The rich sausage gravy is seasoned with sage and pepper flakes for a flavorful kick, all encased in a golden, buttery puff pastry crust that bakes to perfection in under an hour.

Ingredients

Sausage Gravy

  • 1 lb sausage
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Puff Pastry

  • 1 package of puff pastry, thawed

Instructions

  1. Cook sausage and prepare gravy: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned, breaking it into smaller pieces. Sprinkle flour over the cooked sausage and stir for about 2 minutes to cook the flour taste out. Gradually whisk in the milk, increasing heat to medium-high, and bring to a boil while stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for about 5 minutes until gravy thickens. Season with salt, pepper, sage, and optional red pepper flakes.
  2. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the pie.
  3. Prepare the puff pastry: Roll out one sheet of puff pastry and lay it in a 9-inch pie dish with some overhang. Pour the sausage gravy evenly into the pastry-lined dish. Roll out the second sheet and cover the pie, trimming excess pastry and sealing edges by crimping. Cut small slits on top for steam to escape.
  4. Bake the pie: Place the assembled pie on the middle oven rack and bake for 25-30 minutes until the puff pastry is golden brown and flaky.
  5. Cool and serve: Allow the pie to cool for a few minutes before slicing to let the gravy settle. Serve warm to enjoy the delicious blend of savory sausage and flaky pastry.

Notes

  • Make sure to thaw puff pastry completely before rolling to prevent cracking.
  • For a spicier kick, add extra crushed red pepper flakes to the gravy.
  • You can substitute milk with half-and-half or a dairy-free alternative for different flavor or dietary needs.
  • Use a pie plate that is about 9 inches to ensure proper baking and filling volume.
  • Letting the pie cool slightly before slicing helps maintain clean, intact slices.
