Paleo Friendly Biscuits & Gravy

There are so many obstacles when trying to make biscuits and gravy a paleo meal.  The first is the biscuits.  Today, I tried this recipe from the Deliciously Organic site. Several days ago I had made this biscuit recipe.  It was good, but we all liked the one I made today better.  I think it is due to the mix of flours and using butter. 


Now that we have overcome that obstacle, lets move onto the gravy.  Replacing the dairy and making the gravy thick and creamy can be tricky.  The first time I did this the flavor was right, but the arrowroot made it sticky & stringy.  This time the tapioca flour made it better.  We do not prefer pork in our household, so we use turkey sausage.  I'm sure pork sausage could be substituted if desired.

Turkey Sausage Gravy
1 lb turkey sausage
3 Tbsp butter
3 Tbsp tapioca flour
1/2 tsp ground mustard
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
2 1/2 cup non-dairy milk (we used a mix of coconut & almond)
1 Tbsp worchestershire sauce

Crumble sausage in large saucepan, cook until no longer pink.  Transfer to a bowl.  In the same pan, melt butter.  Stir in flour, mustard, salt and pepper.  Gradually add milk and worchestershire sauce.  Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes until thick.  Stir in sausage; heat through.  Serve with warm biscuits.
