Ingredients
  

Biscuit topping

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp xanthan gum
  • 2 tbsp frozen butter
  • 2 large egg whites

Sausage and gravy

  • 12 oz ground pork breakfast sausage (check for non-keto filler)
  • 1 tsp xanthan gum
  • 1.5 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper (to taste)
  • 1/4 tsp salt (to taste - this one's important)
  • 1/2 cup 10% cream
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)
  • 1-2 stalk cubed celery (optional)

Instructions
 

Biscuit topping

  • Whip egg whites to stiff peaks.
  • Shred the frozen butter.
  • Fold in everything, cover, and chill until needed.

Sausage and Gravy

  • Pan fry the sausage on medium heat until brown.
  • Make sure to leave at least 1 tbsp of sausage grease in the pan.
  • Set the sausage aside on paper towel to soak up the extra oil. Roll the sausages on the paper towel, then remove - the sausages might stick to the paper towel.
  • Add the xanthan gum to the pan, whisk, and cook until brown.
  • Add the rest of the Sausage and Gravy ingredients in order, whisking the entire time. Add the salt a little at a time and taste - if your sausage or broth are salty, it's easy to go overboard on the salt.
  • Simmer until creamy.
  • Optional - add 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and/or chopped celery, depending on what you like, and the flavour of the sausage.
  • Cut the sausage into small chunks, add to the gravy, and mix well.
  • Pour the sausage base into a casserole dish, drop 1 tsp dollops of biscuit mix over the top of the casserole.
  • Bake at 375F for 18-20 minutes, or until the biscuit top is golden brown.
