Ingredients
  

For the Gravy
  • 1 pound Breakfast Sausage Provides rich, savory flavor; substitute with plant-based sausage for a vegetarian option.
  • 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour Acts as a thickening agent; gluten-free flour can be used.
  • 2 cups Whole Milk Consider half-and-half or dairy-free milk for a lighter sauce.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances overall flavor; adjust according to taste.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper Adds a slight heat; increase for more spiciness.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder Fresh minced garlic can be used instead.
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder Fresh onions can be sautéed lightly as an alternative.
For the Casserole
  • 2 cans Refrigerated Biscuits Store-bought or homemade options shine.
  • 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese Try Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack for a twist.

Equipment

  • skillet
  • baking dish

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large skillet, heat over medium heat and add the breakfast sausage. Cook for about 5–7 minutes until browned and no longer pink.
  2. Stir in 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour with the cooked sausage, letting it coat the meat for 1–2 minutes. Gradually whisk in 2 cups of whole milk and continue to cook until thickened, about 3–5 minutes.
  3. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter. Layer half of the refrigerated biscuits on the bottom.
  4. Pour half of the prepared sausage gravy over the layer of biscuits, spreading it evenly.
  5. Place the remaining biscuit halves over the top of the gravy layer.
  6. Spoon the remaining sausage gravy over the second layer of biscuits, spreading it gently.
  7. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the assembled casserole.
  8. Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
  9. Remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool for about 5–10 minutes before serving.
