What Thickener to Use for the Sausage Gravy?
As we can’t thicken the sauce with flour, you can use a small amount of xanthan gum. I didn’t use any thickener because once the sauce simmers, it gets pretty thick.
Once the sausage is cooked, add the chicken broth, cream cheese, and heavy cream. Add salt and pepper, to taste and only if needed. Sausage is usually pretty salty. Let it simmer until the sauce becomes thicker.
Serve this delicious keto sausage gravy with one or two biscuits.
How To Make Keto Biscuits?
To begin making these delicious keto biscuits, preheat your oven and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease a muffin tin.
Next, combine the eggs, cream cheese, and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl. Add the melted butter to the mixture and continue mixing. Then, add the cheddar cheese, coconut flour, and baking powder to the bowl and mix until the dough is well combined.
After allowing the dough to rest for 5 minutes, use a cookie scoop or biscuit cutter to portion out the dough. Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet or muffin tin.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes or until they appear golden brown on top and have a delightful aroma.
That’s it! Making keto biscuits, it’s super easy, and all my family members love them.
Pro Tip: If you prefer taller biscuits, it’s best to use bake the batter in a muffin pan, so they keep the form and rise beautifully.
How To Serve?
Once the biscuits are baked, and the gravy is ready, simply split the biscuits in half, and spoon the gravy over the top. You can garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for added flavor and presentation.
If you’re looking for a complete meal, you can serve the biscuits and gravy with a side of eggs, bacon, or other keto-friendly breakfast options.
How Many Carbs Are In The Keto Biscuits?
I divided the batter into 9 equal biscuits, so each comes at about:
- 115 calories
- 3g carbs
- 1g fiber
- 2g net carbs
How To Store
To store keto sausage and gravy, you should let it cool down to room temperature first.
- Fridge – Store the gravy in an air-tight container for up to 4 days. Place the keto biscuits in a different container and store them for up to 5 days.
Can I Freeze Sausage Gravy?
Yes, you can freeze keto sausage gravy. Keto sausage gravy can be frozen for up to 3 months. To thaw it, remove it from the freezer and let it defrost in the refrigerator overnight. Once thawed, you can reheat the gravy on the stovetop, in the microwave, or in the oven until it’s hot and bubbly. Add more liquid if needed to thicken the sauce.
How To Reheat
When reheating the frozen sausage gravy, you may need to add a little bit of liquid, such as broth or water, to help restore the consistency and creaminess of the gravy. It’s important to reheat the sausage gravy thoroughly before consuming it to ensure that it’s safe to eat.
Is Sausage Gravy Keto?
Traditional sausage gravy is not considered keto-friendly due to its high carbohydrate content, which primarily comes from the flour used to make the gravy. However, there are several keto-friendly variations of sausage gravy that use low-carb thickeners such as xanthan gum, crema cheese or coconut flour instead of wheat flour.
