Ingredients

  • 1 (8-count) tube refrigerated biscuits, (best not to use Grands becasue they puff up so much)
  • 1 pound breakfast sausage
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 cups milk (divided)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 7 eggs
  • 1 (8-ounce) block Colby Jack cheese (shredded)

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9X13-inch baking dish.

  2. 2

    Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces and scatter biscuit pieces across the bottom of the baking dish.

  3. 3

    Cook sausage in a large pan, crumbling it with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Once fully cooked, remove it with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate. I like to leave about 1/4 cup of sausage in the pan for the gravy.

  4. 4

    Add butter to the grease in the pan and set pan over medium heat. Add flour and stir and cook for 2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Gradually whisk in 2 cups of milk. Add garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Simmer until thickened. Remove from heat.

  6. 6

    Whisk together eggs with remaining 1/2 cup milk in a medium bowl. Season with a little salt and pepper.

  7. 7

    Sprinkle sausage over biscuits. Sprinkle 1/2 of cheese over sausage.

  8. 8

    Pour egg mixture on top, followed by gravy and remaining cheese. Bake for 30 minutes.
