Ingredients
-
Biscuits (amount depends on your preference, typically 4-6 biscuits, cut into pieces)
-
6 large eggs
-
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
-
1 tablespoon olive oil (for greasing the baking dish)
For the Gravy:
-
1 pound sausage (preferably sausage with green chiles)
-
1/4 cup flour
-
2 cups milk
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
-
Prepare the biscuits: Cut the biscuits into small bite-sized pieces and layer them at the bottom of the baking dish.
-
Make the sausage gravy:
-
In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks. Once browned, sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir to combine.
-
Slowly add the milk, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Simmer until the gravy thickens, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
-
Prepare the egg mixture:
-
In a bowl, whisk the eggs and cheddar cheese together until well combined. Pour over the biscuit pieces in the baking dish.
-
-
Assemble the bake: Pour the sausage gravy evenly over the egg and biscuit mixture.
-
Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 30–40 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and golden brown on top.
-
Serve: Let it cool slightly before serving. Slice and enjoy!
