Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 (16 oz) can refrigerated biscuit dough, cut into quarters
- 1 lb breakfast sausage
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
- Salt to taste

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until browned and crumbled. Do not drain.
- Sprinkle flour over the sausage and stir to coat. Cook for 1–2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

- Layer biscuit pieces in the bottom of the prepared dish.
- Pour the sausage gravy evenly over the biscuits.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top if using.
- Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, or until biscuits are golden and cooked through.
- Remove from oven, let rest for 5 minutes, garnish with parsley, and serve warm.
Notes
- Use spicy sausage for added heat or maple sausage for a touch of sweetness.
- Can be assembled the night before and baked in the morning.
- Great served with eggs or a side of fruit for a complete breakfast.
