Pioneer Woman Sausage Gravy: A Hearty, Comforting Classic

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it up with a spoon or spatula as it browns. Cook until the sausage is fully browned and crumbled, about 7-10 minutes.
Make the Roux:

Once the sausage is cooked through, sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir to coat the sausage in the flour. Let it cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux. This will help thicken the gravy.
Add the Milk:

Gradually pour in the milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Keep stirring as the mixture thickens, and add more milk if necessary to reach your desired consistency.
Season the Gravy:

Add the garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt (if needed). Stir to combine. Let the gravy simmer on low heat for 3-5 minutes until thick and creamy. If the gravy becomes too thick, add a little more milk to loosen it up.
Serve:

Once the gravy is thick and smooth, remove from heat and taste for seasoning. Adjust as necessary. Serve immediately over warm biscuits, toast, or potatoes.
