Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound breakfast sausage
  • 1 can refrigerated biscuits 16.3 ounces (8 large)
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese divided
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 green onions sliced

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • 9x13 inch baking dish
  • whisk
  • knife
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • food thermometer

Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish. Cook the sausage in a skillet over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, breaking it into crumbles. Drain well.
  2. Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces and spread them in the dish in a single layer.
  3. Sprinkle the sausage and 1 cup of the cheese over the biscuit pieces.
  4. Whisk the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until smooth. Pour evenly over the biscuits, pressing the pieces down lightly.
  5. Bake for 35 minutes, sprinkle on the remaining ½ cup cheese, and bake 5 to 10 minutes more, until puffed and golden and the center reaches 160°F (71°C). The FDA advises cooking casseroles and other egg dishes to 160°F.
  6. Rest 10 minutes, top with green onions, and serve warm.

Notes

Cook until the center reaches 160°F (71°C).
Cut biscuits into quarters.
Leftovers: refrigerate within 2 hours, use within 3 to 4 days, reheat to 165°F.
