Ingredients

1 pound bulk breakfast sausage
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/4 cups milk
1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
1 tablespoon butter, softened
6 large eggs
1 (16 3/10 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough
3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2 Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook, crumbling with the back of a spoon, until browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
3 Reduce heat to medium and sprinkle flour evenly over sausage. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Add milk and stir, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook, stirring often, about 7 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Remove from heat.
4 Crack eggs into the prepared baking dish and whisk in remaining salt and pepper until well blended. Cut each biscuit in quarters and arrange in a single layer over eggs. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese over the biscuits. Pour sausage gravy over the cheese and spread evenly. Top with remaining cheese.
5 Bake in the preheated oven until golden and bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
