Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper (for seasoning)
  • 12 ounces refrigerated biscuits (cut into quarters)
  • 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 6 large eggs

  • 3 Tablespoons salted butter
  • 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme

Instruction

  • Add the sausage and onion powder into a large skillet and fry, breaking up all the chunks. Season this with salt and pepper cooking until the sausage is browned.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 7x11-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
  • Add the quartered biscuits on the bottom of the baking dish.
  • Spoon the seasoned sausage out of the pan and layer over the biscuits. (leave the grease and a little bit of sausage in the pan to make the gravy later).
  • Sprinkle shredded cheese over this.
  • In a separate bowl, break the eggs. Whisk together with milk and brown sugar. Pour this mixture over the top of the cheese.
  • In the greased skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and allow this to cook for at least 3 minutes.
  • Whisk in the salt, pepper, thyme, and milk (slowly). Heat this on medium heat until thickened.
  • Pour the gravy over the casserole.
  • Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. If biscuits and eggs are not fully cooked, continue baking for 5 more minutes at a time.
