Prepare the Biscuits

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Melt the butter in a 10-inch cast iron pan.
    1 tablespoon butter
  • Cut each biscuit into four pieces.
    1 can refrigerated biscuits
    Round pieces of biscuit dough, some whole and some cut into smaller portions, are arranged on a white cutting board against a light blue surface.
  • Shape each piece into a ball.

Assemble the Dish

  • Arrange the biscuit pieces around the edge of the skillet so they are touching.
  • Spoon the sausage gravy into the center of the skillet.

Bake

  • Bake for 10 - 15 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Remove from the oven and serve warm.

Notes

  • Storage: Cover and refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days.
  • Reheating: Warm in a 350°F oven until heated through, or microwave individual portions in short intervals.
  • Freezing: Can be frozen, but the biscuit texture will soften. Cool completely, wrap tightly, and freeze up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
