Oven-Baked Sausage, Cheese, and Gravy Breakfast Bake

Ingredients

- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 1 (16-ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- 2 cups prepared country-style gravy
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Prepare Baking Dish:
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.

3. Cook Sausage:
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it apart with a spatula, until fully cooked and browned, about 8 minutes. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.

4. Layer Biscuit Base:
Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough. Cut each biscuit into quarters and evenly spread the pieces on the bottom of the greased baking dish.

5. Add Sausage:
Spoon the cooked sausage over the biscuit pieces, ensuring a uniform coverage.

6. Cheese Layer:
Scatter the shredded cheese evenly over the sausage layer.

7. Prepare Gravy:
Prepare the country-style gravy according to package instructions if using a mix, or use pre-prepared gravy. Stir in the freshly ground black pepper.

8. Pour Gravy:
Pour the prepared gravy over the cheese layer, spreading it to cover the entire surface.

9. Bake:
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

10. Cool and Serve:
Remove from the oven and allow the dish to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
