✅ Tips for perfect biscuits & gravy
- Cold butter = flaky biscuits
- Gravy thickens more as it cools
- If gravy gets too thick, add a splash of milk
- Pepper is not optional — it makes the dish
🔥 Easy Variations
- Cheesy biscuits: add shredded cheddar to dough
- Spicy gravy: use hot sausage or add red pepper flakes
- Extra creamy: swap some milk for half-and-half
If you want, I can also give you:
- drop biscuits only
- one-pan gravy
- or a Southern-style extra-thick gravy
Just say the word 🤍🍽️
