Turkey sausage is lower in fat, while pork sausage is often cheaper.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Mix together 1 cup of flour, 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder, and 0.25 teaspoon of kosher salt by hand.

Add 5 ounces of heavy cream to the flour mixture and combine until a shaggy ball forms.

Cut the dough into three biscuits and place them on a tray.

Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes.

In a skillet, brown the sausage, adding a touch of butter if necessary.

To make the gravy, add black pepper and flour to the sausage, cooking until the flour loses its raw flavor.

Slowly whisk in 2 cups of milk until the mixture thickens.
