Ingredients

• 1 (12 ounce) package pork sausage (or maple flavored sausage)
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 3 cups milk
• salt and pepper (to taste)

Directions

1. Heat a large deep skillet to medium high heat. Add sausage, and break up into small pieces with a metal spatula while cooking. Cook until sausage is evenly browned. Remove the sausage from the pan with a slotted spoon reserving the fat drippings in the pan. Set sausage pieces aside.

2. Add butter to the pan and stir until melted. Add flour and stir until smooth. Reduce heat to medium and cook until light brown. Gradually whisk in milk, and cook until the mixture has thickened. Season with salt and pepper, and stir in cooked sausage. Reduce heat and simmer for 12 to 15 minutes. If the mixture becomes too thick, add a little more milk.

3. Serve over biscuits, or eggs and toast.
