Biscuits & Gravy Egg Bake Breakfast
I love breakfast- and the hearty egg bake is perfect when you have people to feed, I use this on Christmas Morning- It is well loved and tastes awesome!
Ingredients
Green Chile Sausage Gravy
1 lb. Jimmy Dean Spicy Pork Sausage
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons flour
2 cups Whole Milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 can Chopped Green Chiles
Egg Bake
8 Eggs
1/2 cup Whole Milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
12-ounce tube of Jumbo Buttermilk Biscuits (about 6–8 biscuits), cut into small cubes
1 cup Mild Cheddar Cheese
Instructions
Cook the Sausage: Brown the sausage in a large cast iron skillet. Remove from pan. Drain off excess grease.
Make the Gravy: Melt butter in the same cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour; stir until thickened, 2-3 minutes. Whisk in the milk, about 1/2 cup at a time, until a smooth gravy comes together. Add salt, diced green chiles, and sausage back to the gravy. Stir to combine.
Whisk the Eggs: In a separate bowl, whisk eggs with milk and salt.
Assemble the Egg Bake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place half of the biscuits over the bottom of a greased 9×13 pan. Pour eggs over top. Sprinkle with cheese and dollop with some of the gravy (but save some gravy for later). Arrange with remaining biscuits. Bake for 35 minutes, until eggs are set.
Eat Up: Serve slices warm from the oven, with a scoop of that green chili sausage gravy over the top (thin it out with a little more milk so it’s semi-pourable, since it usually thickens as it cools). Brunch dreams realized.
