Ingredients
Scale
Biscuits
- 8 frozen or refrigerated biscuits
Sausage Gravy
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 3 cups milk
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- Salt and pepper to taste
Egg Mixture
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the casserole.
- Prepare Sausage Gravy: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into crumbles. Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir for about a minute to cook the flour. Slowly whisk in the milk, continuing to stir until the gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat.
- Layer Biscuits: Arrange the biscuits in a greased 9×13-inch casserole dish in a single layer.
- Assemble the Casserole: Pour the warm sausage gravy evenly over the biscuits. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then gently pour them over the biscuits and gravy layer. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese and chopped parsley on top if using.
- Bake Until Set: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the egg mixture is fully set and the biscuits are cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving to allow it to set further. Serve warm for the best experience.
Notes
- You can use homemade biscuits or any store-bought refrigerated or frozen biscuits.
- For a spicier gravy, add red pepper flakes or hot sauce to the sausage gravy.
- This casserole can be prepared the night before; simply refrigerate after assembling and bake in the morning, adding a few extra minutes to the bake time if coming straight from the fridge.
- Freezing option: Freeze before baking and thaw overnight in the refrigerator before baking.
- Optional cheese and parsley add flavor and color but can be omitted for a simpler dish.
