Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound breakfast sausage.
  • 1 can refrigerated biscuits 8-10 count.
  • 6 large eggs.
  • 1/2 cup whole milk.
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour.
  • 2 cups milk for gravy.
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • A pinch of red pepper flakes.

Instructions
 

  • Brown the Sausage
  • Put the sausage in a large skillet. Cook it over medium heat. Break it into small crumbles. Cook until it is no longer pink.
  • Make the Gravy Base
  • Do not drain the sausage fat. Sprinkle flour over the cooked meat. Stir it well for one minute. This helps cook out the raw flour taste.
  • Add the Milk
  • Slowly pour in the two cups of milk. Keep stirring as you pour. This prevents lumps from forming. Let it simmer until it gets thick.
  • Season the Gravy
  • Add salt and lots of black pepper. Add red pepper flakes for a kick. Turn off the heat. Set the skillet aside for a moment.
  • Prep the Biscuits
  • Open your can of biscuits. Cut each biscuit into small pieces. Usually, quarters work the best. Grease your baking dish well.
  • Layer the Pan
  • Place the biscuit pieces in the dish. Spread them out in an even layer. Pour the sausage gravy over the biscuits.
  • Whisk the Eggs
  • In a bowl, whisk eggs and milk. Add a little salt and pepper. Pour this egg mixture over the gravy.
  • Add the Cheese
  • Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top. Use as much as you like. Cheese makes everything taste much better.
  • Bake the Casserole
  • Heat your oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes. The top should be golden brown. The eggs must be set and firm.
  • Let it Rest
  • Take the dish out of the oven. Let it sit for five minutes. This makes it easier to cut. Serve it warm to your guests.

Notes

  • Use high-quality pork sausage for better flavor.
  • Do not drain the fat from the sausage.
  • The fat makes the gravy very creamy.
  • Cut biscuits into equal sizes for even baking.
  • Whisk the eggs very well until bubbly.
  • Add extra pepper if you like spice.
  • Try using spicy sausage for more heat.
  • Make sure the gravy is thick before layering.
  • Grease the pan so nothing sticks.
  • Serve it immediately while it is hot.
