Biscuits and Gravy Casserole

BISCUITS

We love our comfort food here at the Gracious House, and what is better comfort food than your classic biscuits and gravy?!  The problem I run into when cooking biscuits and gravy is that I can never get the timing quite right.  Either the biscuits have gotten a bit cold or the gravy has, and the more people you’re serving, the harder it gets.

Biscuits and Gravy Casserole takes care of that problem by heating up everything at once so you can serve lots of people their nice warm biscuits and gravy casserole all at once.

This Biscuits and Gravy Casserole includes a homemade, flaky buttermilk biscuits recipe that really makes the dish amazing.  The dough is a bit sticky, so don’t let that alarm you.  It’s what makes them so delicious and moist.  If you’d prefer to use canned biscuits, that’s also an option.  Just use 1 package of canned biscuits, and simply skip to step 6 and follow the directions from there.

If you want to make these amazing buttermilk biscuits but don’t have any buttermilk on hand, you can use this super simple Buttermilk Substitute guide.  I use it all the time, and it works like a charm!

BAKED BISCUITS

These Southern Buttermilk Biscuits are super easy and melt-in-your-mouth delicious! They're tender and fluffy; perfect for drizzling with honey, butter, or sugar.

Serves: 10

INGREDIENTS

2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting the board
1⁄4 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon table salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, very cold

1 cup buttermilk
Optional: ½ cup sugar for topping, honey, or butter

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 450F, with rack on middle position. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
2. Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl (or bowl of a food processor.) Using a pastry cutter or a food processor, cut the butter into chunks and cut into the flour mixture until it resembles course meal. If using a food processor, just pulse a few times until this consistency is achieved. Gently add the buttermilk and fold with a rubber spatula just until combined wet/dry ingredients are combined - don't overmix. If it's too dry, add a bit more buttermilk. Dough should be relatively wet.
