrambled or fried eggs for a heartier meal.
Leftover gravy will keep 3–4 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Reheat gravy gently on the stovetop or in the microwave, adding a splash of heavy cream to loosen it if it has thickened.
Serve this gravy over biscuits, chaffles, eggs, cauliflower mash, or a slice of keto bread for variety.
