Who doesn’t love some Biscuits and Gravy on a cold morning? We definitely do but sometimes the kids want to help make the gravy and they end up adding way too much salt or pepper so I decided to make up some dry mix that they could use. It really does simplify the process and it’s nice to have on hand if I ever want to make a pan of country gravy really quick.

I also like to write the recipe on a small index card or piece of paper and tape it to the jar so I don’t have to pull out a recipe every time I need to refill my container.

Homemade Pepper Gravy or Country Gravy Mix

Ingredients:

• 5 c.  Flour
• 2 ½ c. powdered milk
• ¼ c. salt
• ¼ c. black pepper
• ¼ c. cornstarch or other thickener, optional

Directions:

Mix all ingredients together in an airtight container.

¼ c mix = approximately 1 package of gravy mix

To use:

Melt 2-3 tablespoons of grease in a pan and then add ¼ c. of mix and 1 ½- 2 cups of milk (or use broth for country gravy). Whisk together and heat until gravy has reached the desired consistency.
