Allergy Free Biscuits and Gravy

My kids love biscuits and gravy!  Can you tell we're from the South??  Here's the recipe for the gravy that never lasts long at our house.

1/4 cup of Earth Balance spread (dairy and soy free - red container)
1/4 cup plus 2 T rice flour
2 cups plain rice milk
1/2 t salt
1/4 t pepper
pinch of cayenne red pepper
pinch of nutmeg
1/2 pound of ground sausage, browned (The sausage we use has sage, red pepper, salt, and pepper seasoning).

Melt the spread in a saucepan over medium low heat.
Add the flour and whisk for a full minute.
Slowly add the milk, whisking constantly.  Continue whisking until the gravy reaches the desired thickness.  Then add spices and browned sausage.  If the gravy is slightly too thick after adding the sausage, whisk in more milk.  

I usually have to double this recipe for my kiddos.  It's really rich and creamy and it doesn't even taste dairy-free!
