Ingredients

• 8 biscuits (store-bought or homemade)
• 450 g breakfast sausage
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2½ cups whole milk
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook sausage, breaking it into small crumbles until browned and fully cooked.
