How to Make Breakfast Casserole with Biscuits
1. Prepare
Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
2. Make the Biscuit Crust
Line the bottom of the baking dish with the biscuit dough, gently pressing into the pan so it covers the entire surface.
3. Cook the Sausage
Cook the sausage in a large pan. Break up the meat as it cooks using a wooden spoon or spatula, then drain the fat and set the sausage aside.
4. Make the Egg Mixture
Whisk the eggs, milk, and seasonings together in a medium bowl.
5. Assemble
Layer the sausage on top of the biscuits, then pour the egg mixture over it. Sprinkle the cheese on top of the eggs.
6. Bake
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the eggs are set. If the top starts to get too dark too quickly, tent it with foil so it doesn’t burn.
7. Serve
If you’re using scallions, chop them and sprinkle them on the casserole before serving.
How to Store Breakfast Casserole with Biscuits
Let the casserole cool before storing it in the fridge. If you put it in too soon, the heat will cause condensation, which can make the dish soggy. Once it’s cooled, wrap the casserole tightly in plastic wrap or foil or transfer it to an airtight storage container.
Refrigerate for 3 to 4 days and reheat in the oven or microwave. You can also freeze this recipe for up to 3 months; let it thaw in the fridge before reheating.
