    I LOVE a good breakfast.  My go-to is usually eggs benedict but have found myself craving biscuits and gravy.  I’m not one to order it out at a restaurant, but when Luis orders it, I often find myself stealing a bite….or ten.  So, we have started making it at home.  Now, I’ll be the first to admit that I have used the country gravy packet and added breakfast sausage to it in the past (don’t judge me!).  Honestly, it’s not hard to make the gravy and I was a bit skeptical as to why anyone would need to speed up the process by cooking it in the Ninja Foodi.  I gave it a go this past weekend…..and I am a believer!  I wouldn’t say that it’s quicker to make the gravy in the Ninja Foodi but it comes out SO MUCH CREAMIER!  I was impressed and will never make it on the stovetop again!

    Tips for this Recipe:

    • Buy bulk breakfast sausage from the meat counter.  You can use the premade sausage links and remove the casing or the uncooked sausage patties, but the uncased bulk sausage is so much easier!
    • If you like your sausage a little crispy or burnt, cook it longer in the pot before adding in the other ingredients.
    • Save your extra bacon grease in a mason jar in the refrigerator. Adding the bacon fat to recipes is a great way to add flavor without changing the texture of the meal.

    How to Make Sausage Gravy in the Ninja Foodi

    1. Make your favorite biscuits according to the recipe or the instructions on the can
    2. Turn on your Ninja Foodi and select the sauté function
    3. Add the sausage and cook until browned- about 5 minutes
      1. Be sure to crumble the sausage with a spatula or spoon
    4. Add in chicken broth and bacon fat
    5. Stir until bacon fat has melted and ingredients are combined
    6. Place the pressure cooker lid on the Ninja Foodi and set the valve to seal.
    7. Cook on high pressure for 5 minutes
    8. In a separate bowl (or large mason jar with lid) mix flour and milk together until fully incorporated.
    9. When timer beeps, move valve to vent and quick release all pressure.
    10. Remove lid
    11. Add in flour and milk mixture
    12. Add in salt and pepper
    13. Stir continuously until gravy has thickened- about 5 minutes.
    14. Serve over biscuits

    It’s time to eat!  Serve our delicious Ninja Foodi Sausage Gravy over biscuits.

        You can just skip it. I save all bacon fat and store it in a mason jar in the refrigerator to use later :)!!
