A warm, comforting breakfast casserole combining fluffy biscuits, savory sausage gravy, and baked eggs, perfect for busy mornings or cozy weekends.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 3/4 cup whole milk (or buttermilk)
  • 1 pound breakfast sausage (spicy or mild)
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • Salt to taste
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in cold cubed butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk just until combined; dough will be slightly sticky.
  3. Heat skillet over medium heat. Brown sausage, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, about 8 minutes. Drain excess fat.
  4. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons flour over cooked sausage and stir to coat. Slowly whisk in 2 1/2 cups milk, breaking up lumps. Add black pepper, garlic powder, and salt to taste. Stir over medium heat until gravy thickens, about 5 minutes.
  5. Spread half the biscuit dough evenly in the baking dish. Pour half the sausage gravy over the dough. Dollop remaining biscuit dough on top in spoonfuls. Pour remaining gravy evenly over top.
  6. Crack eggs evenly over casserole, spacing them out. Sprinkle cheddar cheese if using. Gently press eggs slightly into biscuit and gravy layers.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes until biscuits are golden and eggs are set but yolks remain slightly runny if preferred.
  8. Let casserole rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

If gravy is too thick before baking, whisk in a splash more milk to loosen. Handle biscuit dough gently and keep butter cold for flaky biscuits. Crack eggs into a small bowl before adding to casserole to avoid shell bits. Cover casserole loosely with foil for first 15 minutes if you want eggs more cooked through. Browning sausage thoroughly adds flavor. Can add fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary to gravy for extra aroma.
