How to Make Sausage, Egg, and Gravy Biscuit Breakfast Bake
-
Cook the Sausage
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess fat. -
Make the Gravy
Reduce heat to medium-low. Sprinkle gravy mix over the sausage. Add 1 cup evaporated milk and 1 cup water, stirring constantly. Let simmer until thickened. -
Scramble the Eggs
In a separate bowl, whisk eggs with 5 oz. evaporated milk, salt, and pepper. Pour into a skillet and cook over medium heat until just set (don’t overcook — they’ll finish in the oven). -
Layer the Casserole
Grease a 9×13 baking dish. Spread ⅓ of the sausage gravy on the bottom. Add half of the scrambled eggs. Repeat with more gravy, the rest of the eggs, and finish with the remaining gravy on top. -
Top with Biscuits
Arrange refrigerated biscuits in a single layer over the casserole. -
Bake & Serve
Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until biscuits are golden and cooked through. Serve warm.
Serving Suggestions
-
Pair with fresh fruit salad for a lighter contrast.
-
Add hot sauce or salsa for a kick.
-
Serve with a side of hash browns for extra comfort.
Tips for the Best Breakfast Bake
-
Don’t overcook the eggs — they should be slightly underdone before baking.
-
For a creamier gravy, use all evaporated milk instead of part water.
-
If biscuits start to brown too quickly, cover loosely with foil.
Storage
-
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
-
Reheat in the oven for best texture.
-
Not ideal for freezing once baked — biscuits can become soggy.
