Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb sausage mild or spicy, based on preference
  • 2 cups milk
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp ground sage
  • ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes optional, for heat
  • 1 package puff pastry thawed

Instructions
 

  • Cook the Sausage Gravy:
  • In a large skillet, brown the sausage over medium heat, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks.
  • Sprinkle flour over the sausage and stir well, cooking for 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
  • Slowly pour in the milk while stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
  • Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, or until thickened.
  • Season with salt, pepper, sage, and red pepper flakes (if using). Set aside.
  • Assemble the Pie:
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Roll out one puff pastry sheet and line a 9-inch pie dish, leaving some overhang.
  • Pour the sausage gravy into the pastry-lined dish, spreading evenly.
  • Roll out the second pastry sheet and place it on top, sealing the edges by crimping with a fork.
  • Trim excess dough and cut a few small slits in the top to vent steam.
  • Bake & Serve:
  • Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and flaky.
  • Let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy the rich, flaky layers!

Notes

Make Ahead: Prepare the gravy a day ahead for quicker assembly.
Extra Flaky Crust: Brush the top pastry with an egg wash before baking.
Variations: Add sautéed onions or shredded cheese to the gravy for extra flavor.
