Keto Biscuits and Gravy

Let us indulge in a Southern Classic Breakfast choice of Biscuits and Gravy, but without all of the carbohydrates it usually contains.

Let us look at this comforting, decadent, and filling keto biscuits and gravy recipe.

Cook your super thick sausage gravy from scratch and pour it over warm and freshly baked Keto Biscuits with a Slovak twist. 

Keto Meal Plan

As our keto biscuit and low-carb sausage gravy are great to store in the freezer, they are perfect as an addition to your weekly Meal Plan. 

All you have to do is freeze both the biscuits and gravy in smaller containers, and you have a perfect keto meal whenever you are in a hurry. 

What are Biscuits and Gravy? 

Biscuits and Gravy is a Southern classic breakfast dish, where white gravy made from sausage and milk is poured over halved biscuits. 

This very popular American breakfast is delicious but filled with so many carbohydrates, one would not believe it.

With my recipes for keto biscuits and sausage gravy, I have tried my best to reduce the carbohydrate intake to an absolute minimum.

Are Biscuits and Gravy Healthy?

For this question I have to answer, it depends.

It depends on where you have the dish. Restaurant? Frozen? Store-bought? Or Homemade?

The most important are the ingredients involved in each biscuit and gravy you are eating. 

There might be so many hidden ingredients that are not healthy at all, such as starches, sugars, syrups, and more.

One great advantage is that if you decide to make our Low Carb Biscuits and Gravy recipe entirely from scratch, you will have only the healthiest of all ingredients possible. 

You can make your own sausage, your own seasoning, biscuits as well as gravy. And all of this is entirely Gluten-free, Keto, Low carb, Grain-Free, and Diabetic Friendly.

Although the portion might sound small, those biscuits in gravy are so filling that you will feel already full halfway eating it.

The Best Biscuits and Gravy Recipe

Our Recipe consists of 2 parts. The first is making perfectly delicious keto biscuits.

Once they are in the oven, you can start cooking your gravy. 

Keto Biscuits Recipe

As I wanted to make for you something a tiny bit different from what you are used to, I have decided to give our biscuits a Slovak twist of flavor. 

In my country, we have something very similar to biscuits called Pagace and they are loved by all.

Therefore I have decided to give our biscuits a look and a filling of grounded pork scratchings.

Once you try them, you are never going to go back to anything else. 

Keto Sausage Gravy

Our sausage gravy recipe combines my homemade sausage together with homemade sausage seasoning, and therefore there is no need to add any additional Spices. 

With just a few ingredients and some cooking time, you will be enjoying one of the best keto gravy you have eaten.

I have briefly summarized both of the recipes in this post, but if you have questions or want more details about each recipe, please visit them individually.

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAKING THE BEST EVER KETO SAUSAGE AND GRAVY RECIPE

First Step: Ingredients for Keto Biscuits making

The first step is to prepare all of the ingredients for keto biscuits. 

Regarding the scratchings and lard, I have a homemade recipe where you can make your own pork scratching, out of which you will also have lard left.

Second Step: Mix All Ingredients 

In a big bowl, mix all of the dry ingredients first, into which you then add all of the wet ingredients except the homemade pork scratchings. Those go only at the latest date.

Thoroughly mix everything until you get a perfect dough for making the biscuits.

Third Step: Chill

Next is to chill your dough. 

It is much better to work with a dough once it is chilled in the fridge for 2 to 3 hours or even overnight. It depends on how long you have.

If you’re short on time, just place it in the freezer for half an hour.

Fourth Step: Roll and Fill

Heat your oven to 180 Celsius and 350 Fahrenheit.

Take the dough out of the refrigerator and start rolling it into a rectangular shape.

Roll it much thinner than you would want your biscuits to be and spread grounded scratching paste on the whole sheet. 

Your scratchings can be grounded in your magic bullet or a coffee grinder.

Spread all of the paste onto the dough and fold it in half.

Fifth Step: Cut Out

Using a round cookie cutter, cut your biscuits and place them onto the baking sheet covered with parchment paper.

Sixth Step: Design, Brush, and Bake

Once all of your biscuits are placed on the parchment paper, you can use an egg slicer as you see in the video to make the design. I’m used to it from my country, but this is really optional.

Brush the top of each biscuit with mixed egg yolk and place into the oven for 15 minutes.

Seventh Step: Ingredients for Keto Sausage Gravy

The next step comes in preparing the sausage gravy.

Prepare all of the ingredients needed.

Eighth Step: Cook

Heat your saucepan and add butter.

Once the butter melts, add your chopped onions and caramelize them until brown.

Add all of the meat from your sausage in our case already with sausage seasoning.

Start cooking your sausage for approximately 10 to 15 minutes.

Once you see that your sausage is fully cooked, you can sprinkle it with Xanthan gum.

Xanthan gum helps to thicken the sauce.

Serve together with the biscuits and enjoy.

Tips and Tricks:

Biscuits:

  • Sour Cream – can be swapped with cream cheese, buttermilk, or plain greek yogurt
  • Herbs – add fresh herbs from your garden
  • Lard – can be exchanged with butter
  • Pork Scratchings – can be ground in a magic bullet, blender, or coffee grinder.

Sausage Gravy:

  • Spices – Traditional gravy gets its flavor from the sausage, and that is what I wanted to be kept at. Our homemade Sausage contains enough of a flavorful spice mixture that there is no need to add more. 
  • Sour Cream – can be replaced with cream cheese or heavy whipping cream
  • Sauce Too thick – use broth or water or almond milk
  • Sauce Too liquid – add a tiny bit more Xanthan or un-fattened almond flour

It is super simple and easy to store biscuits and gravy.

Place them in your refrigerator, where they should stay good for 3 to 4 days. 

Anything longer, please freeze it.
