Ingredients:

  • 1 can (16.3 oz / 462g) refrigerated biscuits
  • 1 lb (450g) ground breakfast sausage
  • 2 tbsp (28g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 large eggs
  • ½ cup (120ml) whole milk
  • ½ tsp (3g) kosher salt
  • ½ tsp (1g) freshly cracked black pepper
  • ¼ tsp (1g) garlic powder
  • 2 cups (225g) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • ¼ cup (5g) chopped fresh chives

Instructions:

  1. Place the ground sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, breaking the meat apart with a spatula, until the sausage is fully browned and fragrant. Drain the excess grease and set the meat aside.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  3. Cut each canned biscuit into quarters and press the biscuit pieces evenly across the bottom of the pan to form a solid layer.
  4. Scatter the browned sausage evenly over the biscuit layer.
  5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until the mixture is smooth.
  6. Pour the egg custard slowly over the sausage and biscuit layer, ensuring the liquid fills all the gaps.
  7. Top the casserole with a generous layer of shredded cheddar cheese.
  8. Bake for 30–40 minutes until the eggs are set and the cheese is bubbly and golden-brown.
