Old Fashioned Biscuits and Gravy
This delicious biscuits and gravy recipe is a total blast from my past. My great grandmother would make this dish when she was watching me and my siblings when we were really young. It’s yummy, simple and such an easy idea for dinner.
Ingredients
For the Biscuits:
2 1/2 cups self rising flour

1 can evaporated milk
Salt and pepper to taste

Using your clean hands, smash the butter and flour together to combine. Add the salt the to the flour and mix together.
3
Add the evaporated milk and water to the flour and mix together to form a soft dough.

7
Remove from the oven and set aside.
8
To make the gravy, add the ground hamburger and onions to a frying pan and cook completely. Sprinkle with flour mix to combine, add the chicken stock and the evaporated milk. Stir to combine.
