👩‍🍳 Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line with parchment paper.

Step 2: Cook the Sausage

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and crumbled. Drain any excess grease.

Step 3: Cut the Biscuits

Open the biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters. Spread evenly across the bottom of your baking dish.

Step 4: Whisk the Eggs

In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

Step 5: Layer It Up

Sprinkle the cooked sausage over the biscuit pieces. Pour the egg mixture on top. Sprinkle with shredded cheese.

Step 6: Bake

Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the biscuits are golden. Check the center with a toothpick—it should come out clean.

Step 7: Garnish and Serve

Top with green onions, extra cheese, or a drizzle of hot sauce. Serve warm!
