Description
This easy biscuits and gravy breakfast casserole features layers of fluffy biscuit dough, savory sausage, creamy gravy, eggs, and cheese—perfect for beginners and weekend brunch.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (8-count) package of buttermilk biscuit dough
- 6 eggs
- 1 (2 3/4 ounce) package of peppered gravy mix (makes 2 cups)
- 1 lb pork sausage, any flavor
- 1 cup shredded cheese (Colby Jack or cheddar recommended)
- 1/2 cup milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 13×9 inch baking dish.
- Brown the sausage in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain thoroughly.
- Cut biscuit dough into 1-inch pieces and layer them evenly across the bottom of the baking dish.
- Spread the cooked sausage evenly over the biscuit pieces.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese over the sausage layer.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the layered ingredients in the baking dish.
- Prepare the gravy according to package instructions or make your own, then pour it evenly over the casserole.
- Bake for 35–45 minutes, or until the eggs are set and biscuits are golden and cooked through. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- If baking straight from the fridge, increase cooking time by 15–20 minutes.
- Cover with foil if the casserole browns too quickly before it’s fully cooked.
- Gravy lovers can double the gravy or serve extra on the side.
- You can use crescent rolls or toast cubes instead of biscuit dough.
- Make sausage and gravy ahead to simplify morning prep.
