There isn’t a better way to start the day than with a big ol’ scoop of of biscuits and gravy casserole. I mean, you’ve got eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuits, and gravy all in the same dish. Y’all, I couldn’t ask for more. I use Grands biscuit dough and a packet of peppered gravy mix to keep this biscuit and gravy casserole recipe simple, but you can go the homemade white gravy route. Either way, don’t expect leftovers!

How to Make A Biscuits And Gravy Breakfast Casserole
Step 1: Cut the biscuit dough into quarters, then add the pieces to the bottom of the greased dish. Spread the cooked sausage and bacon bits over the top of the biscuit dough.
Step 2: Whisk the eggs and milk in a mixing bowl, then season the mixture with salt and pepper. Layer on half of the cheddar cheese in the dish, and pour the whisked egg mixture over the cheese.
Step 3: Pour gravy over the eggs, and finally sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
Step 4: Bake your easy biscuits and gravy casserole until the biscuits are cooked through and the eggs are set.
PRO TIP: If you’re using homemade biscuits, make sure to use the biscuit dough and not the fully-made biscuits. This is a MUST.

Ingredients
- 1/2 lb bacon
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 lb sausage
- 8 Grands biscuits
- 2 cups cheddar cheese separated
- 2 3/4 oz peppered gravy mix packet makes 2 cups
Instructions
- Cook bacon, crumble into smaller pieces then set aside. Preheat the oven to 350. Grease a 13×9 casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- Whisk together eggs and milk then season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Brown the sausage in a skillet until cooked through making sure to crumble into pieces then drain and set aside.
- Make gravy according to packet instructions and set aside.
- Cut biscuit dough into quarters then add to the bottom of the greased dish.
- Spread cooked sausage and bacon bits over the top of the biscuit dough.
- Next layer 1 cup of cheddar cheese over meat. Pour whisked eggs over the cheese and finally pour gravy over the top and finally the remaining cheese on top.
- Bake for 50 minutes, or until biscuits are cooked through and eggs are set up then serve warm.
Notes
- Start with a well-greased baking dish. It’ll keep everything from sticking and make it easier to scoop out clean slices.
- Cut your biscuit dough evenly. If they’re all the same size, they’ll bake up nice and even without leaving you with doughy spots.
- Brown the sausage and bacon in the same skillet. Don’t clean it in between! Those bits at the bottom add flavor. You can even make the gravy in the same pan.
- If your gravy ends up too thick, splash in some milk or cream. If it’s too thin, a little flour will fix it up quick.
- Keep an eye on the oven, boos. This sausage biscuits and gravy casserole bakes longer than your usual breakfast!
- Fridge: Store your biscuits and gravy casserole right in the baking dish, covered tight. It’ll keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Freezer: Let it cool all the way down, then move it to a freezer-safe container. You can freeze it for up to 2 months.
- Reheating: If it’s frozen, thaw it in the fridge overnight. For the oven, cover with foil and bake at 350°F until heated through. About 20 minutes. For quick single servings, pop them in the microwave in 20-second bursts until warm.

Fo sho! Assemble everything up to the baking step, cover it with plastic wrap, and stick it in the fridge. When you’re ready to bake, let it sit at room temp for 30-40 minutes, then bake like normal.
The casserole prolly needed more time in the oven or the biscuit pieces were cut too big. Make sure your biscuit dough is evenly sized and check the center before pulling it out.

Hey Jocelyn, I want to make the sausage &bisquits casserole for this weekend.my son loves my biscuits and gravy and my grandson loves sausage,eggs and cheese so this recipe looks like a winner! My question is, you say to cut the biscuit dough into quarters but don’t say how to place them in the casserole dish! Do I lay them flat in rows or just place then haphazardly across the bottom? I would so appreciate a prompt reply because I want to make it this evening to cook for their breakfast tomorrow when they come by to fish in my pond! Thank you in advance, Bob the Boo! rahayes57 @yahoo.com
You can just add them randomly to the bottom. We also have a full how to section with images in the blog post to walk you through it. Let me know how it turns out for you.
I don’t really like sausage, can I just use bacon?
Yes you can definitely use bacon.
Do I let gravy cool before pouring it on
Let it cool for 10-15 minutes if you can.
