Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned and crumbly. Drain excess fat.
Spread the biscuit pieces evenly in the bottom of the dish.
Layer cooked sausage on top of biscuits.
Sprinkle half the cheddar cheese over sausage.
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Pour evenly over the biscuit-sausage layer.
In a saucepan, melt butter. Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute to form a roux.
Gradually whisk in milk until smooth and thickened (5–7 minutes).
Stir in salt, pepper, and sage.
Pour gravy evenly over the casserole mixture.
Top with remaining cheese.
Bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes, until golden brown and set in the middle.
Let cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

For a spicier version, use hot sausage instead of mild.
Feel free to add vegetables like bell peppers or spinach for added nutrition.
This casserole can be prepared the night before and baked in the morning.
