Why You’ll Love This Quick Biscuit And Sausage Egg Bake

  • It’s a complete breakfast in one pan: protein, carbs, and cheesy goodness.
  • Great for meal prep and freezer-friendly.
  • Kid-approved and crowd-pleasing.
  • Uses simple, store-bought ingredients you likely already have.

What Kind of Biscuits Should I Use?

Refrigerated biscuit dough works best for this recipe, especially varieties like buttermilk or homestyle biscuits. They bake up fluffy and absorb the egg mixture beautifully. Avoid flaky-layered biscuits, which can puff unevenly and affect the consistency of the dish.


Ingredients for the Quick Biscuit And Sausage Egg Bake

Sausage – Adds savory depth and satisfying protein. Use breakfast sausage or ground pork.

Eggs – The heart of the bake. They create a creamy, custardy texture that holds everything together.

Milk – Helps create a light, fluffy egg base. Whole milk is ideal for richness.

Cheddar Cheese – Melty, gooey, and sharp, cheddar ties the bake together with flavor.

Refrigerated Biscuit Dough – Cut into pieces, these bake into golden, tender pillows throughout the dish.

Salt and Pepper – Essential seasoning to balance and enhance flavor.

Green Onions – For a mild bite and fresh pop of color.


How To Make the Quick Biscuit And Sausage Egg Bake

Step 1: Cook the Sausage

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and no longer pink. Break it up with a spoon as it cooks, then drain excess grease.

Step 2: Prep the Biscuit Base

While the sausage cooks, cut the biscuit dough into quarters. Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and scatter the biscuit pieces evenly across the bottom.

Step 3: Add the Sausage and Cheese

Layer the cooked sausage evenly over the biscuit pieces. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top for a melty, cheesy layer.

Step 4: Mix and Pour the Eggs

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth. Pour the mixture evenly over the sausage and biscuit layers.

Step 5: Bake to Perfection

Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden. Let it cool slightly, then garnish with sliced green onions before serving.


How to Serve This Egg Bake

This bake yields 12 square servings and feeds 6 to 8 people, depending on portion size. Serve warm straight from the oven with a side of fruit or a crisp salad. It also pairs beautifully with hot sauce, salsa, or sour cream on the side for extra flavor.

How to Store This Egg Bake

Let the bake cool completely before storing. You can refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days. To freeze, wrap individual portions tightly in foil and store in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F or in the microwave for a quick meal.


Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this bake the night before?
Yes! Assemble everything, cover, and refrigerate overnight. Bake in the morning as directed, adding 5 extra minutes if baking cold.

What other cheese works well in this bake?
Mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or Pepper Jack can all be used for different flavor profiles.

Can I use homemade biscuits?
Absolutely, just make sure they’re cut into small pieces and partially baked before adding them to the dish to avoid sogginess.

Is it okay to add vegetables?
Yes! Bell peppers, spinach, mushrooms, or even tomatoes work great—just sauté them first so they don’t release too much moisture.

Can I double the recipe?
You can, but it’s best to use two pans for even cooking. Increase bake time by 5-10 minutes and check for doneness in the center.
