Sausage and Gravy Breakfast Casserole | Can't Stay Out of the Kitchen

Sausage and Gravy Breakfast Casserole

Teresa Ambra

I love it when a brand new recipe turns out even better than hoped for. That’s what happened when I made this Sausage and Gravy Breakfast Casserole for a Ladies’ breakfast at our church a few weeks ago. I was looking on Pinterest ahead of time to find assorted breakfast casseroles to make because they are easy, can be prepared the day ahead, and the gal who recruited me for this job wanted “protein.” I stumbled upon this recipe and it really intrigued me, so I decided to give it a go. I just couldn’t resist the idea of making a layered breakfast casserole that tasted like eating biscuits and gravy.

Follow Me On Instagram!

As it turned out, the Ladies’ Conference was first postponed, then delayed, and finally shortened due to several ice and snow storms that whipped through Dallas for several days during that period. (Yes, you heard that right, Dallas and ice storms!!!!) I had all this food prepared and the roads were too icy and dangerous to travel on, so the food was delayed an additional 24 hours and served on Sunday instead….but this time, not just for the ladies but for the whole church!

I made sure all the guys coming through the food line saw this particular casserole out of all the different ones I made and asked them to try it. I surveyed at least 20 people and without exception, everyone LOVED it. Not only that, even the kids and gals who tried Sausage and Gravy Breakfast Casserole enjoyed it as well.

I actually made two large casseroles for the church (equivalent to three total casseroles) and one casserole for us. I baked the one for us after about 5-6 hours of refrigeration and all I can say after eating one bite was that this casserole really delivers. It’s like eating biscuits and gravy, but the eggs and cheese add a delicious twist by making this more like a breakfast casserole. My husband also had several large servings.

Sausage and Gravy Breakfast Casserole is absolutely one of the best breakfast casseroles you’ll ever eat. If you like biscuits and sausage gravy, then you’ll love this version with eggs and cheese added. It’s a great breakfast idea for holidays like Easter or Father’s Day, or other special occasion brunches or breakfasts. After you make up a batch for your family, I believe you’ll agree.

Servings 12
Calories 231 kcal

Equipment

  • 1 9x13" glass baking dish
  • 1 sharp knife to cut biscuits in quarters
  • 1 large skillet
  • 1 hamburger chopper
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 whisk
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • 1 sauce pan
  • 1 wooden spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 containers Pillsbury Buttermilk Grands, Jr. refrigerated biscuits 18 total ounces
  • 1 lb. mild pork sausage cooked and drained
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 cups 2% milk
  • 1 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • 2.75 oz. pkg. Pioneer sausage-flavored peppered gravy mix
  • 1 tsp. Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Cut biscuits in fourths.
  • Place in the bottom of a greased 9x13” baking dish.
  • Cook sausage in a large skillet.
  • Use a hamburger chopper to break down sausage into small pieces.
  • Crumble cooked sausage over top.
  • Sprinkle cheddar cheese over top.
  • Combine eggs and milk in a mixing bowl; whisk well.
  • Pour egg mixture evenly over top of cheese in casserole dish.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Prepare gravy mix according to package directions.
  • Once thickened, spread over top of the cheese mixture in baking dish.
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Bake at 350° approximately one hour or until bubbly and cooked through.

Notes

NOTE: The directions for my gravy mix called for 1 ½ cups of water to be brought to boiling. Stir the contents of the gravy mix into ½ cup water and whisk to incorporate. Once water comes to a boil, add gravy/water mix and whisk until thickened. (I was making four packages at once so it took about 5 minutes for the gravy to thicken appropriately).
 
NOTE: Preparation time does not include time required to refrigerate overnight.
 
NOTE: You can also bake this casserole immediately without refrigerating it overnight. Bake time will probably shorten to 30-45 minutes.

    This was yummy! I’ve never made spaghetti squash before and I’m not sure if it’s supposed to me soft or not when it’s done. My squash was on the larger side so maybe I should have cooked it longer.

  • June

    HI, I’ve made this several times and it’s always a big hit especially Christmas morning. My question is since ovens vary in temperature, how can you tell when it’s done? Does it need to start to brown on top? When it no longer looks shiny? I only want to cook it until it’s done because if you cook eggs too long, they tend to get rubbery.

    1. Teresa

      June 10, 2019 at 7:23 am

      Hi, June. I think the only true way to check it is to insert a toothpick or knife into the casserole. The biscuits need to be cooked on the bottom, the eggs need to be cooked & the recipe needs to be bubbly. I have found that electric ovens tend to cook faster than gas ovens. Just saying. If the casserole was cold (refrigerated overnight), I don’t think any oven will get the casserole hot enough (all the way through) until at minimum 45 minutes has gone by. But it takes most ovens a full hour. If the contents have been made up and you’re not refrigerating this overnight, start checking at 30 minutes. Put a knife down to the bottom and see how much goo comes off the knife. While there should be gravy residue, if there is egg residue, you need to keep cooking. That’s the best I can tell you. So glad you and your family enjoy this casserole.

