This Instant Pot Sausage Gravy is both simple and delicious! Serve it over biscuits for a hearty breakfast, lunch, or dinner!
There is nothing better than waking up and enjoying biscuits and gravy, am I right?!?! Or, enjoying it as a hearty lunch and dinner option! It’s the kind of food that is good anytime because its comfort food at its finest!
Typically, I make mine in a cast iron skillet over the stove, but last week, I decided to once again, go the Instant Pot route. For those of you that don’t have an Instant Pot, click here, https://thecookinchicks.com/biscuits-and-gravy-skillet/ for the stovetop version!
Taking only about 5 minutes to prepare and a 2 minute cook time, this sausage gravy came out incredible and even my kiddos went crazy over it!
I chose to serve ours over canned biscuits because we were having it for dinner and I was pressed for time. If you choose to make homemade biscuits, more power to you, it’ll be great either way!!
The country style gravy was perfectly seasoned with pepper and was the perfect consistency. I made some hash browns to go with our dinner and we all had happy tummies.
Thanks to the Instant Pot, we had a quick, flavorful, and simple dinner on the table in no time! The leftovers reheated perfectly for breakfast the next morning, so it was a double win!
Hope you enjoy!

Sounds good except for the maple syrup.
It just adds a slight sweetness to it, you can definitely omit though!
I have tried this twice and even tried browning the sausage in a skillet and it still gives me the burn message .
Hmmm, I don’t know why that would happen. I just made it again this morning as is and it was great. You’re stirring everything together prior to high pressure? As long as the 3 cups liquid are in there, it shouldn’t be giving that message. Walk me through what you are doing exactly and I will try to trouble shoot for you! You’ll love this if we can get that darn message not to pop up! Sorry about it!!
