Description
A hearty and comforting casserole that combines crispy hashbrowns, savory sausage gravy, and fluffy biscuit pieces into one satisfying dish. Perfect for a fulfilling breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
1 package (30 oz) frozen hashbrowns, thawed
1 lb breakfast sausage
1/4 cup flour
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 can (8 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough, cut into quarters
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large skillet, cook the breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned and crumbled, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the flour to absorb the grease.
- Slowly add the milk, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes until thickened. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- In the prepared baking dish, layer the thawed hashbrowns evenly on the bottom. Top with the sausage gravy mixture.
- Scatter the biscuit dough pieces over the gravy. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the casserole is bubbling.
- Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
If you have leftovers, store the casserole in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or in the oven at 350°F for 15-20 minutes.
You can freeze the casserole for up to 2 months. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and foil before freezing. When reheating from frozen, bake at 350°F for 45-50 minutes.
For a vegetarian version, substitute the sausage with sautéed vegetables like mushrooms and bell peppers.
For a spicy kick, add cayenne pepper or hot sauce to the gravy mixture.
Experiment with different cheese varieties like Monterey Jack, mozzarella, or pepper jack.
