Description
Sausage-Loaded Biscuit Gravy Bake combines creamy sausage gravy with fluffy biscuits in one easy casserole. It’s a comforting, hearty meal perfect for brunch or casual gatherings.
Ingredients
1 pound breakfast sausage (turkey or plant-based options work well too)
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 ½ cups whole milk
½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
½ teaspoon black pepper (adjust to taste)
1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8-count, large biscuits)
1 tablespoon melted butter (optional, for brushing)
1 tablespoon chopped parsley or chives (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare the Baking Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks, until fully browned. Drain any excess grease if needed.
- Make the Gravy: Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage and stir to coat. Cook for 1 minute to create a roux. Gradually pour in the milk, stirring constantly. Simmer for 5–7 minutes until thickened into gravy. Season with salt and pepper.
- Assemble the Casserole: Pour the sausage gravy into the prepared baking dish. Cut each biscuit into halves or quarters and arrange the pieces on top of the gravy.
- Optional: Brush with Butter: For a golden finish, brush the biscuits with melted butter.
- Bake: Bake for 25–30 minutes until biscuits are golden brown.
- Rest and Serve: Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley or chives.
Notes
Gravy Consistency: Adjust thickness with more flour for thicker gravy or more milk for thinner gravy.
Sausage Options: Use turkey sausage or plant-based sausage as preferred.
Serving Suggestions: Serve with scrambled eggs or fruit salad for a complete meal.
