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!

- 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.

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.

WHAT if you prebake the biscuits beforehand? Im just worried that they will be TOo soggy.
I have not tried. They aren’t too soggy at all. It all gets cooked 🙂
A great way to serve up breakfast when your in a Rush. Doesnt take much effort and can feed a few people. A nice alternative to biscuits and gravy.

I love sausage, so I couldn’t wait to try this!! It was so easy!! I can’t wait to make it for extended family! They will love it. It was cheesy & you could also add more meat or cheese to make it to your liking.
This was a quick and easy recipe. I read through the comments before making it and saw that some people had trouble with over/undercooking it. I set my timer for 20 minutes and just kept an eye on it. Mine cooked in about 28 minutes.
I also made mine 1/2 sausage and 1/2 bacon. The combination was delicious!
This was so yummy! Had the pleasure of enjoying this for breakfast, family favorite!
Yay! I am glad to hear it’s a favorite!! Thank you so much!
Mine was all gooey inside with egg uncooked in the middle. It was easy to prepare. All the sides was nice brown but to prevent burn on the bottom I may have to lower the temp
Thank you so much for giving it a try 🙂
I will have a house full of guests for our annual reunion, will give this a try for Sunday breakfast, sounds great for a crowd…will try it with crumbled bacon since I will have biscuits and Sausage Gravy on Saturday…thanks for the recipe