      Hi Barb. I’m sure you could make it with homemade biscuits. If you didn’t mind the extra work, it would probably be terrific this way. I would just make sure to shake off excess flour before using them. Hope it turns out well for you.

    Can you make this with real gravy? I’ve never made gravy out of a package

    1. Teresa

      January 8, 2018 at 9:19 am

      Hi, Matt. I’m sure you can, I’m just not sure how many cups of gravy you need to make. You may have to find out how many cups the package makes and then substitute accordingly.

    2. Teresa

      January 8, 2018 at 9:20 am

      Matt, you will also have to make a milk gravy, not a brown gravy.

    3. AJ

      February 11, 2018 at 1:28 pm

      I find that the packaged gravy is much more flavorful and better overall. I always add 1/2-1 entire tube of mild country sausage to it once it’s cooked and drained. Homemade gravy takes too long and just isn’t as good. Trust us. Lol

      1. Teresa

        February 11, 2018 at 2:18 pm

        Thanks for the tips, AJ.

    Instructions say to cut the biscuit dough into pieces and line the pan, do you mean just set the pieces in? Or are they to be pressed in?
    Thanks!

    1. Teresa

      December 18, 2017 at 1:30 pm

      Hi, Sandra, I just set the pieces in. I didn’t press them into the casserole. Hope that helps.

  • Melody

    March 18, 2017 at 6:03 pm

    Can you make the sausage and gravy mix together and pour over instead of making gravy mix by itself. I’m going to try it in the morning, thank you

    1. Teresa

      March 19, 2017 at 1:03 pm

      That may work, Melody, if you add the sausage and gravy mix after layering with the cheese (when you would normally be pouring the gravy mix over top).

  • Lori

    Do you bake this covered or uncovered for an hour after refrigerating it overnight?

    1. Teresa

      October 8, 2016 at 7:11 pm

      I think I bake this uncovered, Lori. But if it looks like it’s getting too browned, then I would tent it with foil.

    This casserole is so yummy and satisfying for breakfast (or supper!) I have made it a couple of times with a batch of homemade biscuit dough when I didn’t have the canned biscuits on hand. While it takes a little longer to make, it turns out just as delicious! My family loves this! Thanks for sharing the recipe!

    1. Teresa

      September 22, 2016 at 8:25 am

      Hi Dmarie. I love the idea of making this recipe with “real” biscuits. I’ll have to try it that way next time. So glad you are enjoying the recipe.

    1. Teresa

      September 12, 2016 at 8:17 am

      Hi Jessica. I really would not recommend freezing it. It will last in your refrigerator several days (after baking), but I wouldn’t freeze it because I’m afraid the biscuits used would not hold their consistency and get kind of gooey.

    This looks amazing. And plan to make it. Is there a way to add diced up potatoes. Do you think the hour cooking time would cook the potatoes enough? Or even baking it right after its prepared would the cooking time fully heat the potatoes?

    1. Teresa

      June 15, 2016 at 7:24 pm

      I’m sure you could add potatoes, but you do need to be prepared to add some additional time. You can certainly bake this right after preparing it.

      Hi, Mikki. You may be able to do that but it the casserole may not have enough moisture and cook up a lot differently. Unless you’re allergic to eggs or just hate them, I’d make it with eggs. Otherwise, you can always give it a try and see how it works. You will still have to use milk or something to make the custard like layer with the cheese. Hope it turns out for you.

    I made this last school year for a teacher’s breakfast at my daughter’s school & it was a huge hit. Tomorrow there is a back to school breakfast for the teacher’s and they asked me to make it again! Last time I made one for the school and one for us to eat and this time I split ours into two smaller casseroles. One for my husband and I (my daughter is now a vegetarian) and another for a neighbor. Thank you!

    Ok Teresa…. I’m baaaack! 🙂 I made the casserole for Father’s Day and WOW… what a success! Everyone absolutely LOVED it! I used a 13 x 9 glass casserole dish and thought there would be more than enough for 8 people (was 12 servings) and it was gone in less than an hour lol! I even had 2nd on this one! My new go to breakfast/brunch casserole. ps… I followed the recipe as stated and did it the night before and cooked for an hour the next morning while I was getting ready… couldn’t have been easier. Thanks so much for the great find!

      I’m so glad you enjoyed this tasty casserole so much! I’ll go ahead and change the serving amount to 12. Especially if you serve any other food with it, it does make a large amount. This is such a good casserole for holidays and especially for guys–they just love it! P.S. I have several other breakfast casseroles that are really nice. I hope you give them a try too! 🙂
