• 1/2 cup of heavy cream or whole milk

SUBSTITUTIONS and ADDITIONS

Biscuit Dough: If you can’t get ready-made biscuit dough where you live, take a look at our homemade biscuit recipe.

Heavy Cream: Whole milk will work just as well as heavy cream for this biscuits and gravy breakfast casserole recipe.

Cheddar Cheese: Any type of hard cheese can be used in place of Cheddar, so feel free to use Swiss, Monterey Jack, Colby or whatever you have in the fridge.

Breakfast Sausage: Breakfast sausage comes in patties, links or loose sausages and all are fine to use for this recipe. As an alternative, you could use Italian sausage, or make a vegetarian version of this casserole with meat-free sausages.

Country Gravy Mix: If you can’t get hold of country gravy mix you can easily make your own country gravy by whisking together 3 tablespoons of butter, 3 tablespoons of flour, 1 1/2 cups of whole milk, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. 

Potato: Crispy potatoes would make a great addition to this sausage breakfast bake. Chop them into bite-sized pieces, boil until tender, and then fry alongside the onions.

Bacon: This would make a tasty addition to go alongside the sausage if you desire.

HOW TO MAKE A Biscuits and Gravy Breakfast Casserole recipe

STEP ONE: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

STEP TWO: Grease a 9” x 13” baking pan. Layer the chopped biscuit dough on the bottom of pan.

STEP THREE: Melt butter in a medium-sized skillet. Add onion and cook for about three minutes, until the onion is translucent.

STEP FOUR: Add the sausage and continue to cook until it is cooked through and no pink remains.

STEP FIVE: Drain the fat from the sausage and onions then layer them over the biscuits. 

STEP SIX: Whisk together the cream, eggs, garlic powder, and oregano. Pour it over the sausage.

STEP SEVEN: Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the egg mixture.

STEP EIGHT: Prepare the gravy mix according to directions and pour one and a half cups over the cheese.

PRO TIP: Most packages of country gravy mix make two cups, so don’t use it all or your casserole will be too wet.

STEP NINE: Bake in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until it’s bubbly and the eggs are cooked through.

STEP TEN: Serve warm.
