Filled with biscuits, eggs, and sausage, our favorite breakfast casserole is hearty, feeds a crowd, and bakes up in only 30 minutes!
Our Go-to Breakfast Casserole recipe!
We LOVE a good breakfast casserole! This one is filling, takes minutes to put together, and is packed with flavor. Biscuits, eggs, and sausage, there’s something for everyone!
It’s our go-to breakfast bake! We make it for brunch, holidays, and weekends (for breakfast OR dinner). One reason we love it is because the ingredients are SIMPLE!! There are only a handful, and it’s prepped in 5 minutes – just layer and bake!
It can be made ahead of time (the night before) or easily whipped up right before baking – versatile AND delicious!
WHY WE LOVE IT:
- Refrigerate overnight or bake it immediately. Either way, this breakfast casserole is quick and easy!
- Ready in no time! Throw it together from scratch in 5-10 minutes, pop it straight into the oven, and enjoy it 30 minutes later.
- So filling. Biscuits, eggs, and sausage – it’s hearty and packed with flavor!
Ingredients
PREP TIME: 5 minutes
COOK TIME: 25 minutes
- 1 (16.3-ounce) can Grands Biscuits (8 count) – or 16 ounces Homemade Biscuit dough (partially cook before adding the toppings to ensure it cooks thoroughly.)
- 1 (8-ounce) package Jimmy Dean precooked sausage crumbles (or 1 cup crumbled cooked sausage) – or turkey, chicken sausage, or spicy chorizo
- If using regular sausage, cook in a skillet over medium heat cooking the sausage, breaking and flipping, until no longer pink.
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese – or Pepper Jack cheese or Colby Jack cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese – mild or sharp cheddar cheese
- 8 large eggs, beaten – Room temperature eggs incorporate better.
- 1 cup milk, room temperature – We like to use whole milk or 2% milk.
- salt and pepper to taste
- optional veggies – Saute and add spinach, mushrooms, and red bell peppers.
- optional toppings – green onions, bacon bits, sour cream, salsa, or hot sauce
How to Make A Breakfast Casserole
- PREP. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- BISCUITS. Line the bottom of a greased 9×13-inch baking dish with 1 can of refrigerated biscuit dough, firmly pressing to seal and make a bottom crust.
- SAUSAGE. Sprinkle with 8 ounces of cooked sausage, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the crust.
- EGGS. In a medium bowl, whisk 8 eggs, 1 cup milk, and salt and pepper to taste until blended. Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and cheese.
- BAKE. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until set and middle does not jiggle. Let this egg bake recipe stand for 5 minutes before cutting into squares. Serve warm.

Recipe FAQ
Make casserole through step 4, then cover with aluminum foil and refrigerate overnight. Uncover and bake, adding a few additional minutes to the baking time.
Divide leftovers into an airtight container(s) and keep in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
Love this recipe. Made it Christmas morning – so quick to put together. Everyone loved it. Definitely a keeper.
Can you prepare this the night before and bake it in the morning?
Yes, you definitely can. Just cover it with plastic wrap and keep it in the fridge overnight.
425 would have been way too high of temp. I did 375 for 30 min and the bottom was crispy. Still tastes good. Next time I’ll do 350
The biscuit came out doughy! Everything else cooked well. What can I do so the biscuit isn’t doughy?
Doughy for us too, after 30mins. Throwing it back in to see if o can cook it through. Placed back in at 425 on bottom rack…
Can you freeze this
So yummy!! Making this for Christmas this year. Substituting with homemade biscuit dough…. Should be just as yummy!!
I’m sure it will be. Homemade is always tasty!! Hope it’s a hit!
So delicious and works so well made ahead
Easy and delicious! The entire family loves it and that’s why I make it every other week for either breakfast or dinner. Even added green chilies sometimes.
Yes, I love that this one can be a breakfast or a dinner! The addition of green chiles sounds tasty too. Thanks for sharing!
This is our families favorite breakfast! Perfect for large groups and leftovers are so good the next day!
Me and my boys LOVE this easy breakfast recipe. It’s always a hit. I especially love it because it tastes just as delicious the next day.
If I made this the night before and then served would it be an okay thing to serve cold? Like quiche?
You can certainly make it the night before. I haven’t ever tried it cold, so it might be delicious? It is a really easy one to reheat too if you want to serve it warm. You can either reheat the whole casserole in the oven when ready to serve or microwave individual portions.
Easy to make like recipe.
This is amazing. It’s good as left. Overs too. So yummy 😋
