The Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make Biscuits and Gravy Breakfast Casserole (the exact measurements and full recipe instructions are below in the easy to print recipe card):
- Refrigerated biscuit dough – use large biscuits, such as Grands
- Bulk sausage – we use a mild breakfast sausage.
- Shredded cheddar cheese – you could use any shredded cheese you like, but we go for cheddar.
- Eggs
- Milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Peppered gravy mix – the full package should make 2 cups of gravy. Most will just call for water to make the gravy.
How to Make Biscuits and Gravy Casserole
Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a 13×9 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until completely browned. Drain off the fat and set the sausage aside.
Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces and spread over the bottom of the prepared pan in an even layer.
Add the cooked sausage over the biscuit dough.
Next, sprinkle the cheese over the sausage.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk; add salt and pepper to taste, then pour the mixture all over the casserole.
Make the gravy according to the package instructions. Pour the prepared gravy over the whole casserole.
Bake the casserole for 40-45 minutes until puffed up and golden brown on top.
Make Ahead Instructions
You can easily make this casserole the night before. Just put the whole casserole together as directed, but instead of baking it, cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate over night.
In the morning, remove the casserole from the refrigerator and heat the oven. Bake the casserole as directed, but you’ll need to add about 20 minutes to the baking time. Check the casserole often towards the end of the baking time to be sure it doesn’t burn.
How to Store Leftovers
Keep the leftover casserole in the refrigerator covered with plastic. It will keep for up to three days. Reheat individual servings in the microwave in 30 second cooking intervals until warm.

I make this for our Christmas brunch and the post-Prom brunch we host every year. It’s everyone’s favorite.
I loved this recipe. I added a bit more egg because I like an eggy breakfast. But it turned out so yum.
I bought spicy sausage on accident this time but I have made it once before and it’s great both ways. love it!!
Delicious
We made this for a group of people the morning of our sons weddings, and it was a huge hit….. EVERYONE LOVED IT!!
Love it! Is there any type of biscuits and gravy casserole recipe that can be cooked in the crockpot? We are having a brunch potluck and I would love to take this but I have to be to work first thing in the morning. Would love a way to prepare it in a crockpot so it can be nice and warm for the brunch
I have an oblong crock pot, baked breakfast enchildas in oven in a disposble cake pan, then put in crock pot to keep warm. maybe this would work for this casserole.
This recipe looks so yummy that I can’t wait to make it! As I read it through it just seemed to me that the sausage is crying out to have some added chopped onions. Just a thought. I will definitely make this and I know I am going to love it!
I will be making this and portioning it out in freezer containers for a quick breakfast. Yum!
Please ignore my comment this is the wrong recipe I didn’t mean to ask where the beef is on this recipe.
Where is the beef?
We tried this out tonight it was awesome! We have plenty of leftovers for tomorrow’s breakfast. YUMMMMM.
My son gave me this recipe. Both he and I had made it. I have taken to Church functions and everyone loved it! We love it, very easy to make and filling too. Hope House, which is a shelter house for women asked for easy make ahead recipes and I gave them this. They loved it also.
Can you do homemade biscuits? I’m not a huge fan of the grands…. Will it cook the same?
I have never tried homemade, but should work fine. Let me know how it turns out.
Delicious & easy casserole! I’ve made this several times since finding the recipe. Leftovers taste just as good as on the day it was made. Highly recommended if you are looking for easy & delicious.
Do you have to cook the biscuits first?
No, the refrigerated dough will cook in the casserole.
What can I use in place of the eggs?
Do you think this could be prepared the night before and baked in the morning?
I going to cook and re-heat.
I was^ going to cook and re-heat.
She wrote an entire section before the recipe and instructions that gives directions for preparing the night before and baking in the oven. Add twenty minutes to bake time. Also directions on storing after.
This was definitely delicious! I added bacon on the top.. I also used onion, garlic powder and sage. I will be making it again! Thank you!
Made this for a breakfast for dinner potluck and everyone loved it!!
Delicious! Next time I’ll probably add some onion, too. Can you freeze the leftovers? There’s just 2 of us, and this recipe makes a lot!
I cut in half and made 8×8 pan. I used the 5 pk of biscuits. Worked great
Very good! I added onion and garlic! Definitely a keeper and I will make again!
