Biscuits and Gravy with Sausage and Egg Breakfast Casserole – A Southern Comfort Classic

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13 dish.
Cook sausage – brown in skillet, drain grease.
Make gravy – sprinkle gravy mix over sausage, add 1 cup evaporated milk + 1 cup water. Stir until thickened.
Prepare eggs – whisk eggs with 5 oz evaporated milk, salt & pepper. Lightly scramble in skillet.
Layer casserole – spread ⅓ of sausage gravy in dish, then half the eggs. Repeat layers, finishing with gravy on top.
Add biscuits – arrange raw biscuits on top of the casserole.
Bake for 20–25 minutes until biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
Serve & enjoy warm, straight from the oven!

What to Serve With It

Fresh fruit salad for balance 🍓
A pitcher of orange juice or mimosas 🍊🥂
Crispy hash browns or roasted potatoes 🥔

Tips for Success

Don’t overcook eggs before layering—they’ll finish in the oven.
Check biscuit doneness by gently lifting one—if it’s still doughy, bake 5 minutes longer.
Make-ahead – assemble casserole (without biscuits), cover, refrigerate overnight. Add biscuits in the morning before baking.

Storage & Reheating

Fridge: Store in airtight container up to 3 days.
Freezer: Wrap portions tightly, freeze up to 1 month.
Reheat: Bake covered at 325°F or microwave individual servings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use homemade gravy instead of packets?
Yes! A simple roux with flour, butter, milk, and sausage drippings makes it even better.

Do I have to use refrigerated biscuits?
Nope—homemade biscuit dough works too, just cut into rounds before topping.

Can this be made ahead?
Definitely! Assemble the casserole the night before (minus the biscuits), then add biscuits and bake in the morning.
