  • Top the biscuit layer with the precooked sausage crumbles. Top the sausage crumbles with 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.

  • Transfer the dish to the oven to bake for 30 - 40 minutes or until the edges are set and the top is a beautiful golden brown. If the cheese is browning a little too much for your liking, top the casserole with foil and continue to bake until the center is set. The internal temperature should read 160 F on an instant read digital thermometer. 
    Cool the gooey cheesy biscuit casserole for 5 - 10 minutes. If you would like to top with fresh herbs, gravy or your favorite condiment such as hot sauce.

Notes

Store: Fully cool the sausage, egg and cheesy biscuit casserole to room temperature. Cover the casserole with plastic wrap or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 - 4 days.
