Ingredients

• 1 pound bulk breakfast sausage, hot or mild
• 1/3 cup flour
• 4 cups whole milk
• 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
• 1 and 1/2 to 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
• 6 eggs
• 1/2 cup milk
• 3/4 teaspoon seasoning salt
• 1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• pepper to taste
• 1 can Pillsbury Grands Biscuits
• 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

Directions

• In a large skillet, brown the sausage over medium-high heat, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon.
• Reduce the heat to medium-low. When the sausage is cooked and no longer pink, sprinkle half of the 1/3 cup flour on the sausage and stir until it is absorbed. Add the rest a little at a time, and stir until all the flour is soaked up. Stir for 1 more minute to get the flour taste out.
• Turn the heat to medium. Pour in the milk, 1 cup at a time, stirring to thicken it up each time.
• Once you have added all the milk, continue stirring for another 10-12 minutes until the gravy has thickened up some.
• Add 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt and 1 and 1/2 to 2 teaspoons pepper.
• Meanwhile, mix together the eggs. Break the eggs into a large bowl or stand mixer and whisk. Add 1/2 cup milk, 3/4 teaspoons seasoning salt, mustard, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste.*
• Grease a 9x13 inch casserole dish. Open the can of biscuits and separate all the biscuits. Use scissors to cut each biscuit into 4 pieces.
• Drop the quartered biscuits onto the prepared pan and spread them out evenly.
• Pour the egg mixture over the biscuits.
• Sprinkle with 1 cup cheese.
• Pour the gravy over the cheese and spread it out.
• (At this point you can cover tightly and refrigerate overnight).
• Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F oven for about 38-45 minutes if you are making is right away.
• If you have just taken it out of the fridge, cover with aluminum foil.
• There is no need to preheat the oven first. Just put it in the oven and turn it on to 350 degrees.
• Bake for about 30 minutes, then remove the foil. Continue baking for another 15-30 minutes, or until the biscuits have browned and the sauce is bubbly. (45-60 minutes total if its been in the fridge overnight).
