Drop Biscuits 'N Gravy

I am finally getting over my weird intimidation with baking and cracking open this amazing cookbook: "The Joy of Vegan Baking" by Colleen Patrick-Goudreau.  She has perfected countless vegan recipes for breads, cookies, cakes, and everything in between.

I almost didn't believe it when the biscuit recipe said prep time: 5 minutes.  Could it be this easy to make tasty biscuits?  Yep!  Here's how:

Biscuit Ingredients:
1 2/3 Cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tblsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt 
2/3 cup almond milk
1/3 cup melted Earth Balance (or you can just use canola oil)

Preheat oven to 475, and lightly grease a baking sheet.  Combine the dry ingredients first, then add the milk and oil and stir with a fork.  The batter should be thick.  Use two spoons to put little scoops of batter on the cookie sheet.  (We also made traditional-sized biscuits with this recipe and they turned out fine.  The mini ones were PERFECT for the biscuits n gravy, though).  Bake for about 8 minutes.

Gravy ingredients:
Earth Balance vegan butter
almond milk
flour
diced onion
vegan sausage (We used Light Life brand)
seasonings

For the vegan gravy, we made a roux with the butter and flour, then added the almond milk.  Simmer for a few minutes and you can add a little more flour/milk to get the consistency you want. Stir and simmer.  In a separate pan, we sauteed the onion and sausage, then added it to he gravy.
