Biscuits and Gravy Hashbrown Breakfast Casserole 🍳🥓🧀
Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 1 package (16 ounces) frozen shredded hashbrowns
- 1 can (16.3 ounces) large flaky biscuits
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions:
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and set aside.
-
Cook the sausage: In a large skillet, cook the ground breakfast sausage over medium heat until fully browned and crumbled. Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside.
-
Prepare the hashbrowns: In the greased baking dish, evenly spread the frozen shredded hashbrowns across the bottom.
-
Prepare the biscuits: Open the can of flaky biscuits and cut each biscuit into quarters. Scatter the biscuit pieces over the hashbrowns in the baking dish.
-
Make the egg mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Pour this egg mixture evenly over the hashbrowns and biscuit pieces in the baking dish.
-
Add sausage and cheese: Sprinkle the cooked sausage evenly over the top of the casserole, then add the shredded cheddar cheese.
-
Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-40 minutes, or until the eggs are set, the biscuits are golden, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
Serve: Allow the casserole to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Optional Gravy Topping:
To make this even more like classic biscuits and gravy, you can prepare a quick gravy to pour over the top once the casserole is baked:
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Optional: 1/2 cup cooked sausage crumbles
Instructions for gravy:
- In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the flour and whisk until smooth, cooking for 1-2 minutes.
- Slowly add the milk, whisking continuously, until the gravy thickens.
- Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. If desired, stir in sausage crumbles for extra flavor.
- Pour the gravy over the casserole just before serving.
Tips:
- Make ahead: You can assemble the casserole the night before, refrigerate it, and bake it in the morning for a hassle-free breakfast.
- Add veggies: If you like, you can add some diced onions, bell peppers, or spinach to the sausage mixture for added flavor and nutrients.
- Cheese variations: Feel free to use other cheeses like Monterey Jack or pepper jack for a different flavor profile.
