Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prepare for the casserole assembly.
Cook Sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into small pieces for even cooking.
Make the Gravy: Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage and stir for 1 to 2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste. Gradually add the milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens into a creamy gravy. Season with salt, black pepper, and optionally garlic and onion powders for added flavor.
Assemble Casserole: Pour the sausage gravy into the prepared baking dish. Slice the refrigerated biscuits into halves or quarters and arrange them evenly over the gravy. If desired, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes until the biscuits turn golden brown and are cooked through.
Serve: Remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, try using spicy breakfast sausage instead of mild.
Add cooked vegetables such as bell peppers or onions to the sausage gravy to make the casserole heartier.
Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or microwave.
