Biscuits and Gravy with Sausage and Egg Breakfast Casserole

Step 2: Make the Sausage Gravy

1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and cooked through, breaking it into small crumbles.
2. Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir constantly for 1–2 minutes to cook out the raw flour taste.
3. Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth and slightly thickened.
4. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
5. Allow the gravy to simmer gently for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.

Step 3: Assemble the Casserole

1. Pour the sausage gravy evenly over the biscuit pieces in the baking dish. Ensure that the biscuits are partially submerged but not completely soaked.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper.
3. Pour the egg mixture over the biscuits and gravy, making sure it covers all the gaps.
4. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top for an extra creamy and cheesy finish.

Step 4: Bake

1. Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).
2. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
3. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15–20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the biscuits are golden brown.
4. Optional: Broil for 1–2 minutes to achieve a lightly browned, crispy top.

Step 5: Serve

• Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
• Garnish with chopped parsley for color and a fresh touch.
• Serve warm with coffee or fresh juice for the ultimate breakfast experience.

Tips for the Perfect Casserole

• Make ahead: Assemble the casserole the night before, cover, and refrigerate. Bake in the morning for a quick breakfast.
• Cheese variations: Try pepper jack or gouda for a different flavor profile.
• Spicy kick: Add chopped jalapeños or cayenne pepper to the sausage gravy.
• Vegetarian option: Replace sausage with sautéed mushrooms or a plant-based sausage alternative.
