Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Biscuit Base: Line the prepared baking dish with the biscuits, gently pressing them to form an even layer across the bottom. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Bake the Biscuits: Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits are puffed and lightly golden brown, about 8 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Leave the oven door slightly ajar to allow the oven to cool down slightly. (8 minutes)

04

Step

Sausage Sizzle: While the biscuits bake, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bulk pork sausage to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until fully cooked and browned. This should take about 10 minutes. Drain off any excess fat. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Layer it Up: Sprinkle the cooked sausage evenly over the baked biscuit base. Then, distribute the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the sausage. (3 minutes)

06

Step

Egg Custard: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, and ground black pepper until well combined. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and cheese layer. Don't worry if the egg mixture doesn't completely cover the cheese and sausage at this point; it will expand as it bakes. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Bake to Perfection: Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is set and the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), approximately 25 minutes. (25 minutes)

08

Step

Rest & Serve: Let the casserole rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the egg custard to set further, making it easier to cut and serve. (5 minutes)

09

Step

Enjoy!

For a richer flavor, try using a combination of cheddar and Gruyere cheese.
Add a dash of hot sauce or a pinch of red pepper flakes to the egg mixture for a little kick.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the sausage mixture, such as diced onions, bell peppers, or mushrooms.
This casserole can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator overnight. Just add a few extra minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
