🥓 Ingredients: Your Shopping List Made Simple!
Here’s everything you’ll need to whip up our irresistible Breakfast Casserole with Biscuits:
– 1 (16 oz) can refrigerated jumbo biscuits (your favorite brand!)
– 12 oz breakfast sausage (pork, turkey, chicken—your choice!)
– 8 large eggs
– 1 cup milk
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (you can never have too much cheese, am I right?)
– Salt & pepper, to taste
Yep, that’s it! Easy ingredients you might even already have on-hand.
🔥 Step-by-Step Directions: Let’s Rock this Recipe!
Step 1: Preheat and Prep
First things first, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a 9×13 baking dish with a bit of butter or cooking spray. This ensures your casserole won’t stick, and you’ll be serving up beautiful slices in no time.
Step 2: Biscuit Base
Crack open that can of biscuits, place the biscuit dough pieces side-by-side in your greased dish, then press down firmly, covering the bottom evenly. Voilà! You’ve got the yummiest biscuit crust ever.
Step 3: Sausage Sizzle Time
In your favorite skillet, crumble and cook up the breakfast sausage over medium heat, stirring occasionally until perfectly browned and fragrant. Drain off any extra fat, then spread the cooked sausage evenly over your biscuit crust.
Step 4: Whisk-Up Those Eggs
In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Give it a good stir until nicely blended and creamy, then pour the egg mixture evenly over your sausage-covered biscuit crust.
Step 5: Top it Off (Cheese, Please!)
Sprinkle that shredded cheddar on top (feel free to add extra cheese, like mozzarella or Monterey Jack—or spice it up with pepper jack cheese!)
Step 6: Bake to Deliciousness
Now, pop the casserole into your preheated oven for about 25–30 minutes until it’s golden-brown, bubbly, and the biscuits have puffed beautifully. Check halfway through—if the casserole top browns too quickly, simply cover it loosely with foil during the last 10–15 minutes.
Step 7: Cool and Slice
Take the mouth-watering casserole out of the oven and let it sit for about 5 minutes. This helps the slices hold their shape when you cut into them.
