If you enjoy biscuits and gravy, this biscuits and gravy casserole is absolutely fantastic. Just an easier, casserole form of serving America's most indulgent hearty breakfast. biscuits and gravy breakfast casserole easy

Easy Biscuits and Gravy Bake

I am all about hearty breakfasts, and any time there are biscuits and gravy on the menu I am instantly sold. But, for me, the more simple the recipe, the better in this classic. I like flaky biscuits and a sausage gravy that has just the right amount of bite to it and the perfect creaminess. Which would explain why I am in love with this breakfast casserole and everything that it's about.

If you're looking for an old fashioned southern biscuits and gravy, this might not be your jam, as the biscuits and gravy aren't served separate. But, I will say that if you're looking for how to make gravy for biscuits and gravy, this could for sure be the recipe for you as this gravy is divine – and you definitely could just bake the biscuits up separately and pour the gravy over the biscuits.

One thing is for sure though, if you're looking for a quick and easy biscuits and gravy casserole, though – this is the recipe for you – look no further, it's the best (and yes! Kids even love this one!)

Biscuit and gravy casserole recipe ingredients:

1 lb. breakfast sausage*

2 1/2 c. whole milk
Pinch cayenne pepper
kosher salt to taste

2 tbsp. butter, melted

* I always get the breakfast sausage from the meat counter at my local grocery store – they have the best breakfast sausage!

(Can we applaud this recipe for the sheer fact that you likely have everything on hand other than the sausage, buscuits and whole milk?!)

    I’m wanting to make biscuits and gravy ahead of time and all of the recipes have egg in them. Can I make this the night before?

      Hi Sandy,

      I make this recipe the night before all the time. Mine doesn’t have egg so you’re in the right place! Thanks for stopping by!

      Hi Taylor, For doubling, ideally you would use two separate 9×13 pans. If you cannot do that just keep an eye on it. The biscuits will look like the ones in my pictures when it’s done. Enjoy!

    Biscuits aren’t hard to make. That way you avoid all the chemicals and poisons in the processed ones.

      I don’t understand what the point is of this. If you’re already making a pan of gravy just bake the biscuits at the same time and you’re done. No need to mess up a casserole dish and go through the process of baking this. Basically, biscuits and gravy can’t be improved on.

        Our family loves biscuits and gravy casserole. Maybe it’s a texture thing? Not sure! Thanks for stopping by 🙂

        Lol I don’t understand what the point of commenting on a blog to say why you don’t think it makes sense. Like, scroll on and comment on something you DO like and understand. Seems like a better use of time, rather than being negative on a blog. I and many others don’t mind using one extra dish, and an easy one to wash at that.

        My family loves to do Brunch for our holiday get togethers (which, usually, turn out to be “pitch ins”). These are PERFECT
        For something like that.

    I liked it but my kids not so much. I would probably use half the biscuits next time.

    My husband can’t stand eggs and doesn’t care for sweets so I’m always at a loss for what to make Christmas morning. This will be my second Christmas making this as it was a huge hit last year! Thank you for this recipe, so glad I found it!
