Servings: 6 servings
Calories: 475kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups diced potatoes fresh or frozen
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- ½ pound breakfast sausage
- 4 eggs
- 2 tablespoons butter plus more to grease baking dish
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 10 oz can refrigerated biscuits I used Pillsbury Grands 5 count OR
- Small batch buttermilk biscuits
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease the inside of a square pan with butter or non-stick spray.
- Heat a non-stick pan, or other skillet, over medium-high heat and add one tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add your potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 9 minutes, or until potatoes are fully cooked and lightly browned. Place them in the bottom of your prepared pan.
- Place the pan back on the heat and cook your breakfast sausage, breaking it up with a spatula or wooden spoon. Cook until all the pink color is gone and the sausage is browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. Scatter the sausage on top of the potatoes.
- Whisk your eggs. Place the pan back on the stove and decrease heat to medium. Cook your eggs until soft scrambled. You want them to still look a bit "wet" as they will continue to cook in the oven. Scatter the eggs on top of the sausage.
- In the same pan, over medium-high heat, melt your butter and sprinkle flour over it. Whisk them together and cook for about a minute. Continue whisking while you pour in half of the milk. Whisk vigorously to be sure there are no lumps.
- Whisk in the remaining milk and simmer until thick enough that when you run a spatula through it you can see the bottom of the pan, about 2 to 3 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper to your liking. Pour the gravy all over everything in the baking dish.
- Cut your store bought biscuits into quarters and halves and place all over the casserole.
- Alternatively, you can make my small batch biscuit recipe and do the same thing.
- Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until gravy is bubbling and biscuits are golden brown. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
If the biscuits are browning more than you like, tent with aluminum foil to keep from burning.
If you are crazy about gravy (hi, it’s me), feel free to double the gravy and set half aside for pouring over individual servings.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheat individual servings in the microwave on high for 30 to 90 seconds, or until hot in the center, depending on the size of the serving.
