BISCUITS & GRAVY CASSEROLE
A hearty and comforting breakfast casserole with fluffy biscuits baked in rich, creamy sausage gravy. Perfect for feeding a crowd during holidays or weekend brunch with its classic Southern flavors.
Ingredients
- 2 cans 16.3 oz each refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 lb breakfast sausage
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 ½ cups milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes optional
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
Cook Sausage:
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned and crumbled. Drain excess fat.
Make Gravy:
- Sprinkle flour over sausage and stir well. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove raw flour taste.
Add Milk and Seasoning:
- Gradually whisk in milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes (if using). Simmer, stirring constantly, until gravy thickens, about 5 minutes.
Prepare Baking Dish:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Cut biscuit dough into quarters and spread evenly in the dish.
Pour Gravy:
- Pour sausage gravy evenly over the biscuit pieces.
Bake:
- Bake for 35-40 minutes until biscuits are cooked through and golden on top.
Serve:
- Let cool slightly before serving.
