Ingredients
Scale
1 pound breakfast sausage
1 can (8 count) refrigerated biscuits
3 cups frozen hashbrowns, thawed
6 large eggs
2 cups milk
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Spread thawed hashbrowns evenly on the bottom, drizzle with melted butter, season with salt and pepper, and bake for 10–12 minutes until lightly golden.
In a skillet, brown the sausage over medium heat until crumbly. Stir in butter and flour to make a roux.
Gradually whisk in milk and simmer for 3–5 minutes until thickened. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika.
Pour the sausage gravy evenly over the baked hashbrowns.
In a bowl, whisk eggs and 1/2 cup milk, then pour over the gravy layer.
Sprinkle shredded cheese over the top, then arrange biscuit pieces evenly.
Bake uncovered for 30–35 minutes, until biscuits are golden and casserole is set.
Cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
Notes
Assemble the casserole the night before and refrigerate overnight for easy baking in the morning.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for best texture.
Use spicy sausage or add jalapeños for a bolder flavor.
Vegetarian option: substitute sausage with mushrooms and spinach.
