Ingredients

For the Biscuits:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 6 tbsp cold butter, cubed
  • ¾ cup buttermilk (plus more if needed)

For the Sausage Gravy:

  • ½ lb ground beef sausage or chicken sausage
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1½ cups milk
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • Salt to taste

For Assembly:

  • 6 slices turkey bacon, cooked and halved
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
  • 1 tbsp melted butter (for brushing biscuits)

Swaps and Notes

  • Meat: Use chicken sausage for a lighter touch, or go spicy with hot sausage.
  • Dairy-Free: Sub plant-based butter and milk to make it dairy-free.
  • Gluten-Free: Swap in gluten-free flour and biscuits to accommodate sensitivities.

How to Make Turkey Bacon & Sausage Gravy Biscuit Sliders

1. Make the Biscuits

Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in cold butter using a fork or pastry cutter until the mix looks like crumbs. Stir in buttermilk until just combined.

On a floured surface, pat dough into a ¾-inch layer and cut out 10–12 rounds with a biscuit cutter. Place on a baking sheet, brush with melted butter, and bake for 12–15 minutes until golden.

2. Make the Sausage Gravy

In a skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned. Add butter, then sprinkle in flour. Stir constantly for 1–2 minutes to form a roux. Gradually whisk in milk. Simmer until thickened. Season with salt and pepper.

3. Cook the Turkey Bacon

While the gravy simmers and biscuits bake, crisp up the turkey bacon. Cut each slice in half to fit your sliders.

4. Assemble the Sliders

Split each biscuit in half. Layer the bottom with turkey bacon, a scoop of sausage gravy, and a sprinkle of cheddar cheese if using. Cap with the top biscuit.

5. Serve

Serve warm, with extra gravy on the side for dipping or drizzling.

Tips for Success

  • Don’t overwork the dough—it’ll keep your biscuits tender.
  • Use a serrated knife to split biscuits cleanly.
  • Make ahead by baking biscuits and cooking gravy in advance, then assembling fresh.

Serving Suggestions and Pairings

Pair these sliders with bold, hearty dishes and easy extras:

Storage and Leftover Tips

  • Fridge: Store components separately for up to 3 days. Reheat biscuits and gravy gently before assembling.
  • Freezer: Freeze baked biscuits and cooked sausage gravy for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight and reheat as needed.
