Instructions
- Brown 1 pound ground breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat until completely cooked. Drain excess grease and set meat aside.

- Scatter biscuit quarters across the cheese layer, covering the entire surface.
- Whisk 6 large eggs with 1 cup milk, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, and ¼ teaspoon garlic powder until smooth.
- Gently pour the egg mixture over the casserole, ensuring all ingredients are moistened.
- Bake at 350°F for 35-40 minutes until biscuits turn golden and eggs set completely.
- Allow casserole to rest 5 minutes before cutting into servings. Enjoy your hearty breakfast creation.
Notes
- Use room temperature eggs for a smoother, more even egg mixture that blends perfectly into the casserole.
- Opt for lean sausage to reduce excess grease and keep the dish from becoming too heavy or soggy.
- Thaw hashbrowns slightly before using to help them cook more evenly and prevent excess moisture in the casserole.
- Customize the flavor by trying different cheese varieties like pepper jack or adding chopped green onions for extra zest.
