Ingredients
Scale
- 16 ounce can Grand's biscuits
- 8 eggs
- 1 pound sausage
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 5 Tablespoons butter
- 5 Tablespoons flour
- 2 ¼ cup milk divided
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Grease a 9×13 inch pan with non-stick spray and set aside.
- Cut the biscuits into quarters and place them in the bottom of the greased pan.
- Brown the sausage in a skillet and drain off excess grease. Layer the sausage over the biscuits in the pan.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the sausage in the pan.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and ¾ cup of milk until combined. Pour the egg mixture over the biscuits. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Prepare the gravy by melting 5 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan. Whisk in 5 tablespoons of flour until it forms a paste.
- Add salt and pepper to the paste and whisk until combined.
- Gradually whisk in 1 ½ cups of milk over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes until thickened. Allow the gravy to cool, then refrigerate overnight.
- In the morning, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Take the casserole out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature while the oven preheats.
- Warm the gravy in the microwave for 1-2 minutes until it's pourable. Pour the gravy over the egg casserole and cover it with aluminum foil.
- Bake the covered casserole in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. After that, remove the aluminum foil and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes or until the casserole is set in the middle, the cheese is melted, and the edges are golden brown.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
Feel free to add your favorite vegetables for extra flavor.
Make sure to let the casserole sit at room temperature before baking for even cooking.
You can substitute sausage with turkey sausage for a lighter version.
