Tips for making Biscuits and Gravy Casserole

  • Regular breakfast sausage is fine. Use hot sausage if you want a little heat. Sage-flavored sausage is also good.
  • I personally prefer a NON-Grands Pillsbury refrigerated biscuit. They don’t puff up as much as the Grands which tend to overwhelm the casserole.
  • This recipe can be assembled the night before and baked in the morning.

Biscuits and Gravy Casserole has all the flavor of the southern classic-Biscuits and Sausage Gravy, in casserole form and it couldn't be easier to make.
PREP: 20 minutes
COOK: 30 minutes
TOTAL: 50 minutes
SERVINGS: 12

Ingredients

  • 1 (8-count) tube refrigerated biscuits, best not to use Grands becasue they puff up so much
  • 1 pound breakfast sausage
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 cups milk divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 7 eggs
  • 1 (8-ounce) block Colby Jack cheese shredded

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9X13-inch baking dish.
  • Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces and scatter biscuit pieces across the bottom of the baking dish.
  • Cook sausage in a large pan, crumbling it with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Once fully cooked, remove it with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate. I like to leave about 1/4 cup of sausage in the pan for the gravy.
  • Add butter to the grease in the pan and set pan over medium heat. Add flour and stir and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Gradually whisk in 2 cups of milk. Add garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Simmer until thickened. Remove from heat.
  • Whisk together eggs with remaining 1/2 cup milk in a medium bowl. Season with a little salt and pepper.
  • Sprinkle sausage over biscuits. Sprinkle 1/2 of cheese over sausage.
  • Pour egg mixture on top, followed by gravy and remaining cheese. Bake for 30 minutes.

  1. I made this because we got a ton of breakfast sausage with our hog order from the butcher. I don’t like biscuits and gravy, but I thought I’d give it a try because my husband does. THIS WAS AMAZING!! I loved it and our two kids (7 and 9) fought over the leftovers the next two days. I also only had Grands! Biscuits, so I cut them into 9’s (2 cuts each direction on the biscuit) and they came out perfect. There were enough to cover the bottom of the dish and I didn’t have to adjust the baking time. Thank you so much foe this recipe!

    This is sooo good. Used grands biscuits, just cut them in smaller pieces, came out great. Baked a few minutes longer. Added onions to the sausage as it cooked. Yummy. Reheated really well, too. Definitely a keeper recipe. Thank you for sharing

  3. My family just finished eating this. It was fantastic. I made it as a trial run to see if I wanted to serve at Christmas brunch. It was so easy and tasty, it is for sure making the cut to serve for Christmas! Grands were the only rolls at my grocery store, so I cut them into 8’s and only used 6. That seemed to work as a compromise.

    Made this with some Berkshire pork black pepper bacon and crescent rolls cut up instead. Turned out great!

  5. Just made this today and unfortunately had to use Grand as that is all I had, definitely agree to let it cook longer as the biscuits didn’t fully set, but still delicious after, may throw some other stuff in it next time. Time to expirament

  6. I’m making this dish tonight, I have doubled the ingredients completely and looks just as good as it did the first time I made this meal as one dish. My family and some of the kids friends love this it is soooo good!! Thank you for sharing this recipe 😌

    I made this as written the first time. Hubby and Father like it. Hubby said add it to the rotation but it needs your touch. 2nd time I added onion to the sausage while it was cooking and added 1/4 tsp of ground sage. I also added 1 cup shredded cheddar to the cheese. ( only 6 eggs in this one because that is all I had at the time). It was simply devine.

  8. Everybody I make this recipe for absolutely loves it. I have a guest coming that has a but allergy, food allergies are new to me. Is there anything I need to be worried about?
    Thank you

  9. I accidentally put the gravy over the biscuits, before the egg mixture. I was going to ask you if it would be ok, but it’s already done. However, I will be sure to comment the turnout, in case anyone else messes up 🙂

  10. Would I be able to do this recipe to feed closer to 15 people using a Pyrex dish?
    Would I need to double the whole recipe or it doesn’t work that way?

    1. I’d use two 9 X 13 baking dishes (easier to serve both ends of he table 🙂 ) Also I’d make the recipe twice. Sometimes by doubling the recipe it doesn’t come out right.

  11. I am planning on making this for Christmas breakfast. I have made other breakfast casserole dishes and found that if I bake them in oversized muffin tins, they bake quicker and I am able to customize each “muffin” to each persons likings (I have a family member who doesn’t care for cheese for breakfast). That being said, has anyone tried this and, if not, do you think it would work?

    1. I used over sized muffins tins to make individual casseroles and it worked beautifully. Baked them for 25 minutes. I was able to make ones without cheese as well. Everyone loved them and suggested that fresh mushrooms be added to the gravy.

      1. This stuff is amazing. I’ve made it several times now because it was such a big hit in our home with my family and with friends. Leftovers are just as good.

  12. WOW!!! Just made this! Sitting here eating it. Great recipe! I diced a large potato and fried it separately till almost done and put in with sausage and then the rest of ingredients. Used grands biscuits. Awesome!!!!

  13. This recipe is amazing, we cooked up some bacon, chopped it fine, added it to the gravy mixture, totally amazing as well. This one will be a staple for easy dinners or early breakfast

    This looks super good for sure 🙂 Might have to make this when we go to MB at the end of the month but for sure be more than just the two of us but reheating it the next day or the next then we may be able to eat most of it or at least try?
    I think I have seen can biscuits come with less in them and just maybe we could eat it all at one sitting and just cut down on the number of eggs and other items and should work ou just fine and if any is left over I can have it the next morning.
    Thanks for posting this one for sure 🙂

  15. Well,I haven’t gotten to try your recipe yet,but it sounds great. Why do we feel the need to bash another if your not satisfied with the recipe given. We have choices and if this is not to you’re liking,then look for another. We need to be nicer to each other, life is just to short. Some of the comments were just not loving and food needs to be made with LOVE. So, if your angry and life is being rough on you, Have a good meal and share it someone else. Company and good food is good for the soul!!!!

    1. I completely agree. If you don’t like a recipe there are enough recipes out there… find another. Be kind! We made this and love it!

      Stephanie,
      I totally agree with everything you said. I’m always searching for different recipes, and if I come across one I may not want to try I leave it alone.

    This recipe was sent to me by my sister in law. I made it and wow! Super delish and so simple to make. I did use grands and really not an issue. Even better on day two! I think next time i will let set over night and bake next morning. Definitely good dish for a brunch!

  17. I can’t understand why some of you can’t read a simple recipe it clearly states 7 eggs I made this and I just have to say it was delicious I will definitely be making this again .
