How to Make Air Fryer Biscuits and Gravy

Step 1 – Make the Air Fryer Gravy

Saute the sausage in the air fryer multi cooker (or a pot on the stovetop if not using an air fryer) on a medium setting. Drain the grease before adding the other ingredients.

Add the remaining sausage gravy ingredients to the pot and stir together. Cook for a few minutes to thicken the gravy.

Step 2 – Make the Biscuits

While the sausage is cooking, in a mixing bowl combine the dry ingredients for the biscuits. Once they are combined, add in the wet ingredients.
