Sausage, Egg, and Gravy Biscuit Breakfast Bake
A Hearty Morning Casserole That Feeds Everyone
If breakfast is the most important meal of the day, then this Sausage, Egg, and Gravy Biscuit Bake is proof that it can also be the most comforting. This dish layers fluffy biscuits, savory sausage, creamy gravy, and rich eggs into one casserole that’s perfect for family mornings, holiday brunches, or meal prepping for busy weeks.
Instead of standing over the stove cooking each part separately, this recipe combines all the southern breakfast favorites into a single baking dish. The result? Golden biscuits on top, rich and creamy gravy in the middle, and savory sausage and eggs baked throughout.
Ingredients You’ll Need
For a 9×13-inch baking dish:
1 lb breakfast sausage (mild, spicy, or maple flavored)
1 (16 oz) can refrigerated biscuit dough (such as Pillsbury Grands, cut into quarters)
6 large eggs
2 cups milk, divided
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for a little heat)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Prepare the Sausage
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the sausage until browned and crumbled.
Drain excess grease, then set aside.
This adds the savory foundation of the casserole.
Step 2: Make the Creamy Sausage Gravy
In the same skillet, melt the butter.
Sprinkle in the flour and whisk constantly for 1–2 minutes to form a roux.
Slowly pour in 1 1/2 cups of milk, whisking to avoid lumps.
Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Stir until the gravy thickens (about 5 minutes).
Stir in half of the cooked sausage.
This gravy will soak into the biscuits while baking, giving them flavor and keeping the casserole moist.
Step 3: Prep the Egg Mixture
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and remaining 1/2 cup milk.
Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
This mixture ensures the bake has that fluffy, custard-like egg layer.
