Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground breakfast sausage
- 6 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 pieces Large refrigerated biscuits (e.g., canned biscuit dough)
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, chopped (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground breakfast sausage, breaking it into small crumbles, until fully browned and cooked through (about 7-9 minutes). Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside.
Step 3
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Step 4
Spread the cooked sausage evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the sausage.
Step 5
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and cheese in the baking dish.
Step 6
Carefully arrange the refrigerated biscuit dough pieces on top of the egg mixture, spacing them evenly.
Step 7
Melt the butter and brush it over the tops of the biscuits to help them bake up golden and flaky.
Step 8
Place the casserole into the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30-35 minutes, or until the eggs are set, the biscuits are golden brown, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 9
Remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped green onions, if desired, for a fresh finish.
Step 10
Slice and serve warm. Enjoy your flavorful biscuit topped breakfast casserole!
