This Biscuits and Gravy Casserole includes eggs, sausage gravy and biscuits, baked together to make the ultimate one-pan breakfast!
I’m telling you, this Biscuits and Gravy Casserole is the best mash-up since peanut butter and jelly! I absolutely love breakfast casseroles, and throwing my favorite biscuits and gravy recipe into the mix created just plain genius! You can make the entire casserole in advance, or even freeze it, making it perfect for holidays or breakfast with company.
How to make Biscuits and Gravy Casserole:
- Brown sausage in a large saucepan. Use a paper towel to blot out most of the grease from the pan. Add flour, butter, and half & half. Cook on medium-low, stirring often, for several minutes until thickened.
- Cut biscuit dough into pieces and scatter half of the biscuit dough along the bottom of a 9×13 inch pan.
- Mix eggs, milk and spices and pour mixture over the biscuits. Spoon sausage gravy on top, then sprinkle with cheese. Add remaining biscuit dough pieces on top.
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 35-45 minutes or until eggs have set and biscuits are golden.
About the Biscuits:
I HIGHLY recommend making this easy homemade biscuit recipe over the store-bought! They are incredibly EASY and fast, and taste WAY better! (You can use a tube of store-bought refrigerated biscuit dough, if needed).
Easy homemade biscuits:
- 2 ½ cups flour
- 1 Tablespoon + 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup shortening
- 1 cup milk
Stir flour, baking powder and salt together. Add shortening and cut in with forks or a pastry blender until mixture is small crumbs. Stir in milk to form a dough. Pour dough onto a floured surface and shape into a rectangle about ¾ inch thick. Cut into small ½ inch pieces.
Make Ahead and Freezing Instructions:
To Make Ahead: Prepare casserole and just before baking, cover and refrigerate for up to one day. Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before baking.
To Freeze: Allow baked casserole to cool completely, then freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then cover with foil and rewarm in the oven.

HAVE YOU TRIED THIS RECIPE?!
RATE and COMMENT below! I would love to hear your experience.
I made for my family and our parish Priests. Everyone loved it. I think I will make some additional gravy to serve on the side.
My eggs took 45+ minutes to set and by the time they did my biscuits were almost if not burnt. What should I do next time? We live about 5200 above sea level…..
My daughter has Celiac’s.
I’ve learned tricks for making gravies gluten free.
Any thoughts on making the biscuits gluten-free?
If I double this, would I use 2 cans of biscuits? It still says one when I hit the 2x. Also, would it change time to cook?
Yes! 2 cans of biscuits.
Would this work with frozen store bought biscuits?
Yes!
Made this on a limb. It was a family hit!! They are begging for me to make it again!! Also super simple
We made this for Christmas breakfast, and my family LOVED it. Making it right now for a Friday night meal. Yum-O!
We strayed from our go-to Christmas morning casserole to make this biscuits and gravy casserole and all I can say is Thank You! It was delicious and my family raved about it! Unlike the previous casserole, I loved how I could make this in advance, which made the whole Christmas morning more enjoyable – not just me in the kitchen prepping food. This will for sure be our new go-to for Christmas!
Made this yesterday for a potluck and had nothing to bring home! Everyone was so impressed! The flavors, textures, and combination was awesome. Highly recommend following the biscuit recipe. It seriously gives you that punch! Making this for Christmas Eve breakfast for sure!
So much goodness in this recipe. Your biscuits and gravy have become a family staple so I was excited to come across this casserole. I love how it’s all in one dish – eggs, gravy, and the biscuits. We loved it!
