2 Ingredient Southern Biscuits & Bacon Gravy 🥓❤️

Rich, creamy, and savory bacon gravy served atop freshly baked 2 ingredient biscuits. This Southern breakfast classic is as warm, cozy, and filling as it gets.

Biscuits:

2-1/4 cups self-rising flour (1/4 cup set aside for rolling)

1-1/2 cups heavy whipping cream

Preheat oven to 500°F

Place flour in a large bowl. Gradually stir in cream, adding just enough to moisten flour to a sticky dough.

Pour biscuit dough onto a lightly floured surface.

Gently pat, knead, and roll the dough to about a ½-inch thickness. Dust with flour on top of biscuit dough and fold over book style. Repeat this step twice to create layers.

Cut dough with a 2-inch biscuit cutter. Rerolling dough as needed.

Place biscuits on the baking sheet or cast iron skillet, sprayed with vegetable spray.

Rub heavy cream on the tops of biscuits.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Serve warm.

Bacon Gravy:

6 slices thick cut bacon, cooked and crumbled

2 Tbsp bacon grease

1/4 yellow onion, finely minced

2 cloves garlic, finely minced

2 Tbsp flour

2 cups milk

salt & black pepper, to taste

Place 6 slices of bacon in the skillet and cook until just under crispy. Remove and set aside.

Drain all but 2 tablespoons of bacon grease.

Add minced onion and garlic. Cook about 1 minute until translucent and fragrant.

Add flour and whisk over medium-high heat for about 1 minute. Do not burn.

Add the milk, whisking until thickened. Add crumbled bacon and stir. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve over biscuits or toast. #recipe #baking #biscuits #southern #foryoupage #bacon #friends
