Ingredients

Scale

Sausage and Meat

  • 1 pound breakfast sausage

Egg Mixture

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk or cream
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional herbs (such as parsley, chives, or thyme) to taste
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or preferred melting cheese)

Biscuits and Other

  • 8 to 10 flaky biscuits (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoons butter (for greasing and brushing)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sausage: Crumble the sausage into a skillet over medium heat and cook until browned and fully cooked through. Drain any excess fat to avoid greasiness in the dish.
  2. Beat the Eggs and Mix: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk or cream, salt, pepper, optional herbs, and shredded cheese until smooth and creamy.
  3. Arrange Biscuits and Sausage: Grease a baking dish with butter, then place the biscuits inside. Evenly distribute the cooked sausage over and between the biscuit pieces.
  4. Pour Egg Mixture Over: Gently pour the beaten egg mixture over the arranged biscuits and sausage, ensuring all pieces are well coated to absorb the flavors during baking.
  5. Bake Until Golden and Puffy: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the casserole for 35 to 40 minutes or until the eggs are fully set and the biscuits turn golden brown on top.

Notes

  • Use fresh or homemade biscuits for the best texture, avoiding dry or tough layers.
  • Whisk eggs lightly to maintain fluffiness without making the mixture dense.
  • Distribute sausage evenly for consistent savory bites throughout.
  • Let the casserole rest for at least 5 minutes before cutting to help it hold its shape.
  • Use a glass baking dish to better monitor browning and reduce sticking.
