Ingredients

For the Casserole Base:

  • 1 (16 oz) can of refrigerated biscuits, cut into quarters
  • 2 cups frozen hashbrowns, thawed
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 6 large eggs
  • ¾ cup milk
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

For the Gravy:

  • 1 lb ground beef (replaces pork sausage)
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 ½ cups whole milk
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the cooked beef and stir to coat. Cook for 1–2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
  • Gradually add the milk while stirring constantly, forming a gravy. Add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Let it simmer for a few minutes until thickened. Remove from heat.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
  • In the greased baking dish, spread the biscuit quarters evenly across the bottom.
  • Layer thawed hashbrowns on top of the biscuits, then sprinkle with cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
  • Pour the egg mixture evenly over the top.
  • Spoon the beef gravy over everything, spreading it out gently.
  • Bake uncovered for 40–45 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
  • Let it rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • You can swap ground beef with pork sausage for a traditional touch or use turkey for a leaner option.

  • For a crispier base, pre-bake the biscuits for 5–7 minutes before adding other layers.

  • Don’t skip the resting time after baking—this helps the casserole set and slice cleanly.

  • Add-ins like spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers can enhance both nutrition and flavor.

  • This dish reheats well and is ideal for leftovers or weekday meal prep.
