Ingredients :
- 1 pound bulk breakfast sausage
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 ¼ cups milk
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
- 1 tablespoon butter, softened
- 6 large eggs
- 1 (16.3 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough
- 3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions :
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook, crumbling with the back of a spoon, until browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium and sprinkle flour evenly over sausage. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Add milk and stir, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook, stirring often, about 7 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Remove from heat.
- Crack eggs into the prepared baking dish and whisk in remaining salt and pepper until well blended. Cut each biscuit in quarters and arrange in a single layer over eggs. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese over the biscuits. Pour sausage gravy over the cheese and spread evenly. Top with remaining cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden and bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
