Description

A comforting breakfast casserole layered with fluffy refrigerated biscuits, savory homemade sausage gravy, eggs, and melted cheddar cheese. This hearty dish is perfect for holiday mornings or feeding a large crowd, offering a delicious and satisfying start to your day.

Ingredients

Biscuits

  • 1 can refrigerated biscuits

Sausage Gravy

  • 1 lb breakfast sausage
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Egg Mixture & Cheese

  • 6 eggs
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the casserole.
  2. Prepare biscuits: Cut the refrigerated biscuits into quarters and arrange them evenly in a greased baking dish, forming the base layer of the casserole.
  3. Cook sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until it is fully browned and no longer pink, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks.
  4. Make gravy: Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the cooked sausage, stirring well to coat and cook the flour slightly. Gradually pour in the milk while stirring continuously. Cook the mixture until it thickens into a smooth sausage gravy. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  5. Assemble casserole: Pour the hot sausage gravy evenly over the biscuit quarters in the baking dish.
  6. Prepare egg mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and black pepper until combined. Pour this mixture evenly over the sausage gravy layer.
  7. Add cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top of the casserole to add a rich, gooey finish.
  8. Bake: Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the casserole is golden brown on top and the eggs are fully set.
  9. Serve: Allow the casserole to cool slightly before serving warm to enhance flavors and prevent burning.

Notes

  • Add cooked bacon pieces for an extra layer of smoky flavor.
  • Substitute cheddar with pepper jack cheese to add a spicy kick to the dish.
  • This casserole is best enjoyed warm for optimal texture and taste.
