Hey Everyone! It’s Rachel over here at Some Oven Lovin’. Today I’m sharing a family favorite recipe in our house and it will be a winner in your house too! We couldn’t get enough of this delicious egg bake! Some other favorites are Ham & Cheese Overnight Breakfast Lasagna, Sausage & Cheese Hash Brown Breakfast Casserole, Hash Brown Breakfast Casserole and Crock Pot Tater Tot Egg Bake.
Let me tell you.. I love my egg bakes. Always have, always will. But… this one?! This one tops the charts. It combines all things delicious about an egg bake but then add the gravy in and voila! It’s happiness all around.
And.. quite possibly the best part is that you can make this up the day before. You know that feeling when you wake up in the morning and you remember that you made egg casserole the day before and it’s just waiting to be put in the oven. Those are the best days. And, your best day awaits, my friend!

Things You Might Need for this Recipe!

Good taste, I would recommend cooking the biscuits prior. they were a little doughy…
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was absolutely delicious!! Huge hit with my family! Even my picky youngest child loved it! It will definitely be on my morning breakfast best list! Thanks for recipe!!
You’re welcome! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
I’m making this tonight.
Does it make enough gravy? Or how would I increase the amount of gravy?
You could double the gravy portion of the recipe but I haven’t tested this so I don’t know if that will cause it to bubble over when baking!
Can you add a layer of shredded has browns and do you cook the sausage before you add it.
Yes, cook the sausage before you add it to the casserole. You could add hash browns, I would recommend refrigerated/thawed hash browns. It may add to the cooking time.
Do you cook the sausage before you put it together.
Yes
This is one of my favorite recipes! I make it every year for Christmas. My son is now allergic to ingredients in many of the store bought biscuit dough. Do you think it would work with homemade biscuit dough?
I haven’t tried this one with anything but homemade biscuit dough but it would definitely be worth a try! If you give it a shot, let me know how it goes!
Have you tried this recipe with the Pillsberry Grands frozen buttermilk biscuits?
I haven’t with the buttermilk biscuits but any type of Grands biscuits will work, I’m sure it will be delicious!
I was wondering if you happened to try the recipe with the Pillsbury frozen biscuits? If so, how did it turn out?
can I put the gravy on the night before too? I love your recipes and advise!!!!
I haven’t tried that, I don’t know if it’ll cause the biscuits to get soggy or not. If you try it let me know how it goes!
Question… can I make this up and freeze it before cooking? I want to be able to make this a freezer meal to thaw in the fridge overnight and cook in the morning.
FYI, I have been using precooked turkey sausage and premade gravy, so this is almost 100% a dump and stir. I also use reduced fat cheese and fairlife milk to make this as healthy as I can.. I have been searching for this recipe for decades. Thanks so much for sharing, it is now our ONLY go to breakfast casserole. We have made it almost every week for months. There are only 2 of us, so this casserole feeds us for the whole week, if I can restrain my portions.
And my tip, I always add onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms to my eggs, but NOT this one. Made the casserole wet and take forever to cook.
I’m glad you love it! I haven’t tried freezing this one, I’m not sure how the biscuits will hold up after being frozen but you could certainly give it a shot. Let me know how it goes if you do!
My kids love this! I cut into individual servings and freeze them in baggies for quick grab and go breakfasts during the school year.
Great idea! Thanks for sharing Danelle, I’m glad you and your family enjoyed it!
