A Fun twist to the traditional biscuits and gravy recipe!
Just when you thought biscuits and gravy couldn’t get any better or easier to make, along come breakfast casserole with gravy! One thing I’ve come to realize is that casseroles aren’t just for dinner! I love turning some of our favorite meals into easy to make casseroles.
My kids went crazy over this gravy biscuit casserole. They loved the yummy biscuits and the sausage gravy smothered on top was a huge hit! Anytime the kids approve of a meal, I call that a win!
The best part is that this casserole is easy enough that you can have the kids help cut each biscuit with a pizza cutter while you cook sausage. I love involving the kids with the preparation of our meals and they do, too! This has become our new favorite comfort food!
Ingredients you need:
- 2 cans of Phillsbury Grand’s Biscuits
- 1 pound of breakfast sausage
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- 4 tablespoons of flour
- ½ tsp of garlic powder
- salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 cups of milk (might need more if gravy is too thick)
How to make biscuits and gravy casserole recipe:
Cut your biscuits into quarters with a pizza cutter.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Spray the 9×13 pan with non-stick spray.
Lay the biscuits on the bottom of the pan. Do not smash together. Just sprinkle along the bottom.
Meanwhile, brown the sausage in a medium size skillet and drain the grease.
Pour the sausage over the biscuits leaving some of the sausage in the pan for the gravy.
Place the casserole dish in the oven and cook for about 30 minutes (until biscuits are cooked through).
Right before the casserole is done, return the skillet with the sausage to the stove. Add the 2 tablespoons of butter.
Over medium heat melt the butter. Add in the flour, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Stir around allowing it to cook for a few minutes.
Pour in the 2 cups of milk and stir with a whisk combining the flour with milk.
Heat to a small boil stirring constantly, allowing the gravy to thicken. Add more milk if you need it thinner, or allow it to cook longer (Stirring constantly) if you need it to be thicker.
Taste the gravy and add more salt if needed.
Pour your homemade gravy over the casserole and serve!
My kids go crazy over the sausage gravy!
The trick is to save some of the sausage to make a delicious sausage gravy. That is what really makes the gravy biscuit casserole amazing! It is like magic when you pour gravy over the biscuits! My entire family loves this recipe and I know you will love this recipe too!

What goes good with Biscuits and Gravy?
You can enjoy biscuits and gravy casserole as a meal all by itself or add some other breakfast favorites. Since biscuits and gravy casserole is a heavy, filling dish, many people prefer lighter options to serve alongside it.
When we are trying to keep it on the lighter side we will sometimes serve this casserole with a side of fresh fruit or scrambled eggs. Depending on what fruit is in season some of our favorites are strawberries, raspberries or blueberries. You could even make a simple fruit salad as a quick and easy side dish.
Some other great side options include crockpot breakfast casserole, pancakes, and even hashbrowns. The sausage gravy compliments them all well! Either way, no one will be leaving the table hungry!

I’m glad you enjoyed it Stephanie! 🙂
Made this with honey butter biscuits and it was great ? ? ! Thanks
Could this be made ahead and frozen?
I think that it would be fine to freeze the biscuits and cooked sausage but I would still make the gravy the day that I cook this casserole.
Hello, I would like to know, if there it’s possible that I can make this dish the “night before” WITHOUT freezing it, (just covering and popping it in the fridge over night and baking it in the morning when I get up 🙂 Thanks for your input!
BTW, I LOVE your Facebook page, I am always getting recipes off it and making tons of new stuff. My family is now so over joyed with my new and improved cooking skills + the amazing meals/desserts I’ve been experimenting with! LOL
