Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add butter and cut in using pastry knife or fingertips until coarse crumbs remain. Add buttermilk and mix until rough dough forms.
Pat dough into a rectangle about 1/4-inch in thickness. Fold dough over itself three times to create layers. Press dough into a 1-inch-thick slab and, using a round cookie cutter or sharp knife, cut biscuits out of dough.
Brush biscuit tops with heavy cream and bake on parchment-lined baking sheet until golden-brown and flaky, about 12-15 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Heat sausage in large skillet over medium heat, breaking up into small crumbles with wooden spoon, until sausage is cooked through and begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Remove sausage from skillet. Set aside in a separate bowland keep warm.
Add butter to pan and whisk in flour. Cook until lightly golden and a roux forms. Gradually whisk in milk and cream, stirring until smooth and thickened, about 2-3 minutes. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Return sausage to gravy and remove from heat.
Split biscuits in half lengthwise and top generously with sausage gravy. Garnish with parsley and serve.
