INGREDIENTS
Main Ingredients
1 tube refrigerated biscuits (8-count)
1 pound ground breakfast sausage
2 packets country gravy mix
1 can evaporated milk
12 large eggs
Salt and black pepper, to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and set it aside.
Step 2: Cook the Sausage
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground breakfast sausage until fully browned and no longer pink. Break it into crumbles as it cooks. Drain off any excess grease.
Step 3: Make the Sausage Gravy
Lower the heat to medium. Sprinkle the gravy mix evenly over the cooked sausage. Add 1 cup evaporated milk and 1 cup water. Stir continuously and simmer until the gravy thickens and coats the sausage evenly.
Step 4: Scramble the Eggs
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, about 5 ounces of evaporated milk, salt, and pepper. In a separate skillet over medium heat, scramble the eggs lightly. Do not overcook them, as they will continue cooking in the oven.
Step 5: Assemble the Casserole
Spread one-third of the sausage gravy mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish. Add half of the scrambled eggs on top. Spoon another layer of gravy over the eggs, followed by the remaining scrambled eggs. Finish by spreading the remaining gravy evenly over the top.
Step 6: Add the Biscuits
Place the refrigerated biscuits evenly over the top of the casserole. You can gently press them slightly into the gravy so they bake evenly.
Step 7: Bake
Bake uncovered for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and fully cooked through.
Step 8: Serve
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes. Serve warm and enjoy a comforting, savory breakfast casserole that’s perfect for sharing.
SERVING TIPS
This casserole pairs well with fresh fruit or a simple green salad to balance the richness. Leftovers reheat well in the oven or microwave, making it great for meal prep.
