🍽️ Biscuits and Gravy Casserole
Ingredients:
- 1 lb breakfast sausage (pork or turkey)
- 2 cups milk
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp salt (adjust to taste)
- 1 (16 oz) can refrigerated biscuit dough (like Pillsbury)
- Optional: 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Optional: chopped green onions or parsley for garnish
Instructions:
1. Preheat Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Cook Sausage
- In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Break it up into crumbles as it cooks. Drain excess fat.
3. Make the Gravy
- Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage and stir to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to cook out the raw flour taste.
- Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
- Cook and stir until the gravy thickens (about 5 minutes).
- Season with salt and black pepper.
4. Assemble Casserole
- Cut the biscuit dough into quarters or halves (depending on size).
- Place half of the biscuit pieces in the bottom of the baking dish.
- Pour half of the sausage gravy over the biscuits.
- If using, sprinkle half the shredded cheese.
- Repeat layers with remaining biscuits, gravy, and cheese.
5. Bake
- Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes or until biscuits are golden and the gravy is bubbly.
6. Serve
- Garnish with green onions or parsley if desired. Serve warm.
