Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups whole milk
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a baking dish with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking during baking.
Cook the Sausage
- Place breakfast sausage into a large skillet over medium heat. Cook until browned and fully cooked. Break it into crumbles while stirring frequently.
Prepare the Gravy Base
- Add butter to the cooked sausage in the skillet. Stir until melted completely. Sprinkle flour evenly over the sausage mixture and stir well.
Make the Creamy Gravy
- Slowly pour milk into the skillet while whisking constantly. Cook the gravy for several minutes until thick, creamy and smooth without lumps.
Add Seasonings
- Mix salt, black pepper, garlic powder and paprika into the gravy. Stir everything together so the flavors spread evenly throughout the creamy sausage gravy.
Cut the Biscuits
- Open the biscuit dough carefully. Cut each biscuit into four small pieces. Spread the biscuit pieces evenly across the greased baking dish.
Add the Sausage Gravy
- Pour the warm sausage gravy evenly over the biscuit pieces. Spread carefully with a spoon so every biscuit piece gets coated with gravy.
Prepare the Egg Mixture
- Crack eggs into a bowl and whisk until smooth. Pour the eggs evenly over the casserole mixture inside the baking dish.
Add Cheese Topping
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly across the top. The cheese creates a golden and bubbly layer while baking in the oven.
Bake the Casserole
- Place the casserole into the preheated oven. Bake for about 35 to 40 minutes until the eggs set completely and the top becomes golden brown.
Garnish and Serve
- Remove the casserole carefully from the oven. Sprinkle chopped parsley over the top before serving warm for fresh flavor and color.
Notes
- Use spicy sausage for extra flavor.
- Whole milk creates creamier gravy texture.
- Do not overbake the casserole.
- Freshly shredded cheese melts better.
- Let the casserole rest five minutes before slicing.
- Add cooked bacon for extra richness.
- Use homemade biscuit dough if preferred.
- Stir gravy constantly to avoid lumps.
