Ingredients

For the Casserole
- 1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuits, cut into quarters
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 6 large eggs
- ½ cup whole milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
For the Gravy
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2½ cups whole milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Step-by-Step Process
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.

Step 2: Cook the Sausage
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked.
Break it into small crumbles as it cooks.
Do not drain all the fat—you’ll need some for the gravy.

Step 3: Make the Gravy
Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage and stir well.
Cook for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually whisk in the milk.
Continue stirring until the gravy thickens, about 4–5 minutes.
Season with salt and black pepper.
Remove from heat.

Step 4: Layer the Biscuits
Arrange the quartered biscuit pieces evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Spread them into a single layer.

Step 5: Add the Sausage Gravy
Pour the sausage gravy evenly over the biscuit pieces.
Use a spoon to distribute the sausage throughout the casserole.

Step 6: Prepare the Egg Mixture
In a mixing bowl, whisk together:
- Eggs
- ½ cup milk
Pour the mixture evenly over the sausage and biscuits.

Step 7: Pour the Egg Mixture
Slowly pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage gravy and biscuit layers. Move around the baking dish as you pour so the liquid is distributed throughout the casserole.
The egg mixture will settle between the biscuits and gravy, helping bind everything together while creating a fluffy, tender texture as it bakes.
Allow the casserole to sit for 1–2 minutes so the biscuits can absorb some of the liquid.

Step 8: Add Cheese
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.

Step 9: Bake
Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top is golden brown.

Step 10: Cool and Serve
Remove from the oven and allow the casserole to rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm with fresh fruit, hash browns, or your favorite breakfast sides.
