Biscuit Dough
- 2 ½ cups (312.5 g) all-purpose flour
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 2 cups (490 g) buttermilk, room temperature
- ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, melted
Casserole
- 1 pound pork sausage
- ½ cup diced yellow onion
- 10 large eggs, room temperature
- ½ cup (122.5 g) whole milk, room temperature
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups (226 g) mild cheddar cheese, shredded,
- 1 cup (113 g) mozzarella cheese, shredded
- parsley, optional for garnish
Biscuit Dough
To a medium bowl, add flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Use a whisk to sift the ingredients.
Pour in the buttermilk and stir until mostly combined, being careful not to overwork the batter.
Pour the melted butter into the baking dish. Place the dough on top of the butter and use a spatula (or your hands) to evenly spread the dough out to the edges of the pan.
Casserole
To a large skillet over medium heat, add pork sausage and onion. Cook until the pork sausage is browned with no pink remaining (about 8 minutes). Drain excess grease and add the pork in an even layer over the dough.
In a large bowl combine eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk until combined.
Fold in both cheeses. Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the sausage.
Bake 40 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let the breakfast bake rest for about 10 minutes before cutting and serving. This allows the butter to be absorbed into the biscuits. Top with parsley for garnish (optional).
