Biscuits and gravy is a dish that almost everyone loves. It’s hard to resist a light and buttery biscuit smothered in a delicious spiced white sausage gravy… pretty much the perfect meal any time of day, be it brunch, lunch or dinner!
While I love to serve the a good bowl of Biscuits and Gravy, sometimes I like to make them into a simple snackable option! This recipe takes those same flavors we grew up on and converts them into a yummy bite sized treat perfect for any potluck or gathering!
This recipe can quickly and easily be made ahead of time! The biscuits cups can be prepared and baked and the gravy can also be prepared as much as 24 hours ahead of time. Before serving, simply heat and assemble!
Food not only brings people together, it is a great way to help out others in need or just to brighten someone’s day. What a nice gesture to treat a new neighbor with a warm and yummy brunch while they’re unpacking.
While creating a quick homemade gravy for these biscuits and gravy cups is super easy, you can always use the packages of store bought gravy if you prefer. Of course grandmother always says that homemade is best (and she’s right) the packages are really delicious and you just can’t beat the convenience!
In this recipe I use ground breakfast sausage, but any ground sausage that suits your taste will work. Diced mushrooms can also be added to the ground sausage while cooking for some extra flavor.

I buy the canned or jar gravy but add some extra browned breakfast sausage for extra flavor and yumminess!! Also some cheese sprinkled over top is always a bonus too!!
Sounds delicious Cindi!
To the lady askng if gravy can be frozen- I’ve bought frozen biscuits and gravy and it doesn’t effect the taste, just freeze separately the heat the gravy and finish putting together
You could always freeze it then just put it all in a pan on the stove top when ready to use again to reheat, add a tad of milk to get the consistency back to the original.
It doesn’t say how high to turn the stove for any of yhr steps
Medium heat should work Milou
Hi, just saw the recipe for “Biscuits and Gravy Cups”, look delicious. But saw where someone else had asked if the gravy could be frozen for a later time. But has not gotten an answer yet, so I was wandering the same. Hope some one can get back to me soon and can’t wait to try it. 🙂 Thanks so much. 🙂
these sound great
You can also buy gravy in a jar while you’re at it.
Recipe sounds great! How do you think the sausage gravy would freeze? Have you ever tried to freeze it and then use it at a later date?
