Ingredients
Scale
Meats:
- 0.5 pound ground pork sausage
Dairy and Fats:
- 1.25 cups (306 g) whole milk, room temperature
- 0.25 cup Challenge® Butter Snack Spread, softened
Dry Ingredients and Seasonings:
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoon pepper
- 0.125 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 can (8-count) Southern homestyle buttermilk biscuits
- Lawry’s Seasoned Salt
Garnish:
- Parsley
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and thoroughly cook the pork sausage until it reaches a safe internal temperature, crumbling the meat into small, uniform pieces.
- Lower the heat to medium-low and sprinkle flour over the cooked sausage, stirring to create a cohesive mixture that evenly coats the meat.
- Gradually stream milk into the skillet, whisking continuously to prevent lumps and ensure a smooth consistency.
- Simmer the gravy, stirring frequently, until it thickens and develops a rich, creamy texture, approximately 8-10 minutes.
- Season the gravy with freshly ground black pepper and garlic powder, then remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and lightly coat a 12-inch oven-safe skillet with nonstick cooking spray.
- Carefully separate the biscuits and place them on a clean work surface, gently rolling each one to a thin, uniform thickness of approximately ⅛ inch.
- Spoon a generous portion of the sausage gravy mixture into the center of each flattened biscuit.
- Carefully fold and pinch the biscuit edges, creating a sealed packet that completely encases the savory filling.
- Arrange the filled biscuit bombs seam-side down in the prepared skillet, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
- Brush the tops with seasoned butter, reserving a small amount for a final glaze after baking.
- Bake until the biscuits turn a deep golden brown, approximately 18-20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and immediately brush with remaining seasoned butter.
- Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve piping hot.
