Ingredients
- 1 pound 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)
- 1 package puff pastry, thawed
Instructions
- Brown sausage in a skillet over medium heat until cooked through (about 7 minutes).
- Sprinkle flour over sausage, stir to coat, and cook for 2 minutes.
- Gradually add milk, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil.
- Reduce heat, season with salt, pepper, sage, and red pepper flakes. Simmer for 5 minutes until thickened.
- Roll out one sheet of puff pastry and press into a 9-inch pie dish.
- Pour sausage gravy into the pie shell and spread evenly.
- Roll out the second puff pastry sheet and place over the filling. Trim and crimp edges to seal.
- Cut slits in the top to vent. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 25–30 minutes until golden brown.
- Let cool briefly before serving warm.
Notes
- For a cheesy version, add 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the gravy.
- Use cold pastry to ensure flakiness.
- Can be assembled ahead and baked when ready.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat at 350°F for 15–20 minutes.
