Description
Golden, cheesy biscuit casserole with sausage gravy and egg base, blending Southern comfort and modern flair.
Ingredients
1 lb ground sausage
8 oz shredded cheddar cheese
4 eggs
1 cup milk
1 can of biscuit dough
Optional: sautéed peppers, spinach, caramelized onions, hot sauce, leftover cornbread stuffing
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish.
2. In a skillet over medium heat, brown your sausage until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
3. In a bowl, whip together the eggs, milk, and half the cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste.
4. Spread cooked sausage evenly across the bottom of your baking dish.
5. Pour egg mixture over the sausage.
6. Cut biscuit dough into quarters and layer evenly across the top. Don’t worry if there are gaps.
7. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
8. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until biscuits are golden and cooked through. The center should be set.
9. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
Make-ahead friendly: Prep the night before and refrigerate, or freeze unbaked up to 1 month.
Self-rising flour makes biscuits fluffier; ideal for homemade versions.
Pairs well with fruit salad or sausage gravy on top.
