Ingredients & Substitutions

Biscuits: Look for Southern Homestyle Buttermilk Biscuits, not the flaky variety. Or, use the dough from my Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits.

Sausage Links: Be sure to buy precooked sausage links. They are already cooked, so they just need to be warmed up when baked with the other ingredients. For a little sweetness to the dish, try it with maple sausage. If you are not using precooked sausage, you will have to cook that ahead of time.

Cheese: I used mild cheddar cheese, but you could definitely try this with almost any kind of cheese.

Gravy: To make this recipe super simple, just use a packet of gravy mix and add some milk to it before adding it to the skillet. Or, you could also make homemade gravy to use. We did test the recipe without gravy, but the biscuits were a little dry.

Variations: We loved this dish as-is, but there are a lot of easy add-in options, for sure. Try adding bacon, onions, and/or green peppers, just to get you started.

Can I Make this Ahead of Time?

Sure! If you want to get this assembled the night before, that will work. Simply put all the ingredients in the oven-safe skillet, cover it, and store it in the refrigerator overnight. The following morning, pop the biscuits and gravy breakfast bake into the oven for a hot and filling breakfast.

Can I Make the Breakfast Bake in a Different Pan?

Yes. Although I love oven-safe skillets, like cast iron, for their even heating and retaining heat, you could use a 9×13-inch baking dish instead.

How to Store Biscuits and Gravy Breakfast Bake

After being baked and served, if you have any leftovers, they are easy to store. You can store the breakfast bake in the refrigerator, in an airtight container, for up to three days. Or, freeze the leftovers in a freezer-safe container.

Can I Freeze the Breakfast Bake?

Certainly! If you want to freeze the breakfast bake, cook it in a freezer-safe dish. (I like to use a disposable, aluminum foil baking dish.) After it has baked, let it cool completely. Then, wrap the dish with both plastic wrap and aluminum foil. When ready to enjoy, let it thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat it in the oven.

  1. Loved this breakfast dish. I followed another’s comment and make another batch of gravy to put on top when served. It was delicious and very filling. I cooked in my iron skillet with melted butter in the bottom so no sticking. Makes a lot!

    1. Why on Earth would anyone need to provide you something else instead of canned biscuits???!! If you don’t buy canned, I’m assuming you make them. MAKE your OWN biscuits…

    2. Sometimes in the bakery section of the supermarkets they have pre-cooked biscuits. Buttermilk biscuits. You could give those a try.

  2. Your breakfast biscuits casseroles look fabulous!
    I would definitely makes these for a brunch with a
    light salad or even for dinner!!! YUMMO!

      1. If you read the notes that go with the recipe, you will see that she has the option for homemade along with links to her recipes

      2. Sorry … the recipe alone does not. You have to read the article leading up to the recipe saying you can make your own.

  3. Love this!! Send more recipes. I make this the night before & take it to work for my co-workers. I am an ICU & ER nurse & this is easy for us to eat on the run

    1. We did enjoy the recipe but the gravy didn’t come through like we thought. When I reheat I will make up another packet of gravy to pour on top.
