Ingredients
- 1 can 16 oz refrigerated biscuits, quartered
- 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
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into small crumbles as it cooks.
- Sprinkle flour over the cooked sausage and stir well. Gradually whisk in 2½ cups milk. Cook until a thick gravy forms. Season with salt and pepper.
- Arrange the quartered biscuit pieces evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- Pour the sausage gravy evenly over the biscuit pieces.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and ½ cup milk until smooth and fully combined.
- Slowly pour the egg mixture evenly over the biscuit and gravy layers. Let sit for 1–2 minutes.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
- Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Freshly shredded cheese melts better than pre-shredded cheese.
- Spicy breakfast sausage adds extra flavor.
- Letting the casserole rest before serving helps it hold together.
- Great for holiday breakfasts and weekend brunches.
